Today I Am Thankful For....



Recommended Posts

Thought it might be fun to start a new thread where each day we could post one thing we are thankful for. Some days this may seem cheesy but all in all we all have so much to be thanful for and what if someone who is having a bad day stumbles upon something we said and it helps them through their day??

So, today I am thankful for......

A fellow December Sleever getting over her leak!!! YAY!!

Go you!! I don't think I felt like doing anything at all until day 5- and cooking certainly wasn't one of the things I did that day!

What a great idea! I am thankful for SO many things it is hard to choose just one......

But today I am offering thanks for my husband of 42 years! He did not want me to persue W.L.S., was not in favor of it at all. But since I made the decision has been so supportive! I know he loves me, cause he supports me even when he doesn't agree with me or what I do.

We have had some problems lately, but we are both working hard to overcome them, and I am thankful for that also.

I have been truly Blessed! I am Thankful!

      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
