Great job! I can eat noticeably more now also and my food issues rear their ugly heads every now and again too. Not keeping junk in the house makes a huge difference, otherwise I become powerless and cheez-its start calling my name from the pantry! Been doing the couch to 5K app on my phone. I really like it.

Hello to all my feb sleevers!!! I was sleeved 2-5-13. Hw:314, SW:307 CW:244. I haven't been losing. But I am incorporating workouts now. Mainly plenty of dance 2-3 hours straight with minimum rest. So I guess my body is doing whatever. Starting 30 day squat challenge on the 1st of August. I so want to get out of this long stall, enough ranting just checking in! Way to go everyone because we are all truly on a JOURNEY!!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!

I think we all have a bit of apprehension, anxiety, but also happiness that this could be life changing. I think we are all doing the right thing first and foremost for our health, secondly for the ease of walking, sitting, thirdly it will he nice to have clothes that fit or are more stylish. I am retiring in June and just want to travel witho+ut the aches and pains of arthritis. Not that it will go away but it should be better with less wait. Being almost 62 I'm hoping my face doesn't sag too much. Lol. Well I'm a bit scared but happy and happy for all of you. Best of Luck. BTW Jan 31 is my surgery. ????

      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. 🤞
