In my opinion, the opposite sex fears change. You know the opposite sex will look at you different. I asked my boyfriend to put his feelings aside and look at my struggle. Good luck.

As I tell my friend, I am glad the Lord takes souls and not body because mine won't be recognizable. ;)

Sometimes a spouse doesn't support this decision. I think it's unfair of them to expect you to stay heavy with current or future health problems assured to arise. If someone I loved could get something done to prolong their life and prevent suffering, I would do everything in my power to make it happen.

I am sorry you are going through this.

At first my husband encouraged me to exercise and eat healthy. Well obviously that didn't work out (after trying for yrs)... Now I have the band, 30lbs lighter, and he loves every minute of it. Just the other day he was griping because I can't finish my plate and he has been eating my food- well he has gained a good 10lbs since I was banded! lol Ya'll just keep your head up because when your looking good and feeling great they will have changed their mind about the lap band.

My husband was against it at first but once he went to the pre op classes with me he felt better. I would say it took about two to three months post op for him to see what a difference it is making in my life and health. I think a lot of men think we will leave them once we lose the weight.

      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
