Hello I am scheduled for gastric sleeve procedure on February, 4th (Tijuana, Mexico). Scared:)

Who is your doc?

Just a few days away from staring my pre-op diet. Surgery is scheduled for Feb 16th! I think I'm more paranoid about the pre-op diet than the actual surgery. I have 2 weeks of eating a specific products purchased from our Bariatric Dept. There is a wide variety and I'm sure it will be fine BUT.... If I don't lose weight they cancel the surgery.. In writing this I see how silly it sounds but I can't seem to shake the feeling! Could use some prayers!!

I'm right there with you @LLB2015. I start might pre-op diet tomorrow... I'm prepared as can be, but still worried about it!

[cmcbr606 1]

I was scheduled for the 11th but they're saying they want to postpone because I didn't lose enough weight in between appointments. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I cried on the phone with my surgeon. He said he didn't expect me to be upset but I honestly don't know what else he did expect.

Just feeling discouraged..

[mcclayne 36]

Postpone for how long, how much do you have to lose before surgery?

Don't get discouraged, get determined! You can do this...

They didn't give specifics.. They don't think I have the right attitude apparently which I strongly disagree with. There's a lot to the story but it's hard. I'm a teacher so it was planned for feb vacation. Now at the earliest it would be April.

I am sorry to hear that. Don't be discouraged. Take it as a challenged. My op was postponed twice cos the theatre was fully booked and the doctor was away at a conference!! Doc even asked me if I was upset!!!!! Told me the postponement means I can enjoy my Christmas!!! OK!!!!??????? NOT. Anyway after all that my op will be done on Feb 2. It will happen my dear just don't be discouraged. Push on... Have hope.

A shout out to all of us getting re-birthed in Febuary! I am a 45 year old mom, 4ft 10" weighing in at 155. I have a BMI of 33, and deal with health issues like High Blood pressure and sleep apnea. So I am headed to Tajuana, Mexico on the 5th. Getting sleeved with A Lighter Me. So far very impressed with the structure of the company.

[mcclayne 36]

That's great. Congrats on making the decision. Good luck with preparing now, I have surgery today and I can tell you, the last month was a lot of mental and physical prep I believe to have me in a calm place this morning.

Really excited for you!
