Congrats on the surgery date! It's hard when you don't know anyone in person who has had surgery, that's why I'm so thankful for this site, everyone is so nice and support each other :) feel free to add me as a friend.

Welcome to VST and congrats on your surgery date! This board has a lot of positive people so you have come to the right place. There is a saying " if you cant change your friends, CHANGE your friends". A lot of us have had to change our friends.

Unfortunately clothing is not the only thing that no longer fits after weight loss. Love your friends, try to keep them, but don't let them steal your dignity or the joy of your victories. If they abandon you, don't abandon yourself.

There are multitudes here that get what you are going through.

I know where Porterville is. The company I work for has a plant in Lindsay. I'm up there a few times a month. If you'd like a friend... Maybe we can meet sometime. ;)

      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. 🤞
