Janet you are so right about the will power and closet eaters. I admit here that I was a closet eater. I would buy things or make them and while the kids were at school and hubby was at work or during the night even, I would eat them and then when they would go to get some and it was gone or almost gone I would say 'I ate one or 2 but dropped some on the floor so I had to throw it away.' Isn't that awful!!!!!!!!!! I actually just told my daughter this the other night while we were talking. I would go to Taco John's drive through because I would order a value meal and wanted an extra super burrito and didn't want them to see me eat that much so I would go park in an empty park and eat. It was awful. I have always have problems with food though. When I was a teen I would not eat for 3-4 days in a row for fear of gaining any weight. I was very thin throughout high school and was afraid of eating. It was after I had my kids that I gained. Then about 6-7 years ago I lost 74 lbs and was very thin and felt great. Then I kept thinking like you said oh 1 cookie isn't going to make me gain 74 lbs and gradually everything started becoming more quantities and bigger protions and even when I would step on the scale I would think 'I lost it before I will start dieting again tomorrow.' THe problem was tomorrow never came for me because when it did I was ready for my next meal or snack. Now it is 2007 and I had gained all of the 74 lbs back and another 53 lbs to go with it. Not anymore. I am very true to myself thanks to my band and to all of you. I have come along ways. I would have never shared this information with anyone before. Here I am comfortable and can tell all. Thank you all for being here. I would be lost without you guys and the band.;)

Ruby - This is how a fat girl hides her tracks on an unbelievablly delicious, OMG, I can't stop, King Cake.

King Cakes come in a circle like a large donut. Everytime

I would eat a piece, I would shove the circle together to make it smaller. A large King Cake becomes a small King Cake.

Jackie - Like I have said a million times before only a fat person can understand another fat person - We don't judge those dirty little secerts cuz we all have them. We are all the same in so many way - I'm just not afaird to put it out there cuz i know that the majority here can relate to my story or issues about food..

Some have health issues for their weight problems - but most of us are fat cuz we ate too much and didn't exercise.

I love all of you here - I love my band - and love the new found energy that i have..

Well, gotta get back to work -

xoxo

Janet

      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. 🤞
