Idahospud. That is a great goal. And it is so fool when you can do it the 1st time I was able to. It was like wow. This is awesome. I can't wait for Feb 7th 2015. That is the day I will be marrying my wonderful fiancee. A little about us. She had her sleeve July 30th 2013. She has lost about 145 lbs. I had my surgery DEC 26th 2013. We met on this web site early Jan 2014. After meeting in person we started dating. I proposed to her Saturday sept 21st. I had my 9 month post op check up Friday sept26th. Both prrop and post op. I have lost a total of 245 lbs. 180 of it coming post op. I can't wait for tomorrow and everyday after. What an amazing new life we are embarking on!! Woop woop!! Everyone keep the faith. The days of doom and gloom are gone. Stay positive and you will achieve what ever you want!! Life is a journey not a destination. And like the late Jim Valvano said. Don't give up. Don't ever give up!!

I'm looking forward to curing my sleep apnea. Wait! My sleep apnea *is* cured. I just found out this week. Now I need to look forward to clothes that will fit me for more than a month or two!

This surgery was such a wonderful choice and you too have so many wonderful benefits to look forward to. Some benefits you know about, some will just dawn on you.

Best of luck!

Nice! I too have had my sleep apnea go away! I found out I had it during pre-testing.. 4 months later it's gone. Very thankful for that..

1.) Water parks

2.) scuba diving

3.) running

3.) summer outside

4.) bending over to pick something up without "strategically planning" how I'm going to get back up

5. Breathing when I tie my shoe

6.) throwing away my slip on sandals

7.) wiping my ass without going through contortions ( TMI?). :)

I can't wait to fit in the seats for all the roller coasters when I go to Dollywood with my entire family this coming Spring. We went this past April and I could only fit on two of them and I felt terrible.

I love these types of posts.

I can't wait to: chase and keep up with my little 5 year old daughter. Scuba dive again - 1 more logged dive and I hit 100 dives! Trying a rock climbing wall. Running again. Getting checked out! Getting healthy and not fearing the doctors scale or blood pressure cuff. Looking in the mirror and being pleased with what I see. Having to buy a smaller size. Not hogging up an entire doorway entry.....

      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.
