Im in corpus! i was sleeved in august but even at 8 months im struggling and would definitely love any support! Especially with ppl who are going thru the same thing so please message me if possible :-)

Karebearr100 I'm from corpus also. Had my surgery August 4th. How are you doing??

It's frustrating to say the least. I'm to anxious trying to think about something else. Sorry I'm late responding, but did you ever get ur date? Mine was confirmed for August 4th. I know girl the waiting game is rough..

I told all my family this past weekend when we were all visiting after a baby shower. I just decided to do it even though I was nervous how my aunts and cousins would respond. But They were very supportive and even my cousin asked for my Dr's phone number because she's been considering it herself. That's the reason i'm deciding to tell everyone. Because maybe someone who's overweight like me,feeling hopeless, will see my success and I can tell them with this tool it is possible. Seeing my friends success is what got me to look into vsg myself so.. Not judging anyone's choices because I understand but just saying this is how I personally feel about it.

Are they saying that something might happen to you soon And they're letting you know it's gonna be Ok?

I was getting close to my 3 month weigh in with my dr and I hadn't lost anything. So I did The Scarsedale Diet for 2 wks and lost 12 lbs! You lose 1 lb a day if you stick to it correctly. I'm trying to do it the rt way now but it helped when I needed to lose weight in a hurry. Losing weight is hard. If we we're great at it we wouldn't need the surgery.

I'm getting sleeved in August. I asked my doctor about the lap band. He said while people can lose a large amount of weight,most drs are dropping it because there are more and more reports of complications. And while complications are growing, people are also in the long run eventually gaining the weight back plus some. I had a friend have it and she gained all her weight back. The sleeve is growing in popularity and has excellent success and statistically most keep off the weight for at least 10 years. I'm not trying to bash anyones decision but just sharing what I've read and heard.

We were in the same July Sleevers group but I found out my date might get changed to August too! Won't know till Tuesday but we'll see.

Guys join our July Sleevers Facebook page! It's secret so ppl can't see it. You have to be asked into it so you can request me as a friend and I'll add u to the group! facebook.com/mrs.pamelaclark
