Need to vent and this is not rny related but my best friend and I broke up today. We've known each other for over 20 years. Our kids are best friends and on the same football team. her family is like my own. We go to the pool and church together. I just can't imagine my life without her and know that we are going to run into each other all the time. This is not something that will change, it's permanent.

I am so sorry! I know what it is like to lose a friend on those terms and it is very hard. Dont lose sight of your goal and stay away from the snacks! I know that is hard coming from an emotional eater myself!! It is not worth eating the Snacks, it will only set you back and hurt yourself more. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

If you lose a friend of over 20 years over nothing she wasn't a good friend to begin with.

I completely understand what you're saying. My bestfriend "or so I thought" of almost 25 years aren't friends anymore. She basically used my family and myself and then pushed us out of her life..Her Religion and her politics got the better of her... It hurt at first and I tried to go back and be friends with her, but it was never the same. And all of the emotions were still there. I know how bad it hurts, but it's probably better that way..Unfortunetly friends do come and go. Even after 20 plus years. Hope you feel better soon...

      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. 🤞
