i know what you mean about the husband and kids we went out shopping last sunday but i came home with nothing and he can home with pants shirts coat and kids also got something but i think he could see the disappointment on my face which has finally made him realise slighlty how serious i am about this, i have been fighting with my weight since i was about 14 so i think 12 years of yoyo dieting is enough now i have just come off the lipotrim diet which in 6 weeks i lost 33lb i felt great but i came off it for whatever reason and have managed to put on 15lb in 7 weeks so my bmi now is 40 so i just cant wait now to be me agian i dont want to be stick thin just a size 14 would be great i remember being so happy when i was that size and i was that size when i met my patner :) oh the good old days

      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.

      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.
