Yesterday we were coming back from Oromocto and hit an icy patch on the road...We did three donuts( not eating them ) but with the car until we sat safely at the edge of the road..All the cars behind us and the ones in front of us stopped and pulled over to the sides of the road as well....I could not watch so I put my hands over my eyes and hoped that my granddaughter would be okay....

We stayed there for 3 hours waiting for a salt truck to come a long and salt the road.....I felt so sick....My grand daughter thought it was fun and asked her gram pa to do it again.....not happening....We had lots of good Snacks in the car but no Water for me....

By the time I got home I was so worked up I went to bed and slept for most of the evening....I was scared but mostly scared of what if my girl gets hurt....Today I still feel the effects form it......

I was hoping 2014 might be better then 2013...I go for surgery on the 21st as well....so far not so good! :(

      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. 🤞

      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.
