Im so ready for this. I have wide feet and they hate shoes. It's like a kid spitting out veggies. Not much really agrees with my feet. So I'm hoping to lose some weight in them and go down a size or something or to atleast not be wide width anymore

I definitely think this is true, for me at least! Luckily, where I work, we can wear jeans and sandals, things like that as we typically don't have anyone in the office. Last week, we had to dress business casual because of someone coming in. I haven't had to wear dress shoes in about a year or so. I tried to put a pair of flats on, and when I walked, they flipped up and down off of my heels. So there was no way I could wear them. I never thought I had lost weight in my feet, but I guess I did. I'll take weight loss anywhere I can get it. :-)

I lost a size and a half!! From a 9 to a 7.5 and in some shoes a 7. This was the hardest thing for me. I LOVED my heels! As a big girl, I never had to hold back buying cute shoes, cute clothes, was a different battle. Now I have to start my heel collection all over again!! Oh well, I'll take a size 10 clothes over a 30/32 anyday!! Love my sleeve

      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. 🤞
