Christian sleevers any the just had...



Recommended Posts

I wonder if we could ask Alex to had a Christian WLS Support Group (for any kind of wls) under general surgeries, special interest.

. Sounds like a good idea

I think the question is what type of spiritual support are you looking for?

Another question: are you going to keep it positive only? The reason why I ask, some people say, since I've had issues, if I say here is what happened to me or try and ask people to do their "surgeon" or "office" research, that's negative.

the thread is for support through the good bad and worse .. And to help eachother over come. Negative in everyone's eyes and case is different. We are here for support, prayer, conversation, venting whatever is needed at the time.

Hello Ladies how are we? Are we recovering ? What phase are we one? Any complications ? Buyers remorse ? Are we walking? Any testimonies ?

Oh my goodness I woke up this morning feeling so discouraged and tired that I took the morning off from work to just have some "me" time. I poured a cup of coffee and signed on to Bariatricpal and I found this thread! God is good! I really needed this today. Thank you for starting it. Looking forward to following and getting to know you guys :)

Hi all,

My sleeve surgery is this Saturday morning. Check in time is 9:30 am. Would you keep me, my surgeon and the medical staff in your prayers that morning? And we'll all do the same as your date comes up. God Bless.

. I've never heard that I actually spoke to my pastor not once did he mention that .. People judge what they don't understand we are taking care of bodies.. And it's our choice and we are getting our lives back.

I am surprised to hear this. It never crossed my mind that someone would think that A medically necessary procedure would be questioned by another Christian. Glad your here. Welcome to the sleeved side!

        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!

      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
