Recommended Posts

Hi there! Im looking for people in the central to NE Ohio areas. I moved to Wooster ohio a couple years ago and am looking to meet up with people in the bariatric weight loss community. I had a gastric sleeve surgery back in 2012, had lost a little over 100# after surgery but have since regained much of that back. I am now looking into revision surgery to bypass at the Bariatric Care Center in Akron OH. Im pretty new to this site....so please be patient as Im still learning how this works. Feel free to friend me! ~Shell

I'm clear down in Mount Vernon, over a hundred miles SW but I'm sure you'll find takers. My town is 20, 000 but I swear I am the only RnY here. If somebody from Columbus wants to I'll share gas money! Any takers want a Cleveland trip?

      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. 🤞
