Happy Mother's Day to all the brave sleever moms!



Recommended Posts

This is the best thing I could have ever done for myself, my kids and my husband. My 8 yo daughter wrote me a poem that said she was proud of me for being a "dare devil"

for doing my surgery. Lol, so sweet. Happy Moms Day to all the other brave Sleever moms out there! And even if you are not a mom, you are still brave superstar Sleever in my book. Enjoy this beautiful day!

Yep, truly the best thing I have ever done for myself health-wise!

That is cute that she called you a "dare devil"...my girls were 8 and 10 when I was sleeved in 2010. Now they are almost 11 and 12 and the other day my youngest called me the "Protein monster" haha.(guess maybe I harp on the Protein a bit much...) I like "dare devil" better. :)

Happy Moms Day to brave Sleever moms

mamamareli

back at ya et al :)

little vent ok????

while i was growing up my mom always "commented" on my weight

my 4 siblings were either thin or average size, so what happened to me??? :angry:

she was never very tactful about my weight "situation" :angry:

mom lives in another state - she didn't see me through my weight loss process

she saw me after i reached goal - looked at me and smiled and told me i looked "good"

she made that comment about 2 more times that day - no more :angry:

since then, she has never mentioned the accomplishment of losing 105 lbs or that i look good or nice :(

whereas before - she always "mentioned" me being overweight!!!

i guess certain memories stay in your head, whether you are 9 or 59!!!! :angry:

my mom is now 83, and i do love her

happy moms day to you all, my mom, and me and my daughter too - who has made me the "proudgrammy" 3X's over!!!

by the way Janice - doggies do count for mothers' day ;)

      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. 🤞
