Alex...

I think I speak for us all when I tell you that we want to see a real photo of you! That photo in your Av is tiny, we can't see exactly what you look like.

We would like photos, please. ;o)

Cool. You look great. There will never be a picture of me on here though. I am not big on having my photo on the net.

I think I speak for OD when I say that some of us are neurotic about our privacy. I've already had two cyberstalkers. :biggrin0:( Privacy is key. Sad yet true.

I had a cyberstalker when I told the truth about a MX surgeon. His paid posters tried to chase me away. It did not work. Cyberstalking PMs available upon request.

OD knows my history with cyberstalkers, she learned from me. NEVER reveal personal info.

This is the first time I've ever been on anything like this ... you very well have a point ... perhaps I will remove my photo and replace it with an avatar ... I never get too much information about myself - just generalities; never specifics

I got over the fear of having my photos online. The first few years after WLS I was really worried about many different things. Look at Facebook and other social networking web sites. Almost every single person has their pics posted.

      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. 🤞
