I think you got a lot of good advice, and maybe a little harsh criticism(although probably true). I think you're probably beating yourself up over this enough that you don't need more of that....BUT it is important to figure out why this happened so that it doesn't happen again. Plan your meals, have "safe" food or Snacks with you so that if you find yourself suddenly hungry you have something that is okay to eat, avoid all drive thru windows at all costs...not even for a drink, we all know where that leads. But more than anything, let this go. You are a success and you can do this, you've got all of us on your side.

Hi everyone... I appreciate the support. I am back on track. I am unsure what made me push the issue, but what's done is done.

Thanks again. I have learned a lot from this site. Good luck to everyone.

I'm totally with Alex. Long after your outside stitches looked healed, you are still healing INSIDE.

Are you really ready for this life-changing tool? "Testing" for what? How much you can eat? You don't "want to go HOG WILD until after you've had a fill????????" This tells me you weren't really ready...:wub:

I agree with u and Alex. You could have gotten Apple dippers and just ate the apples, u could have gotten 3pks. they are only $1.00 You should have the shakes in the can ready to go. They are pre-made. I am with the tough love. If I make a mistake and I post it I want you all to rip my azz into shreads.... because that is the only way I will figure it out.. hey others are saying the same thing.. so i gotta do what i gotta do. You know when u pulled up and went thru the drive thru u prob. said I shouldn't even be here. Follow your first mind because the 2nd one is always the ohhhh it's ok.. and IT'S NOT... You waited all of this time to get banded, went thru the pain. Baby keep it movin... The hell with McDonalds, and other fast food joints because they are all there to keep us overweight, lazy and broke..... U slipped now get up dust yourself off and get back on track....

I used to tell my children that being hungry is NOT an emergency. It's true, it's not. You are worth taking the time to do it right. Plan ahead. Keep on truckin'.

      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.
