You are so gorgeous now you could do adult entertainment. Just saying you have unlimited potential now.

Dude are you serious? The more I read your comments the more I wonder if your just some POS troll trying to get a rise out of people here. Why would you think that is an appropriate thing to say to anyone?

Why is it inappropriate? I didnt say anything indecent. And I am no troll. I was complementing her on her accomplishment and said that she could find work in a legal profession.

@J San Thank you for speaking up on my behalf. A little uncomfortable to read that my progress pics would mean I could join the porn industry...just proud of my progress and have been going to the gym a lot more lately and just wanted to show my 1 year progress. Thanks for being a gentleman though!

I am truly sorry to have offended you, please accept my apology. It was meant as a compliment only and not as a rude comment.

In a civilized community a person suggesting a woman do something like that is rude. Are you a grown man or a child? If you can't see the issue with it there is no reason for me to try to explain anything. As far as I'm concerned there is no reason for you to be on this forum. Your issues are deeper than anyone here can help you with. Go seek therapy if you even care about trying to be a better human.

Thank you for sharing. Im 6 days post op and need some encouragement. Being several decades older, a higher weight and very lax skin, my results will not be as spectaculqr, but it has to be better, right?

@Kahkeetsee The beginning is THE roughest, once you are healed and able to eat and lose the weight, it will all have been worth it! I have been doing a lot of weight lifting and using Vitamin E oil and jojoba oil to help tighten. I still have some loose skin on my abdomen, legs and arms...pictures can be deceiving. I've been doing weight lifting though to combat it a little.

Just stick to it! Eat healthy and exercise, take lotsss of progress pics of yourself and the scale so you can look back and be proud of yourself.

You will change and grow as a person and become stronger mentally, physically and emotionally.

You will be surprised at yourself. This is for YOU. YOUR experience. TAKE IT ALL IN. DO NOT LET ANYONE TAKE IT FROM YOU OR MAKE YOU FEEL BADLY. YOU DESERVE TO FEEL GOOD ABOUT YOURSELF AND LOVE YOURSELF.

I remind myself of that everyday and it wasn't until a month ago that I feel like I've evolved into this strong bad ass.

I'm un-apologetically growing into the woman I have always wanted to be. I don't regret it for a second.

I said I was sorry. If you have spent time reading in these forums you have seen how people interact and say things that others do not like or get offended by. I said something wrong, but I have as much a right to be in this forum as anyone. I make a valuable contribution just like everyone else. That being said, I am not perfect and should not have said what I said.

      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.
