Hey everyone! I am new to the community but not to the struggles.

I know it looks dumb being a new member posting this but I am not sure what else there is for me to do.

I would appreciate it if anyone would just visit my Gofundme page and ponder the idea of helping me out.

Thank you all!

Good Luck.

I am not sure if posting links to go fund me is allowed here but we all know the struggles of being obese. I hope you find a way to get ahold of your health.

In the event that you need back up plans, try checking out insurances policies through the Marketplace (AHA -Obamacare) seeing which cover WLS , are available to you, research them very well and switching to it during open enrollment.

Also Medical Tourism.

Safe Journey

Good luck with your ordeal.
Looking into Intermittent Fasting (IF) It's free and works wonders, I'm sure it'll help you out in the long run.

Considered a Go Fund Me Page for myself, don't think it meets Alex' s criteria so quickly trashed the idea. Bariatric Pal and being a member,means more to,me. Besides my problems may cure themselves.

I took a loan from my retirement account and pay myself back with interest. There are also low cost options in Mexico for around $5k

      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.
