What a beautiful inspiration you are. I'm scheduled for Feb 25. I hope one day I can post my pics and inspire someone the way you have inspired me. Do you find people treat you differently? And if so is it in a good way?

Thank you for the comment and yes I get a lot more comments since losing weight. I'm just grateful to be an inspiration to whomever wants encouragement. A lot of my friends have joined me and now they are losing weight too. :)

I was thinking of palms of Pasadena but decided on Cleveland clinic Florida since I was equal distance between the two places. My insurance would only cover those two places. I'm in ft myers

yeah same here my insurance will only cover the palms because it is a center of excellence.. it sucks because i have a really great hospital right down the rd from me and my doc but we both have to drive .. oh well at least they are covering it.. and i am greatfull for that

Yes and Dr Rehnke is a good man and a great Doc. I'm glad my insurance chose him.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
