That's gonna change, trust me.😁 You'll find yourself taking more selfies over the next year or two than a 13 year old school girl on social media. My guy friends still troll my Instagram and bust my chops about it..

This is so true...NEVER thought I'd be a selfie person. Now I'm obnoxious and constantly ask people to take my picture. LOL We're proud and showing off! Flaunt it ladies and gents!!!!!

3 more months before surgery ? Thebsurgery makes it so much easier ! But U have to live the steps - the Water , the Protein , the walking , the exercise , the Vitamins . I attacked it like it was my job . Was methodical about journaling everything and I didn’t lose hair, I felt great and only have a had a few instances where I had to throw up . It’s a lifestyle change , sure, but it is SO worth it ! Good luck !

It is truly amazing . The albatross around my neck is gone! I do have to think and plan more - I bring little things of yogurt and cottage cheese and string cheese with me and buy some Protein Snacks, but the organization I now have to do is really worth it . I make sure I drink a lot of Water but after 7 months the lifestyle and patterns are engrained . You will do great ! Just commit urself that for the first 3 months u will be perfect , then the habits are there !

You will do it . Just take it day by day . Try to get your 8000 steps in now and try to drink ur Water as wel. I also took Biotin 6months before my surgery so my hair wouldn’t fall out and I took the chewy Multi Vitamins as well . U have 3 months before surgery - prepare ! I also started drinking my Protein Shakes in the am (I mix with Decaf hazelnut coffee ) it’s great in the am

      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.
