Thanks guys !!! That means a lot to me ???????? .... I feel free here to say what I'm doing, what I'm going through. Without being judge. I recently told my Best friend of 20 years. And she is not supportive at all. @notofthefaint @@perk4756

I don't think any of us plan to leave. ???? I haven't told most people. My husband is supportive. My mom is totally against it. The only other people I've told are my husband's cousins. He just got lap band, and she's going to be sleeved, so I know they're on board. I'm sorry your friend isn't supportive. Sometimes people just don't understand.

I thought if I told her, and she'd understand me because she's a very understanding person. I can go ahead and tell my family friends coworkers... but NO!

It's okay... What I have learned through all of this is that people don't really want to see you at your best.

Is it just me or does anyone's weight fluctuates?? my weight fluctuates between five and 6 pounds every day.

Hello everyone,

I don't post on spotlight, so I don't know most of you. But someone told me about this new board and I love the idea.

Anyway - my name is Erika and I live in Houston. I was banded by Dr. Spivak on 9/30/02 and I've lost about 96 lbs. I say about because I saw 198.5 a few weeks ago but rebounded to 204 and have been plateau'd ever since. But I still count 198.5 as my weight!

I have about 50 lbs more to lose and hope to get there in the next 6 months or so. But am trying to be calm about it.

I'm really looking forward to getting to know you all.

my weight can go up and down like a rollercoaster!

Just began my journey, but my insurance doesn't require a supervised diet so my surgeon said September is realistic. Next stop- Psych eval the 23rd, NUT apt the 28th then SUBMITTING TIME! I'm very excited to move on into this chapter of my life, considering i've been overweight since BIRTH. haha :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
