I was sleeved by Dr. Garcia on May 15, 2012. Since surgery I've lost 132 pounds. I have not lost in about 4 months and its all due to me not exercising and not eating the right foods. I still have 30-40 more that I want to lose.

At this point in my journey, I really have to work to lose the weight. Not like after surgery at all. The weight was coming off at a very fast pace.

I am able to eat more and do get hungry now, not like it was after surgery.

I have lost 5 pounds over the past week and a half...but I've cut to 1000 calories and have been working out like crazy.

I refuse to settle for good enough and not great!

Do you think if you had continued to eat the way you had would you have maintained your weight or kept gaining?

Have you looked into how many carbs your consuming?? When I'm in a stall, I cut my carbs down to 20 a day MAX and do that for a week or so, like a reboot!!

I am getting sleeved on Sept 24th with Dr. Garcia at Florence Hospital. I started my 10-day pre-op diet yesterday. I am very excited. Is anyone tracking their measurements in addition to their weight?

      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.
