Family and friends that i have told dont understand why im doing it so im getting alot of slack for it and i hated not having anyone to talk to about it but just like you i want to be happy and take pictures with my kids i have 2 boys i want to try and keep up all in all i believe im making the right decision for me and for my family good luck in your journey message me for any questions or just to talk

I'm a newbie too. 45 yrs old. Live in Indiana but getting sleeved in Ohio. Need as many buddies as I can get and encouragement. So how do you add friends or how does that work?

Advice.... You're doing this for you! Not anyone else! No looking back, move forward. I had my sleeve on April 27, more for reversal of diabetes, less for weight loss. I'm down 48 lbs and a new outlook on life. I also, had no support just negativity, it's about you, not them. Best wishes for success!

I'm in Atlanta and I know how it is to not have anyone to talk to about it don't get me wrong my family it totally supportive but they are not really interested when I want to vent or Ive read something interesting or exciting on here Ive started working out and trying to get in a habit of tracking what I eat they dont really understand why Im starting before I even have a date Ive even had to remind my husband that he is supposed to be supportive

Hi everyone im looking for a sleeve buddy to write to about experiences my surgery is july 16 cause no family or friend understand why im doing this...... just looking for positivity

Hi! my surgery is tomorrow as well! I have only told immediate family members, so my support group is limited. Where are you from? I'm from the Houston TX area.
