So I get sleeved on Monday. Not scared yet. But I am worried about failing again. I'm also know that some people are looking for me to fail. Just coworkers not family. But today my attitude toward them will change. I will not only succeed for myself but I will prove them wrong. And be cute while doing it !!!

You do not need to prove anything to anyone but yourself. Congrats on the sleeve.

I think all of us who are sleeved have thought the same.... I'll be the only one it doens't work for, nothing else worked so why should this??

Put it away..... box that thought up and mail it with no return address - it won't be you. You will rock your sleeve!! And you will make jaws drop when you walk into a room in the months to come.

Good luck for Monday.

This is it Von. The end all of diets.

And it will work...you know it... and I know it.

I'll be sleeved on Monday as well. Party at my hospital bed. Bring your own Protein shake. haha

THERE IS NO QUESTION..... IT WILL WORK. :tongue_smilie: Remember your surgeon is cutting 2/3 of your stomach off and it is gone forever. Again no question....it will work. Good luck and best wishes on Monday.

My sleeve is set up for September 7th....I thought I was the only one that might be having the secret fear that this won't work for me....sure hoping and praying it does! Good luck on Monday!

I'm in the same "secretly worried I will be the 1 person this doesn't work for" boat. But we gotta believe. Look at all the amazing success stories and pictures on this forum! Good luck with your surgery and the road to your new life!:001_smile:

Monday sleevers unite! I'll roll on up to you, Lina, with my IV pole. We can do all the C's...commiserate, celebrate....etc!

We all think that---I STILL have that thoght in the back of my head, 6 weeks out. But I just ignore it and keep doing what the doc says. I've screwed up a few times, but I always lose or stay the same if I screwed up, but I never gain. That's proof enough for me. This WILL work. For you and for me.

I mean, look, my screwup was to have 1,200 calories one day. That's a Weight Watcher's diet calorie count! Our stomachs are so small that even when we blow it, it's not epic like before surgery, and you just start fresh the next day. It HAS to work. Even our screwups are foolproof (as long as they aren't habits)!

So, VSG WILL work for you.
