If you order a child's plate and still ask for a doggy bag for leftovers, you might be a gastric sleever.

If your arms flap in the wind like a sail due to loose skin, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you go days without seeing a single turd, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you have to bear down like giving birth to get a turd out, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you can't get through a day without someone making a compliment, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you are obsessed with the scale at your house, you might be a gastric sleever

If you go to the store and grab 3 sizes to try on because you have no idea what size you are, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you walk into a regular size department and feel like everyone is staring because you don't belong in there (but you do), you might be a gastric sleever.

If you involuntarily gag watching other people gorge on food, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you used to shop at Victoria's Secret for undies and bras, but find yourself at Wal Mart for cheapies for multiple size replacements, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you find yourself in the pictures of Wal Mart (the Internet pictures that float around), buying underwear in loose fitting Goodwill clothes, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you trip on your feet constantly because your shoes that are to big, you might be a gastric sleever.

If you can no longer tell time because your watch is so loose and sits halfway up your arm and backwards, you might be a gastric sleever.

That's it for now. I'll see if I can think of more. Fun thread!

So me! Yesterday my mom and I went shopping because she needed some help picking out some new clothes. She shops in the plus size department (she is a banding slowly making her way down) and I was in the regular department. I felt like the people were looking at me like "get back to the fat girl clothes"....even the sales associates looked a little differently at me. I did have one sales associate ask if she could get me started in a dressing room, I politely declined because I had to stick to tradition.....side-by-side dressing rooms with my mom so we could try on and then evaluate each other's outfits. Thankfully we both were able to make out on some amazing sales!!!

        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!

      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
