putting on my shoes and socks without gasping for breath. i like to wear sneakers, and lacing them up for me is a b!tch. i'm tired of wearing slip on shoes around the house, i feel like they slow me down and wearing sneakers makes me zoom! :)

I'm excited for high heel shoes, pretty bras/panties, being able to cross my legs when I sit down, and for my shadow to be skinny. LOL I was sleeved Oct. 21, and I've lost 28 pounds so I'm on my way!! I actually can already cross my legs again but it's not comfortable for long.

Not having to get my cute clothes from Torrid (that place REALLY makes you "pay" for being fat)

Being able to eat one cookie or one scoop of ice cream and STOPPING after that

there's more, but that's what I can think of now

I was sleeved Nov 4th, and all is well! Pain is almost gone now on the 9th. I am looking forward to work outs with my family, shopping for clothes (has NOT been fun for the past 15-20 years!!!), and getting ME back! Tired of looks of pity and disgust from strangers. Ready for the hard work ahead.... And the future me....!!!! Doing it so I can be healthy, be an inspiration to my family (hubby and son also overweight), and play with my Grandkids someday!

      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. 🤞
