RJ, just come across this thread - I can't believe what's happened to you! But, as ever, you have kept your humour and sense of perspective while you must be in agony. Hope the pain diminishes soon and that the universe takes a look at itself and says enough for you for now....

I would send you a big hug but I'd better not squeeze you too hard :-)

Hope you're feeling better today!

Nope..worse..Went to the Chiropractor last night and he made some adjustments..Could not find a comfortable spot to sleep for pain...Got up this morning and now my right side hurts almost as bad as the left does....

Then I went for an X ray to see how my lungs are due to pneumonia...I said to the girl that doesn't look good..she said you mean the Fluid in your lung..I said yup..She said oh well things could be worse...I said your telling me!!!!!!!

Probably another round of horse size antibiotics doing havoc on my system..Oh never mind.....I am just discouraged...

I got some new nail polish though...with pink sparkles in it..Think I will give it a go later today....lol

Oh Honey! I'm so sorry you're in so much pain. I hope all the love and concern that has been expressed for here helps ease it a little.

No..But it helps me know that there are people out there who understand and take the time to let you know they care....

Oh no, RJ!! I'm so sorry to read this!! My goodness, you surely are a lesson in keeping positive through just about ANYthing!!! Hun, I would hope and pray I could be as gracious and positive thinking as you are if I had to endure the same battles/struggles that you do. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers, my friend.

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

        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.

      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
