YOU!!! You are one of the main reasons I'm here where I'm at today!! You encouraged me when I thought I had nothing left!! When I still couldn't walk because of much pain I was in even after surgery because of my sciatica. You pushed me through and you brightened every day after surgery!!! I love you so much Jen!! With my whole heart and I couldn't have done this without you!!! I am proud of US!!! We did it!!!

I had back surgery in December. Herniated disc pushing on sciatic nerve between L4 L5 S1. I am 495 lbs and a truck driving instructor at the time. That pain is nothing I wish on anyone. They never offered weight loss surgery as the option. I was already working on approval for it and they still said I needed back surgery. They said I had "the largest herniated did they have ever seen" go big or go home right lol. Back surgery did me well but I am getting sleeved in about a month. I'm glad that surgery worked for you for the back.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
