Got A Date

By E-girl

· 535 views

So I have a date. Very excited but I still can't believe it. It doesn't feel real. Even after I went to my first post approval appointment. And I have sooooo many appointments more to go to before my surgery. I think part of me believes that this isn't going to work. I know that doesn't make sense but I have been on soooooo many diet plans that have failed a part of me this will be the same. I feel like I don't want to get my hopes up to much just in case. I wish I wasn't so negative.

    It does make sense! I think most of us feel that way...I sure did. Im 8 days post op, and am down 12.2lbs! and guess what? Im still worried it wont work!! Lol, it sonds crazy, but its my truest emotion right now. Outside of the fustration I have with wanting to eat things around me, though I physically can not. Its a hard transititon...but it will work! Try to stay positive!!

    The sleeve works! Don't worry! It's amazing. I know it works because I also had the band, which was a joke. Your life is about to change!!! Yay!

    im 17 days post op and 20 pounds down. You will eventually hit a stall in your weight loss because your liver has to catch up with what is happening on the inside but one day youll be done 3 pounds and the stall will be over. I still feel like it wont work but that is foolish thinking because it obviously is. Do not give up hope!!!
