Sorry to hear about your mom.

Don't worry about your check up I'm sure you'll do fine. Stress can really do a number on our bands, I know when I'm stressed out my band is really tight. Anyway good luck on your appt. and I'll put your family in my prayers.

Going swimsuit shopping when I get off work UGH!!!!:redface: It supposed to be 90 on Sun so I will have my happy butt on the boat (can't wait) But nothing from last year fits so I'm off to the mall. I ordered one off line but it's on back order, Which bites because I can't seem to find a one peice that fits with big enough cups. I got a nice cover up now I just need something to cover up. I'm sure I'll be a little aggravated with the saggy inner thigh skin thing going on But I'm trying to remind myself it's better then not fitting into one. Wish me luck.

Butterflies, I am down 2 more lbs. Yay! Dr Davis gave me some homework......recite positive affirmation before I go to sleep and when I wake up. Then paste a picture of me I hate next to my favorite food. That is on top of the page.....on bottome paste a picture I want to look like along with a picture of a healthy meal. I have to look at it before going to sleep and when I wake up. It is somehow supposed to get down in my mind. I am sure this must be in the Beck Book , but I didn't get that far. I go back to see him in two weeks. I am still doing the nutrition classes on Wednesday.

I hope all of you have a great weekend!

Kimaly, good luck on the swimsuit! Have fun!

Oh, and thanks for all the prayers. I put my mother in skilled nursing care yesterday for rehab. She is so much better.

      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.
