Looking for a California buddy!



Recommended Posts

Hey all I know I have not posted much lately. I have been so dang busy. I need a off/on line buddy. someone I can call and talk to. Someone who wants to venture to MX with me and get another fill. Hey I'll even drive. I just don't know the Dr.s there since I went to Monterrey. I have done incredibly well but I have that last bit and I need some help. I don't get it at home because my husband thinks I eat too little, and I look great, so he does not see the need. But I came into this so that I could not just get my life back ...which I did, but also, so that for once in my life I would not be obease. I am still in the 200's and I want to reach my goal... but between my skinny ass friends and chubby chasing husband, I have no one to relate too. So if you need a Phone friend/ in person friend...and I mean friend, I am great at listining and caring and being there. I have a hectic schedule but I keep my phone with me at all times... let me know. Drop me a pm with your number or ask for mine and let's chatt!

Where are you in CA? There's a good active SanDiego Bandster group - I'm sure you could find several banded buddies for on/off line support and MX trips. Look at my post in CA - I post the link to the SanDiego Yahoo! group.

I'm in Gardena, which is near LAX. I've been thinking about getting a tiny fill recently and could probably be conviced to go see Dr. Kuri with you. I've been down there a few times to see him. I was also banded in Monterrey MX :(.

I don't live in California anymore, but would love to have a friend to talk to over the phone. There is no one close to where I live that i have found on this board yet. If you're interested PM me.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
