My BFF and an ex-boyfriend both got sleeved about a year and a half ago. She's lost 20 ish pounds and probably had 80 to go....he initially lost around 50 but it's creeping back, he's got at least 125-160 to lose....so the only 2 sleeved people I know haven't done well...she's a soda addict, he never exercises...there are reasons they haven't done well,but yeah, no sleeve for me!!!!

HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 225

I wanted the Rny but I am not and was not a sweets fan so dumping is no big thing for me. I workout and eat right But need the RNY for metabolic reset.

Joy don't every be embarrassed! I know I went hog wild before my surgery. We obviously have an unhealthy relationship with food or we would not be in this position.

Proud of you!! You will be on the losing bench soon. Xoxo. Serena

Once I got on the liver shrink I pulled myself together and lost 10 lbs but had McDonald's the night before my surgery. I love, love, love food. But all the bad stuff. I now learning how to eat healthy because if I don't my pouch will let me know about it. Haha.

      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.
