Sleeve 4 me!

You look GORGEOUS!!!! I am sorry I have been a bit away from the boards (some personal/work matters) so I did not see this sooner. But I want to congratulate you on your accomplishment and for being such a bright shining light on this board. Many have already commented on your kindness and warmth and I want to second that!!! It is obvious from your pictures that your beauty comes from within. Your weight loss has simply revealed more of you! You are a rock star and I'm so happy and honored to know your story!!!!

Sleeve4me, get OUT---I thought you were mid-20's!!! Seriously, girl, I am flabbergasted that you are in your 40's! I, too, showed your pic to my husband, who guessed 30 (but he was trying to make me feel better, I think, which means he thinks you look younger than that, LOL).

You do look amazing, and like everyone else here, I have appreciated your comments, your supportive and upbeat attitude, and all the positivity you bring to the board. Keep ROCKING!!

To GOD BE THE GLORY! He's the one who changed my life and has given me peace, love and joy beyond measure! He also gave me the opportunity to get sleevie :)...My hubby says that since getting sleevie I'm much more happier than before, so I know that has also made a difference. I just want to pay it forward and choose to inspire and encourage anyone I possibly can :)

Sleeve 4 me!

I'm eating everything right now. The only thing I don't eat is white bread (rolls, regular white bread, flour torts). Sleevie still has a pretty good restriction so it's really about the portions for me, I think...

You look fantastic! I haven't been sleeved yet but I hope I can make it to where you are. You are an inspiration to continue this journey and think positive. What was your food intake like and what type of exercises did you do?

Awww Thank you :)!!! I started with walking, and really love hiking. Finally joined a gym this past February and try to go 5 times a week and try and do at least 2 zumba classes a week as well. Portions have been the key for me. Sleevie totally helps me with that. Some days he lets me eat more than others but for the most part I eat portions like a normal thin person now, and eat every thing. I still try to eat Protein first when possible.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
