37/NJ here. I had Gastric Sleeve July 2 and it's going well, although I've kind of hit a stall. I'll figure it out though.

Good luck on your surgery! I'm here if you ever wanna chat!

40 in NJ - getting the sleeve 10/28. Lost quite a bit on my own. Excited to see what the future holds. These last few weeks seem to be the longest (and the shortest, when I get scared).

Good Luck, keep everyone posted! :)

Yay! Another one from Jersey! :-) You'll do well with the sleeve. It takes some getting used to (and occasional stalls), but it's great!

Yep, I expect the stalls. I've been losing since beginning of July and I went on a two week stall and lost more. And this is just me doing my own thing. I've heard of your doc, my friend went to them. I work in Florham Park but I don't live there, I live in Bergen Co.

I actually went to him the one day a month that he's at JFK Hospital in Edison, as I'm from Woodbridge lol.

      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.
