Oh my god you guys I have a date. I've been texting with this guy all weekend and we really hit it off and have a lot on common. We agreed to meet on Tuesday. I'm so nervous. I'm going to go vomit.

Be yourself.

Sure you do.

Take a deep breath, hold your head up high------ and ---------be yourself.

What will happen will happen if it is meant to happen.

You got this! Enjoy yourself.

Cool! Just breath ???? is normal to be nervous, where is the Date? This usually dictates whether there gunna be alot of full on face to face intimacy/talking.

Maybe not go to a buffet/all you can eat restaurant;-) he he don't mind me I'm only 2 weeks post op and hungry:-)

In my past dating I always take pressure off myself by thinking if it right one, it will flow, if not, it's okay, all experience.

Can be scary to step out of comfort zones, but it is when we can gain most:-)

Hope you have a nice time.

The most important thing to remember is that you are not in control. Meaning even if it's a great date, you may not hear from him again. And if that's the case, you can't obsess over it. Just try to remember that you enjoyed yourself and on to the next one. ;)

Oh I think that's a good one, coffee, nice and casual...

How do you feel about talking about the sleeve? I think it's a very personal thing. I probably wouldn't until down track. But that's just me.

Whatever you feel comfortable with.

I don't think it's first date information but if i feel like there could be potential for a long term thing i would mention it after a few dates

I've thought about that. Even if I never hear from him after tomorrow, chatting with him has been fun and a nice little ego boost.

Yess - and now you get to ride that ego boost onto more dates with more guys! Run with it.

First date with someone? No need to mention your sleeve; it's none of his business. Whatever you order to eat, just talk and eat slowly. He won't notice.

Be careful. Don't give up the 'goodies' too soon. Have fun. Congrats on the new date. Hope it is successful and turns into more, should you desire.

Congratulations.. Have fun and stay relaxed.

Remember be yourself and don't let pressure to do things get to you. You have no one to impress but yourself.

HAVE FUN AND BREATHE!!!

      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. 🤞
