I know Diva!!! I'm looking for someone to teach my classes for at least 4 weeks in January.. I thought about working 3 days a week after my 2-week Holiday break.. Last night my doctor was like, NOPE!! You need time for yourself and you're gonna take it.. I can't even work from home!!! LOL... But, I'm okay w/ that...

I actually cooked this week...no eating out, low carb, high Protein meals... Having a good week so far!!!

Glad you're feeling better!!

I'm just dealing w/ the emotional part of this weight loss journey... I didn't think I had very grandiose expectatins about weight FLYING off.. but I did.. and I'm struggling w/ disappointment about not losing a the amount of weight I was a first... Then, I can't work out yet...BUT... I'm embracing my process and enjoying the journey moment by moment!!...

Thanks for your encouragement and responses...

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
