O man that sounds good. Lol... I'm so past ready for something to eat that will not make me feel like I need to talk to the toliet. Turkey and chicken are the only meat so far that don't cause any issues but they have to be alone veggies have to be seperate. I feel like I can eat more then I should be though.. sometimes 2 or 3 bites is enough and I'm full other times it's about 6 bites and I'm full. I'm 2 months out and down 48 pounds. I'm trying to figure out what to do for my first 50 pound loss as a reward for all the hard work.

@@brokenangel84 in regards to you feeling like you are eating too much, just listen to your body and if there are no repercussions to eating 6 bites then you are ok :) and for your 50 pound celebration you should treat yourself to an activity that isn't food. I think one thing about this surgery is that it changes you physically but not mentally, that is something you have to do yourself. I know before surgery I would always Celebrate with sweets or my favorite foods but when I lost my first 50lbs I went to high rise which is like an indoor gymnast playground with trampolines and it was very very fun and rewarding.

Hi everyone! I'm pre op and I need some help!!!! I'm on Medicaid and cannot for the life of me find a psychiatrist who can do the psych eval and takes Medicaid. It's so frustrating because I have worked so hard and this is my last step paperwork wise. I'm just so close to this surgery and I've hit this road block. Anyone else here on Medicaid that could help me?? I have called so many places. Thank you in advance.

      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. 🤞
