Greetings all! Congrats to all those who have been recently sleeved and whoopee for the success of others. i was sleeved in July. I have lost about 80 pounds. My life is totally different and feels like my own again. I love the way that I look and feel. I am doing well physically. I had a very easy surgery, but regardless, it will be worthwhile. Trust me!

Johnathan - I figured it out. I was using the app and that doesn't have as many features as the full website. Awesome pics! ;)

Shange - Keep up the good work! I feel the difference in my life already. It's amazing!

James - I'm central California about 2 hours from the bay.

I'm so surprised at the amount of people on this forum. I had no idea...let's keep it going!

Johnathan - I'm already seeing a huge difference already and I can't believe how many people have noticed as well. I was caught off guard when someone asked me how I did it. I don't really know if I want to be open about it at this point since I'm still new and learning about myself. Do you tell people?

I'm sure that people are checking you out now, don't discount yourself. ;)

My last month is when I really started feeling really good about myself. Believe me, I don't discount it! Lol

I tell everyone! Lol I don't care if they don't like or approve! I'm proud as hell and nobody will take that from me! But it's different for everyone. I'll talk to anyone about almost anything lol

I'm not ashamed or anything I am just trying to get comfortable in my new skin. I'm like you I don't care what others think about the procedure as I know I made the right choice for me.

That is what I said. I told them I was watching what I ate and was following a low calorie, low fat and high Protein diet. So, in theory I wasn't lying either! Haha

      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.
