Incredible!! You have ROCKED your sleeve lady! :) All I can say is just keep on fighting. When we get down to the last few pounds we have to really put the afterburners on to earn them.

Hello to u both and I can say I am proud of u both. My one year anniversary is June 30 and I have not done half of what u two have done and I am so do disappointed and frustrated. I have had my stomach tested to see if it had stretch " no" it has not. I started at 257 and went dn as low as 217 now I'm at 235. Doc said I'm sm not getting enough Protein and I'm really struggling with that.

Can u both share with me how u got to onederland. Please help I need encouragement. I wish I would have found this sight a year ago it would have helped alot but I have it now and hope to make sleeve friends for life!

This site is amazing... I would come here just to read and stay focused on what I need to be doing. Protein is soooo important for you. what is ur usual day like with food? In the begining I would eat eggs and cheese for Breakfast or oatmeal. Even just turkey lunch meat. Ohhhh and there are meatballs with Tomato sauce.

Congrats on doing so well!!! And thanks for finally joining! I don't know what I would do without this site, it truly has helped me stay positive.

Try to be patient with those final pounds. Being in the "under 30 to goal" category I understand how frustrating it is now that we don't lose nearly as fast nor as consistently. It is frustrating!! But be happy with how far you've come and know that with time those final pounds will come off!

      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.
