In time you'll realize this is one of the best things you could've done to better your health. Results will come. Just do what they tell you.
Maybe a family member or friend can help you out till your back on your feet. Maybe the Landlord can work with you or maybe get a personal loan. You should be able to go back to work within a couple of weeks. Good Luck to you.

I'm sorry you're having a rough time (at life)- I've been there too... It looks like you've lost a ton of weight and I'm sure your health is better. I would advise you just to stick with it and things will get better. Prayers up for you sister.

I understand that at this particular moment it feels like your entire world is falling apart, fortunately for you it is only a feeling. When things are going wrong the first thing that we want to do is to pinpoint a blame (cause and effect). As far as your rent is concern you can go to the dept. of public welfare or your local community action program and they will point you in the direction to get help with covering your rent. As far as your weight is concern stop comparing your outcome to others. We didn’t all gain at the same time and we are not going to lose at the same time. It takes up to 18 months to lose all of the weight and reach your target. Extra stress tends to make you stress eat and you will start regaining what you have already lost. Just do as your doctor advise you, and start looking for ways to get help to save your home. You got this all you need to do is to activate what you know and put it into action.

      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. 🤞
