I'm in Macon.... I've just completed my last big pre-op hurdle which was having a heart cath for cardiac clearance, Now just two more dietitian visits left and attend a group meeting. Hope to have my surgery in November. I'm using Danny Vaughn at Bariatric and Metabolic Institute Navicent Health

I used Doctor Stetler. I think he was awesome. No complications and my incisions are healing great.

I'm on the Georgia-Tennessee line had the sleeve done on 12/7/12 lost 160 lbs was at goal weight then gained 80 lbs back . I'm 51 yrs old and menopause hit me and I wanted to eat everything in the world I could get my hands on. I Need Help I been back on track for 2 weeks now but the weight still doesn't want to come off , I eat 3-4 small meals a day and I drink 100 oz of Water. I'm not exercising at this time cause I fell and hurt my hip. Is there anyone out there that's 3-4 yrs out of surgery that can give me some pointers? Please

I haven't been here in so long I don't know where to start, but I'm a GA sleever so I guess here is as good as anywhere!

Just checking out Bariatric Pal after a long time away. I was sleeved in Dec 2012 in MX with Dr. Alvarez. Reached my goal in 18 months. Now sitting at around 35lbs under that goal.

Maintaining my loss, feeling good except I really need to be more diligent on my Vitamins and Iron. Feeling very small... and still have lots of good restriction. WLS was the very best thing I could ever do for myself. So happy I did it.

      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. 🤞
