I everyone. I've decided on the sleeve. I am very excited. And very scared. I have my psych appt next week then EGD then schedule surgery. Does anyone have a good word of advice for my fears. I am of course afraid to take this step and fail. Will I be able to control my cravings. Will I be strong enough. I don't want to be a model I just want to feel comfortable. Thanks in advance for anyone who reads this. :-)

You will do great! I was afraid I would be the one to fail with the sleeve & yet I am still suprised everyday that I am 7 & 1/2 mths po & down a total of 93 lbs! I started my journey at 321 lbs & I am currently at 228 lbs! This surgery was not only a life saver but it has also been more then I had expected as far as how much I have lost so far! I really wish you the best on your journey & I wish you the best success!!! Congratulations on your choice to get the sleeve! I also have up a post with a flipagram video of my 7 mths of success & I just recently added pictures to my profile if you would like to check them out!

      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.
