Hi, Neighbors! I live in Royse City (just east of Rockwall). I have a consultation with Dr. James Davidson on Tuesday. Went to see him two years ago and backed out. One more try at diet and exercise... well, you know how that ended. Anyway, if I get cleared by all my docs, I won't back out this time. I have 60 lbs to lose, but it's more every year. At 64 years old, I have to fix this.

Howdy from Forney - come out to one of our support groups. The one that gamergirl and cubbies mentioned was a good time today!

Hey Don, thanks for the invite to the group meeting! I had a really great time and can't wait until next month! I didn't get to meet everyone but I plan to rectify that next meeting ;)

Glad you liked it! There is a different support group meeting on Tuesday 8/20 at Methodist Hospital (on the corner of Colorado and Beckley) at 6pm in the Weiss Auditorium. It's run by two bariatric nurses (and former WLS patients) and while not as social as the one today, there's usually good information.

I'm interested. I'm in North Dallas- near Carrollton. Where are you again? I'd love to start doing 5Ks. Eventually, I'd like to try the Rock and Roll half marathon, but I need to work up to it.

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

        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.

      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
