:(Please pray for me... This all starts in 2006 I had lap band lost 150lbs but was so sick the entire 2 yrs.. It was removed in 2008 when I gave in to my body shutting down.. It had slipped... now I have gained 165lbs back and I am trying to get vsg..yes I understand it was my fault to haved gained all the weight back but at the time I had alot of stress in my life and gained instantly 30lb in fluids the 2 days I was in the hospital when the band was removed.. I was starving to dealth... now I was getting enough money back on taxes to get the vsg and have an appointment for 4/18 with Ramos Kelly... well that said.... I got a letter that my taxes are delayed for further checking... I don't owe anything but my understanding there is problems with my income.... PLEASE PRAY THIS GETS CLEARED AND I GET MY MONEY AND GET MY SURGERY....

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS

Sending all my best wishes on getting your taxes in time for your surgery! I had to delay mine by 6 months and it felt like torcher to wait that time.

I had my surgery on the 18th with Dr. Kelly would have been great to have you in our group. All the same it will happen for you and I am wishing you all the best. I had to use my taxes along with a loan from my 401k so I know how it is. I hope it happens soon waiting is the worst

Hugs and praying it will all work out. It isn't your fault the weight is back. The band failed you like it did me and so many others. I really do pray you are able to get your sleeve.

Well folks I still need prayers... I have yet to get my return and the IRS can not give me a reason... This is BS... I call every other day and nothing after the initial 30 days they send a message to a different dept. and say to give it another 30 days... That was on 3/25 so I am in waiting... I have talked to Sandy and She is waiting until 4/8 to hear back from me...

I just really need prayers.. This has gotten me so down that I am not wanting to get out of the bed..

I am a mother of 3 (son is 15 and twin girls 10) also 1 of my daughters has Down Syndrome and needs extra care.. I have got to get healthy so I can take care of her.. My mother in law lives with us and takes care of the things I can't.. helping her bath and stuff... But that is my job..

PLEASE KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS..

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
