Quit The Darn Whining



Recommended Posts

So I have been reading and realizing over the last while I just need to freekin get over the fear. I mean seriously just do this or don't do this but stop the darn whining. It is all a choice. We choose to become healthy by using medical technology or we don't. There are risks. There will be some, a lot, or maybe no pain. So (I look squarely at me when I say) get the hell over it and be willing to risk a little or perhaps a lot in order to live life.

Okay, crawling back under my rock now.

Dec 24 surgery.....Merry Christmas to me with a great potential gift for ME and my family.

Your right, quit whining and do it. It's not that painful... and there are risks walking across the street. Quit living your life in fear and do something you can be proud of!

THREE CHEERS FOR YOU!!!! Finally, somebody gets it!!!!

It's tiresome to see people people worrying about every single last possible problem. It's good to educate oneself in case problems arise, but obsessing over maybes is such a waste of time and energy. This is a long process, so it's really helpful to take it one step at a time, one day at a time.

Wishing you all the best. May Santa redistribute your excess pounds to needy skinnies around the world! LOL

Matter can neither be created nor destroyed. I am hoping some of my fat ends up in Hollywood, California :)

      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. 🤞
