Have any July 1-4 people come back to the site to check in? I'd love to hear how everyone is doing! I really need the motivation for my July 10th date. So nervous!

Hi, there's a private fb group already, but anyone can actually look for it and see the actual members! I just clicked on it and was able to see the names and pics and the ppl that have joined. I'm a "secret sleeved" so I dnt necessarily feel comfortable with joining if, since other ppl can't see the post, but they can see my name and pic of the look under the member section

I too am like you and I totally understand.

I am going to tell people around me, but I don't want all of the Facebook acquaintances in my business! So I'm not joining a FB group either. I hope people still will share how it's going here too.

A few July sleevers must have had surgery by now?. How are you doing?

I just had my endoscopy today. Propofol is not bad. Just feeling a bit tired is all. Good day to start my preop diet, anyway, having to fast for the first part of the day. And 4th of July was my last "old normal" eating day. In forever? :)

Here's a funny for all my hungry friends out there. I had to laugh. I am on an iPad and I was typing fast and apple autocorrected "preop" to "Oreo" diet. Ha!!

      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. 🤞
