And yes, those are adult footie pajamas... Didn't buy them because I'm not that crazy, but I just had to try them on!

Kudos to you! How long have you been sleeved? Also what would you say was the hardest part of being sleeved/the recovery process?

Five months and a few days out.

Hardest part... Would be having gallbladder issues and having to get my gallbladder removed. That just happened a week ago. But I have had a pretty easy time with this thus far... I have gone through my fair share of stalls and periods when food doesn't agree... But all worth it!

I suspect I wont have any gall bladder issues as I had mine removed in 2005, would you be willing to elaborate on your stalls and food disagreements? Tentatively I will be having my surgery in late March early April 2013

Stalls normally happen around the time of my period... (I also was able to and wanted to eat some more around that time)

Also... I got the infamous three week stall.

As far as overcoming the stall.. I really didn't do anything. I just continued doing what I was doing.

I was doing pretty well with exercise for a whole but have been slacking recently.

As far as foods that disagree with me... Let me just say that I have never thrown up... But it gives me diarrhea

I don't do well with any kind of egg (fried or omlete). Anything too high in sugar. Anything too high in fat. At the beginning anything acidic or with garlic powder upset my stomach.

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

    • 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
