You deserve it MORE than those who stick their noses up because you have taken charge of your life and are making positive changes. So climb in that chair shoulders straight and say I am worth it! Beside even those skinny little size 0's have crosses to bear as well. Enjoy!!!!

Please don't feel that way...I work at an upscale salon & believe me, they all have their insecurities as well! You should walk in there & be proud of how far you've come, you're so worth it!

Big hugs to you, Carolinagirl......Please enjoy your day!

You march in there, holding your head high and proud! Look how much weight you've lost already!! I mean, just think, you're 73 pounds lighter!!

One of my favorite sayings: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent".

Don't give them consent. ;)

Carolinagirl, I'm so happy for YOU! Did you do a total makeover?

I'm not sure about Nellis having an air show but, we were certainly busy on the strip...

      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.
