I hired a personal trainer and met her this morning. She had great ideas and was excited to work with me as I would be her first vertical sleeve client. She went home and researched what would be best for me due to the fact of the small amount of calories I intake vs cardio eating them all up... we get all set up to start full force this week and I get a text tonight from her saying the gym closed it doors!!! I feel bad for all the employees as they didn't see this coming and mad for me because I finally decided to incorporate a r:eal exercise program in my life and it gets yanked out from under me!!!! Grrrrr.... frustrated

Hi you have her number so why not agree to her still doing the training with you out of the gym. That way you still have someone you are happy with and she still has some money coming in while finding a job

Hahaha..... I just read this??? I had come home from a 16 hour shift, took an ambien ( sleeping pill) and went to sleep.

I get home tonight and see this as one of my posts!! Have no memory of writing this last night. Gotta love ambien! I also have ordered many many items on groupon while in an ambien deep sleep. Sorry for anyone who tried to read that, I can't even understand 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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
