I am still pre op. I am an over all healthy 35yo male. My bmi is high, but I only need to drop about 65 (only lol, I mean 60 is a lot!) I am scared as hell. My time line is about July for the sleeve surgery I am scared and keep going back and forth if I need it or not. I have been heavy for years and have bad sleep apnea. My blood work is so so Everything else is normal. Idk what to do, I think I need the surgery but have never had any surgery as an adult! I hear horror stories on here and other pages. Will I regret it!? All that I know This topic has been beat to death on here Idk I'm worried about pain, if I'll regret it later all that. Sorry to flood this with another I'm scared thread. Thanks for letting me vent. And I'd love advice. This is a great page!! Godspeed Happy Monday!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey all. I'm a 36yo male who was an avid weight lifter. I still lift however just not as hard core. I have way to much body fat and have a big ole belly.l but...... I am very strong and am worried I'll lose all my muscle. I need the surgery due to heavy weight (face is very plump) and given me sleep apnea issues. My blood work is not great either. I need to have the sleeve done for my health. I can't seem to do it on my own My question is more for the men, did you keep any of your muscle mass? I know I'm not gonna be able keep all the good muscle and lose all the fat but I just don't want to be a weak little guy either. Idk. Just makes me a bit scared. I am getting sleeved in July at fairview southdale in Edina mn Sorry if this has been asked, I look for a bit and not not see one! Godspeed Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
