Haven't been on here in quite a while, but I had to throw in my latest NSV... I finally wear a pants size that matches my shoe size (6 and 6). Yahoo!

Sounds like everyone is kicking butt and doing AWESOME! Yay! :)

quick NSV-- I had the energy today to go all day getting the house ready for a reception. No naps and not hungry at all! AMAZING! Had to stop and remind myself to eat a yogurt at 3 for lunch!

I love this sleeve-it is still working for me! yipee!!!

I've got 2 unsolicited compliments in less than 24 hrs! Today, a friend of mine (who knows about my surgery) saw me in my tight gym clothes and later texted me to say "OMG, your body looks amazing! What's your BMI, like 22?" And yesterday at a party, a friend who doesn't know about my surgery came up to me and randomly asked me "What's the secret to your toned arms?" I'm quite flattered, especially about the last comment, since she doesn't know about my VSG!

While at dinner with friends one mentioned that I'm no longer over the table and actually have a few inches between my stomach and the table now. I didn't even notice till he said something. (he also mentioned my breast look bigger lol)

I flew home last night for my spring break (I'm the only person in the world that LEAVES Florida FOR New Jersey on spring break haha), and I was able to put my tray table down with room to spare, and I didn't have to feel guilty about "spilling" into the seat next to me because I had room to spare. 'Twas awesome.

I can't wait to fly again and see what it feels like to not be crammed into the seat or have the seatbelt just simply go across you and buckle - no squeezing, straining or sucking in to get it fastened :D

I was having lunch the other day with a friend who is an apartment property manager. While we were eating, her maintenance person came in to eat and he texted her that I was hot (totally makes me laugh) I am 43. He is 24. So silly, but made me smile all day - A 24 year old thought I was hot hahaha :heh:

I love flying now. I'm the person people WANT to have sit next to them because I have room to spare. I also have to tighten the seat belt every time I fly now instead of stretching it to its limits.

I used to take my jacket off and put it over my lap so the stewardess couldn't see that I wasn't able to fasten my seatbelt. I always figured that I wouldn't need one anyways as tightly as I was wedged into that tiny seat, there was no chance of my popping out and bouncing around the cabin!

      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.
