Hi y'all and Merry Christmas from South Texas! It was a ridiculous 81 degree weather here today. That shouldn't be allowed!

Other than that, I have yet to be sleeved and hope it to be early this next year. Currently I am dealing with bursitis in my hip and it is painful. Now, I know anyone, no matter age, size, can get it, but I'd like to know if any of you who have been sleeved with bursitis have felt the pain alleviate or go away??? I'm wondering if my extra weight is a factor.

I've been having hip pain for several years. Im still not entirely sure it's my hips but i can't think of anything else it could be. What does it feel like for you? For me its very stiff and painful. The front of my thighs at the top near My groin hurts so much. It makes me not walk and not want to. I don't know if it's bursitis. I have a bad back and sciatica so it could be anything. Id love some insight tho.

P.S. i have been sleeved since 10/5/16 lost 38 lbs so far. I have good and bad days. I've lost over 50lbs overall (pre and post op). I haven't noticed a big change in pain just yet. I suffer from chronic back pain so I'm on the look out for pain reduction as my weight goes down

Mine went away.

Sleeved 8/31/16

First noted I was pain free, when my husband and I attended Desert Trip back in early October. Easily did the walking with no pain :-). It occasionally flares up when I overdo it, but nothing like it was.

That's a dream to me right now. I don't think I've been talking to the right doctors. I need some guidance. I was thinking of waiting until i drop some more weight. Maybe evaluate myself every 20 or so pounds? I feel like if it doesn't improve in another 20lbs I'll talk to my gp about it and see what she says. But is there a specific type of doctor i should consider seeing just in case?

      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
