I'm from California. Have PCOS and Hypothyridism. I have two children and have been overweight since I was 8. I have always been active and was an athlete but I was always one of the biggest kids in schools. I do like to eat and not always the best foods and have tried most diets out there. I am hoping this works and I am going to give my all.

. I have PCOS and Auto Immune Thyroid disease (diagnosed a year ago after an unexplained 50lb in one year weight gain). Good luck with everything!

I swear it's so frustrating. I have spent the past 6 months jumping through all these hoops and I finally got everything done. Now waiting for a surgery date is excruciating. The office uses a 3rd party to schedule everything and I worry I will fall through the cracks or get pushed back. They say the squeaky wheel gets the grease but I don't want to be a nuisance. Any suggestions??

Home today from the hospital. My surgery was March 7 and went great! I'm not all that sore, but I've had some bad gas pains. It's getting better, though. I'm drinking Water, Powerade Zero, and broths. I have no hunger, which is amazing!

      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. 🤞
