Had my sleeve on the 13th of March and down 25lbs. Last 2 weeks have just been up and down a lb. Or 2. It is very normal, your body has to adjust to all the changes and then it will take off again. I work as a CNA with bariatric patients and it is definitely different being on the other side. Keep up the good work and good luck on all your journeys.

Click on the person you want to message. That person's profile will pop up and you will see a box saying send a message. Also, up in your right hand top of the screen, there is your profile, your notifications and a little envelope.That is where you click to get and send your private messages.

Yes how do you send a pm on here?

A pm is a private message which is the same as a message. See posting above.

I love this gadget, n it really works. I love it because it makes food real small that way i can eat without fearing i am eating to fast. I made a chilli with it today. All the veggies that needed to be chopped were done in 2 min. Oh n it works wonders on fruit. Loooove it.

      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.
