Hey everyone! I am feeling much better today! Just trying to get used to this funny gurgling that happens every time I drink something! I haven't had to much trouble keeping anything down or getting in my Water yet. I know I said I would post a video, but I can't seem to find the time! Trish got me a pedicure yesterday and today I am going to Rosarito and Ensenada to walk around the markets. :)

Thanks everyone for all the support!

You make a profile on youtube and subscribe to them. When you are on their page at the top left side hit the subscribe button. You will get updates on their new videos. They are very helpful and gives you a personal experience you wouldn't normally get I think.

Once I click on the picture, do I choose, follow posts by this user? Is that how you keep up with other people? I do not see an option for a friend request.

Everyone's page you go to should have three buttons across the top: Add as friend, Send me a Message, and Find Content. The find content button will show you everything they've commented on. These are really the only buttons I've used to follow anyone. There could be another I'm missing...

I do not have these buttons. Why? Do I need to be a paying member to have this feature?

Weird! NO, you don't have to pay! I'm not sure why you don't see them. Ask one of the moderators maybe?

It's ok- there's a list of them if you go up top to the Forum button and hover over it, and click on "Forums Home." Once you're there, scroll AAALLLL the way down to the bottom and you'll see some teeny tiny words and one of them will say "Moderating Team." click on that, and it should show all the people who know more about this website than I do. :lol:

      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. 🤞
