I drank a cup of smooth move tea last week & my insides hurt pretty bad all night! Kept me from sleeping comfortably. I prefer non stimulant to stimulant. Hurts too much!

Hope you feel better soon!

Oh my poor dear! I am in shock you have been endearing all these complications! I pray to god you will heal properly & get to go home with your family tomorrow. It sounds like you'd still be in icu. I haven't had the surgery but I've been considering it. Hearing about your situation makes me so scared. I have a baby under 1 & he needs me home. Keep positive! Things have to only go up from here right!? I hope so! God Bless you sweetheart. Hang in there!

@Iwanttofitin> That's good news then huh! Lol I feel if I lived alone without temptation then I would be fine. Then I think well it's not realistic to leave a relationship because that person wants pizza when they know you are out of points. Even when they said they would support you. It's up to me to say no, I've had enough food or I will eat something within my points. I can't rely on my bf to have better willpower then me in order to support me. I'll still have to find the strength to say no when he wants those foods after the surgery so It's all me I guess. Just wish I had better control so bad. Then I could eat decently without surgery. From what i'm hearing is that you can still enjoy foods you loved, you just eat less automatically. I have a naturally thin friend & I seriously remember her take a bite of a snickers I bought her & she was done. Maybe i'll know what that feels like after the surgery lol If I get approved.

Thanks for the responses! I am currently considering the sleeve. A friend had it done about a year ago & has lost more weight then she ever did dieting on her own. I am waiting for an appointment with a surgeon to discuss things first.

Ok thank you!

Hi there! I am still waiting for a referral nurse to call me to make an appointment to see a surgeon who takes my insurance. I already have my stomach like hanging over my underwear as it is so I'm hoping it will go away after weightloss. I know when I lose weight on my own it just gets smaller. Lol

@@HAgar vsg, how much weight have you lost in how much time?

I am asking for similar stats as mine to get an idea about how much loose skin ill have. My arms are bad already & my lower stomach. I think it's from losing & regining over the years. That & 1 pregnancy with c section.

Sorry I can't type question in this section. I am typing blindly right now it won't see what I'm typing

Ok well I'm hoping I can see the doctor soon while my bmi is still 40+ because my weight fluctuates alot.

I will not miss my bikini cut under wear rolling down! Ugh hate that sooo much! I will not miss feeling hung over the next morning from overeating or binging on sweets the night before! I will not miss feeling frustrated when nothing looks right on my body & I have to go be social while feeling sick of being in my own skin. I will not miss not wanting to be close to my bf because I feel gross. I will not miss feeling hot & sweaty because I skipped a shower & had a hot cup of coffee! Lol most of all I will not miss feeling ugly when out with my bf & there are thin beautiful woman around that I know my bf would be attracted to. Amen!

Why can't i see what I'm typing in a post except for the topic?

Rgggdfi have been feeling guilty for considering surgery because I've lost weight a few times with weight watchers but always regained. I can eat a good amount on that plan & whatever I want. So why can't I stick to it if it's so great? I have a few reasons or excuses so I'm feeling bad about my lack of control & even if I'm losing weight if someone wants pizza & ice cream even if i have no points legt ill eat it. Then ill feel like I screwed up so bad I taje the rest of the week off to continue to eat unhealthy thn do it all over again the next week. Is this surgery going to help me have more control?
