Recommended Posts

This is my first time posting. Im married from NJ but moving to FL. No kids. Im 30...a Virgo..like to travel...long walks on beach...oh wait wrong website..hahaha.

Anyhoo. Ive been blessed with the opportunity to have my surgery with Dr.G. Alveraz about a week before Christmas. I look forward to it. Ive tried it all to lose weight ..you understand me on this point. I want to be healthier. I dont have children but I will in a few years and i want to be as healthy as possible. I believe that i am mentally prepared for the challenges that will come my way. I am prepared to fight this dragon. ;-)

What else?... hmmmm...i look forward to having more options as far aa clothing goes but im also as excited to be more physical. Hit me up anytime.

I look forward to your friendship...

:-)

Thanks for replying so quickly. I appreciate it! ;-). Yeah i would love to set up a group for confident women/ men who are persistent and consistent with healthy living..positive encouragement...etc. Even though Im overweight right now I feel good about myself. Im confident, i know i can turn it out...lol. so this weightloss is for my health and future pregnancies. If we can find some cool Pretty Babies who would be willing to join. That would be. Awesome! Using this site is a bit of a challenge cause im using my phone. Im thinkinh pinterest meets VSG...what do u think?

      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. 🤞
