Live longer, see my 4 kids grow older and graduate collage and have kids of there own.

To be able to walk down the street unnoticed, for wearing a nice bathing suit, to enjoy my life and not fester in my own self pity for being big!

To fit in to a chair and not feel like I have crammed every being of me in it!

And to do something amazing to Celebrate a new life and to be lucky to have it!

And no more sleep apnea.

As a nurse it would be easier to stand for long periods of time, bend and lift if I were lighter. Hoping I'm taken more serious at work too.

I can't wait to get on rides at amusement parks, get on a plane again, go on bus trips to NYC and DC etc. When we go to ball games trying to squeeze through the turnstyles is a challenge too. I would love to run 5ks an half marathons too!

I just want to have a long healthy and active life.

      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.
