I can't do this anymore. I barely kept last nights dinner down. I didn't keep this mornings Breakfast down. I am trying so hard but there is no way I am keeping all the Protein in I need. Fluids?? Well I'm trying. The only suggestion I get it to drink my fluids and get my protein.... HOW?!? I think I'm going to ask for a reversal next week at my dr appointment. I did the surgery so I could enjoy my life with my kids and now I'm so sick I can't even sit and watch.

Kelly....i would go in and see your doctor. Something is not right and you may have a stricture. Hang in there sweetie, it has to get better for you. Prayers your way!

Does anyone else have like a constant hiccup??

Its not like regular hiccups. Its a rather big one and its random.. Like I get a couple every hour or so.. SO annoying!

I do I do!!! Was going to post the same question! I wonder what causes it.

Call your doctor or go to the emergency room.

I was freaking myself out by weighing constantly. I let that damnable scale rule my life for so long I force myself to stay away...it is natural for me to fluctuate day by day and I was just getting crazy about it.

Can someone explain the term "onederland" to me? I thought it was when you lost over 100 pds. You know...Onederland. But I've seen people use the expression when they just lose past a point. Such as me at 340 when I finally hit 299, saying I'd hit onederland. You know?

So which is right?

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
