I'm logging/tracking on the Baritastic app, it has a spot for pictures, measurements. And a timer to tell you when it's safe to drink after you eat!

I like following others but I won't post anything of my journey as I haven't told a lot of people..

I haven't told many people either so I like posting because it's like I get a chance to talk about it. If that makes sense.

I was going to keep it in, but decided to share I was surprised on the support I received. My friends and family have seen me struggle for 20 years so they know I have tried it all. Not one negative remark tho.

This is the Youtube page I'll be documenting my journey on. My journey has already changed due to some unsettling information we found on the surgeon I was going to use in MX.

I will be staying stateside, hopefully here in Savannah or in FL, depending on Cost! I've found a surgeon in FL who does VSG for $7800, I've requested info.

I won't be updating my youtube much until I get my new date and start my pre-op diet.

      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.
