Recommended Posts

We had a wonderful time today at Mimi's Cafe. It was hilarious to see us all eating together. The whole bill came to $16.00 for ALL 5 of us :) to eat (thanks again Pam)...CAN YOU IMAGINE??? We spent 4 hours sharing sleeve information. It was awesome :). We are planning to meet again next month. Please let me know if you are interested in joining us.

I had a terrific time today sharing similar experiences and gaining new insight into what lies ahead (great stuff!!). It was wonderful meeting you Sophia, Pam and Peggy. Thank you so much for taking care of the tab, Pam! I am looking forward to our next get together and a "smaller" picture! Hope more other sisters can join us!

Thank you again for uniting us! :)

Today was GREAT! So sorry I was late but appreciate you all waiting for me :-) There is nothing like being able to chat face to face with people that actually understand what we are going through. We talked and talked and I could have kept going - so nice to be able to actually relate to others in this journey!

Looking forward to getting together next month to compare notes!

Thanks Sophia for putting this all together. I hope more people will join us next time!

PS. You are all very welcome! You all are cheap dates. . .LOL! The bill was so cheap that I ended up tipping the poor waiter almost as much as the bill was and wrote a note that said "Thank you for accomodating us!" Figured that way he won't run when he sees us again!

Hi ladies! I had the sleeve done 12/22/10 and live in San Bernardino. I would love to be part of the group. Can anyone tell me how to do that? I'm not good with forums.

Thank you!

Sophia,

Would you mind posting our last group photo in this thread? We can keep using this post for future meetings and have a record of our group! Just an idea.

Thanks and I'll see you there.

I was sleeved in Mexico, but I am a Kaiser patient - can I be included? I would like to share stories with other sleevers. It would be a bit of a drive for me from San Diego, but I can probably make it on a Saturday.

Thanks!

      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.
