Before surgery I was a candy JUNKIE. I would frequently not eat all day then eat an ENTIRE bag (like most by for Halloween) in one sitting. Gross, right?! So I saw a post on here from someone who said they ate one lindt truffle every night & I thought to myself "what a great idea!" So my husband bought some & I couldn't wait to have one. My plan was to have one a couple hours after my dinner. So, I ate a pretty standard snack of strawberries & when we were getting in bed my husband asked if I'd enjoyed my treat. And HOLY S@*#BALLS!! I'd FORGOTTEN to eat it!!! Jazz shocked! So I decided to enjoy it the next night & I FORGOT AGAIN!!!!! This would have been unheard of 6 weeks ago...I would have looked forward to eating the whole bag all day. Unbelievable! Yaaaaaay!!

I hope I'm like that too because I LLLOOOOVVVVEEE sweets! I'm hoping that the surgury will change my tastes because I'm a picky eater and I crave pastas and chocolate.< /p>

Kayte, I hope I join you on that nsv. I am also a chocoholic. I would love to not think of sweets.

Very cool! I, however, have not lost my love of chocolate. However, I have lost the desire to eat it until gone. One, maybe two small pieces are now just fine (where before, it would be many many pieces).

Good going!

I too am a sweet junkie... hubby and I had blizzards every other night before surgery! My stepdaughter had her 10th birthday and wanted an ice cream cake... omg! it was soooo good (the tiny sliver I ate) but boy did I pay for it! I got cold sweats and my tummy started doing flips.... so no ice cream for me anymore cuz that was miserable!

I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!! :)

      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.

      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.
