churchgirl got a reaction from Pearldrop in June Sleevers Lets Get Excited!!!
June 6th too! Scared more about after ward & doing this right! I’m diabetic & have neuropathy in my feet so the way I look at this is I’d rather have 1/2 of my stomach removed & have a chance at really losing some weight that to wait, thinking I can diet without surgery on my own & end up having toes amputated!

churchgirl got a reaction from Alanny68 in Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies Check In Here!
I’m up to the plate this Tuesday, June 5 after starting in October 2017! Nine months! And I still look pregnant! LOL. Did great the first few months with losing weight then we had a cancer scare in the family & I totally blew it. But even though I didn’t lose the weight, surgery still scheduled. My biggest fear is not the surgery but being able to follow the rules afterward. I feel like., if I didn’t lose weight pre op, what really makes me think I can post op? And the only reason I think I can is that I absolutely hate being nauseous & vomiting! Is that a bad reason to think this might actually work for me? Sometimes I think I should be having an operation on my brain instead of my stomach because my obesity has so much more to do with my psyche than my stomach! Everyone says I won’t be hungry anymore but hunger was always the LEAST of the reasons I ate & over ate! Guess I’m more scared than I thought!

I was past my 61st birthday when my surgery was done. I kick myself for waiting. I've still got some more work to do but feeling better than I have in many years. Had health issues because of my weight but much less now and getting better. Good luck!
