I look forward to my van not shrieking in protest when I climb in the drivers seat. Maybe getting to ride rides at carnivals and amusement parks with my children. Umm fitting in my future in laws car because none of the seat belts actually fit me.

Oh the grunting yes or almost peeing when you sneeze because you have so much weight in your bladder. Does anyone else feel like when you smell a fart ppl automatically look at you because your fat that you must have done it. Omg maybe its just me but I honestly feel that way.

Not having to worry if I will fit in a booth at a restaurant... Or anywhere!

Self confidence!

Being able to do things without getting so tired!

Since ive lost some weight i have lots more self confidence because i look and feel better. the compliments dont hurt either, especially from men ! ( Im married , not dead !) The cuter clothes are in a smaller size, i have more energy , im sleeping better and am able to run a little. Im wearing a belt ! A cute one ! etc. One day after i had lost about 30 lbs i had an unexpected nsv. I sat down on the couch to paint my toenails, and i very easily pulled my heel up to my rear where i could easily reach my feet . i had not been able to paint my own toenails comfortably in many , many years because my big ol' stomach had been in the way ! Not anymore ! So im looking forward to hiking, riding a horse , being a runner, dropping more weight, having my pants get too big again, getting rid of my sleep apnea machine, climbing in to our fishing boat without rocking it, etc................im saving money because i eat less, so i spend it at Goodwill on clothes that will fit my shrinking body !

I just realized today that one of the biggest things I miss is stamina to do anything. I went to bed at midnight because I was up doing Algebra (hate it). My boys got back from Daddy's yesterday and the oldest wasn't feeling well. Come about 3 am he woke me up because he was throwing up. I was up with him from 3-6 and today I swear I was sick too. It wore me out being up taking care of him. I have felt crappy all day. I want to be able to take care of my kids and my finace without it causing me exhaustion and near collapse.

      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.
