Hello.

I read some of your posts and love your dedication. I am just like you ... sticking exactly to what the Doc tells me and not veering even the slightest bit off course.

I live by Lake Arrowhead, but I work all over S. Cal and my Doc is in Norwalk. I am usually free by about 1pm when I'm in the field. What is your schedule like in the daytime?

Hi all,

Wow I am so excited that people are nearby or close. I was banded Nov. 15, 2010 FYI. I am eating soft Proteins only and shakes if I want ......uggggg

I did shakes for a month straight ouch that one hurts.

I am following everything to a T but far from perfect I am normal and still think about food I just don't choose to have it. I am trying to make this work. I would love to start a group for anyone who is interested. All I ask is that people try to stay positive it's ok If you mess up I just want positive energy around me.

Thanks mountain girl I apppreciate the kind words and I'm glad that your sticking to it also.

I am currently available most days I have a very flexible schedule.

Santa monica is pretty close and yorba linda and carson. Come all is welcome!!!!!!

Please feel free to email me and we can all start figuring this out.

Friday and Sunday works for me this week.

Looking forward to some fun.

T

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
