hi everybody im only here visting!! i have been researching weight loss surgery for maybe the last 4-5 years. i been to 2 workshops but was never able to complete the process as i kept getting pregnant each time im back into researching more ive decided i want to do the sleeve. I have not started the process as I am 5 months pregnant but I am trying to get my mind in the right mind set and get motiviation started to do this when the baby finally arrives. getting tubes tied im done popping out babies ; )

I watched on netflix a tv series called Ruby. SO GOOD. Really opened my eyes to my food addiction. I been in denial for so long. I am not as big as she was 700 lbs I am 250 lbs at 5 months pregnant (normally im 240) but If i dont do something soon it wont be long till I get there!

today i was dropping off my 2 older childern at a school basketball game when my mind was saying to go sneak to mc donalds grab a grilled chicken n super size fry and a side of of mayo (i dip my fries in !) i started getting into an arguement w myself on the way to mc donalds that i was not even hungry at all theres no reason to go there. an old lady was driving down the street in the dark with her head lights completly OFF it distracted me for a min and i passed mc donalds. i took it as a sign from God to GO HOME. And so i did and i am feeling accomplished. I just hope that old lady made it home safe too!!! ????

For those of you nearing ur surgery dates much respect for you I hope to be where you guys are at one day soon. - Melissa.

I HATE those arguments, I have them all the time with myself, just about every night rigth before bed... to eat or not to eat. I always lose those battles, but congrats on winning yours!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
