Okay...I have what...2000+ posts? You don't get that many by having a bunch of other hobbies.

But yeah, after a while you slow down a bit. You start seeing alot of the same posts. Plus as you lose weight, hopefully you start new exciting adventures in life that you were not able to participate in before.

Just a random thought -- yes, one of many! As I was putting lotion on after my shower this morning, I was thinking about how much money I will save on lotion after I get sleeved! You know, less area to cover!!! LOL

Yes indeed! I can't wait until I don't pump half the bottle of cocoa butter (not to mention being able to reach most all of my body without getting winded)!

Not everyone in the world can understand, relate, or basically cares about what you do to your stomach to lose weight. But a huge majority of people here GET IT.

I think this site saved me from completely boring the rest of my family and friends with talking about the sleeve. LOL!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say VSG isn't the reason so many marriages end up in divorce, it's VST that does it. Electronics, ruining marriages and friendships since the day they were created.

I did the same and was constantly reading about the experiences of others prior to my surgery. The good thing for me was my wife was doing the same. We would compare notes each evening on the various posts we read.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
