thank you L.Lee .........

CONGRATS FROGGY,

I am really happy for you. I am 4 weeks out today (well yesterday). Yes, my surgery was an experience and it is being quite the journey currently. One thing I will say is that I made many modifications at least 6 months ahead but nothing prepares you for this change until your stomach changes. I mean this in the most positive way. Yes I have had some struggles in just 4 weeks but I still made the best decision.

I have a gift for you in an attachment below. Glad you liked my "new frozen yogurt find" Froggy, I have never believed in luck, and frankly I can't stand the word. Instead..............................

God's blessings upon you Froggy,

Lisa

WOW!! So many thank you's went out. That is so kind and considerate. People initiate kind gestures because they want to not 'cause they have to. When you can't show any other form of gratitude a "thank you" is always the best etiquette. I never received a thank you for my well wishes and I even sent a hook up for free Bariatric Vitamins. I received a "like" instead. Oh well onto the next person who will be more appreciative........SMH a.k.a shake my head

Congrats! I just got my approval. My surgery is the 4th. I could have done feb 18th but I would have had to start my liquid diet the same day and I wasn't ready.

      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.
