  1. I have had 3 c sections, two were emergency and my last was planned. I have also had my gall bladder removed. I survived those just fine. I am terrified I can't survive the sleeve surgery. I think its all in my head. Can anyone share their experiences with these verses the VGS?
  2. I am just starting this process. Next month is my seminar, then the consult. I am looking for someone to mentor me on this. My bff has a lap band so I do get a little help from her but it's obvious not the same. I just need someone to bounce things off of and advice etc

    C section vs VGS

    This is pretty comforting to hear. My last c section was planned and I felt the recovery was OK and my gall bladder removal wasnt to bad either. Maybe I CAN do this!!!

    C section vs VGS

    Sorry I mean VSG lol
  7. I have not had the surgery yet so I'm totally no help.... just wanted to say congrats on your date. My birthday is March 9th so your post caught my eye
  8. Hello everyone. I just started my journey. I haven't yet spoken with a surgeon only have the referral. Im scared to death. I know its common and everyone gets a little scared but as I picture myself going into surgery Im afraid I will chicken out. I do have severe anxiety so that doesn't help. I know its not very likely I will not make it out and I have to do this or I will reach a early death. Im just about to be 37, 5ft 2, 255 pounds. I have been this weight since I had my first child 19 yrs ago. Not only am I anxious about the surgery, I'm scared of the results. LOL... sounds ridiculous, I know. All I have really known is this weight. I know in my heart I will be so happy, but my head is running wild with thoughts of not knowing myself anymore. I dont handle change well, but I really want to be healthy. Counseling will help hopefully. Im also a huge sugar addict and love carbs (hence why I am at this weight). Which I have learned will be a big no no if I want to be successful. Anyone else have things fears and hurdles?
