Looking for a buddy



Recommended Posts

@hajoura-sweet ok that's very encouraging. What's funny is different things I've read spooked me so much I said I was emailing my surgeon Monday morning requesting to post pone another month. I'm telling you sometimes my mind becomes two shades in the wind off thinking of wayyyyy too much.

I am so happy to hear you've done so well. I had VSG 4/14/14 and I remember saying to myself what on earth have you done. That feeling passed within the first week.

Please keep in touch and share everything that comes to mind hahahahaha.

Oh no definitely don't post pone! Go for it you deserve it
Don't think on it too much.. i would suggest even keeping your mind busy with other things other than food and weight loss.
People have different reviews on the VSG surgery.. i personally think this one will do it for you!

think of a hobby that you like and try keeping your self busy with that don't think too much on it.. it will drive you crazy.. after a few months or even weeks you won't recognise you're self in the mirror..
i suggest that you maybe buy a sexy dress or a outfit that you hope to fit into someday in a size 10 or 8 and just hang it in your wardrobe.. make sure you see it everyday in a few months this is your goal.. stay focused.. other people who discourage you are 90% of the time too intimidated by the new hot you that they know you will become don't bat an eyelid !

      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.
