What I have learned from this topic:
1) Buy a gun and ammo
2) Better yet, learn how to shoot one
3) Study the neighbors striped raccoon-y looking cat carefully now, so as not to think its a raccoon (anyone ever eaten raccoon?)
4) Buy and store jerkey in massive quantities to barter with.
5) Tear up a sheet and with a big fat sharpie, write "Don't Shoot! Fellow Sleever!" (because we can band together and win the apocalypse)
6) Get an ID tag and have it engraved: "You just shot a member of the SLEEVER gang! Head for the hills!"

7) Have the back of the tag engraved: "Anything you stick down my throat must be less than ___ inches long" (anyone know the length of an esophagus?)
8) Consider moving next door to Miss Mac :)

Man, all this Jerky talk has been making my mouth Water. Then I get a call this morning from the game processor that my elk is ready. Yeehaw! I'll be picking it up this afternoon and start working on my homemade elk jerky! In the meantime, I'll be having rare tenderloin for dinner. Mmmmm

I eat beef Jerky every day. Some brands are better than others. High Protein, low carbs...just chew it up good. Can take it in the car too. Do any of you eat it after surgery? I'm 6 weeks post op and have no problems with it.

I'm 11.5 months out and my sleeve doesn't like jerky, I miss it so much and ate turkey jerky often prior to being sleeved ????

      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. 🤞
