I would wear a really puffy grey and black coat during the winter to work, the hood was lined in grey and black fur also and I would always have it tied tight around my face because my hair was always wet. Add on the fact that I was always terribly tired I would have huge dark bags under my eyes, compiled with being pale to the point of looking like the undersides of a dead fish, and big and furry in my coat my friend at work would call me her panda bear. And she is my penguin because she was short and bigger like me. Lol but I am the only one who calls her that... Me on the other hand now EVERYONE calls me panda bear. And gets me panda stuff. Even got a panda bear footy pajamas from my mother in law. Though it kiiiinda made me start wearing make up like a girl when I had no use for it before that, just so my dark circles wouldn't be noticed as much. (That and a sleep study to see why I am always tired)

      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.
