Hello everyone
My name is Lisa and Im from Northern NJ

I'm so glad I've found this site
I'm in the process of getting VSG surgery.

I started back in October with all my pre op appointments...

got everything done and was getting close to my surgery
It was schedualed for March 16th.
I was getting really excited !
I had all my supplies
and really had to get myself mentally prepared!!!
sooooo the day before my surgery my surgeon called me and told me my surgery was cancelled
Bc of the corona virus
I was so upset... I couldn't even control it... a wave of emotions just came over me... I knew that it got cancelled for a reason but I was just devastated … why me why couldn't I have just gotten it done... I had a moment of just being selfish and then I pulled myself back
this virus is really scary!!
Long story short my surgeon called and rescheduled me for June 1st
so I am just trying to stay positive and pray that that will work out
and I pray that I will financially be able to handle all of this
I guess im just venting I know I am not alone in this and that there is so much worse things that ppl are going through
but my life right now is just so horrible living with this weight and I cant stand myself anymore
I guess just wanted to reach out and see if there's anyone going through this and can relate
Thanks guys!!!!

I'm sending all the positive vibes I can your way! June 1st will be here before you know it. As I'm sure you've seen, we've had many members who are in your exact situation. I wish you all the best and fingers crossed for your new date!!!

Many people have had theirs canceled and were so upset and frustrated, so you are not alone. the fact that you doc called to reschedule is great news.

I’m glad you have a date to count down to. I would’ve been disappointed too. Living with all this weight is depressing

Hi Lisa!

I am going through the same thing, girl. Just got insurance approval the day before they stopped scheduling electives... so just waiting for them to open up shop and we will be good to go!

Hang in there, our time will come and it will have been totally worth the weight (haha, pun intended).

Hi Lisa! I wanted to check in and see how you are doing? I know half the time has passed and the rescheduled surgery date is less than a month away. Are you still on the schedule for June 1?
