Will You Please be my Buddy?



Recommended Posts

Hi There,

I'm a born-again Believer who is 2 months pre-op looking for a buddy.

I'm hoping to find someone who has lost a lot of weight and things

have gone reasonably well !

I am 5-6 and weigh 300 pounds. My goal is 140. I struggle with depression

due to my weight and an auto-immune disease with degenerative joints --

which keeps me home-bound except for the many doc apps.

I would want to extend support to you in how-ever you would like. I am not

looking just to take!

I pray the Lord leads us to just the right match!!

Bless you,

WeeWers

I will be glad to be your buddy. I am older also, 66 . I have lost 66 lbs in 5 months and no complications so far. I also can not exercise due to pain. Any questions at all just ask. Be more than happy to lead you thru the beginning.

I will be your buddy! I just had my sleeve done feb 18 and aI am in need of a Christian buddy too! I am married, with two grown children and 2 grand boys. I don't know how folks can go through surgeries like this and not have the confidence of Jesus as their Savior! My saying for this process is "I know Jesus lives within me, but I'm giving Him a nicer, more snuggier place to live! God bless you!

      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. 🤞
