  2. Hi Rose,Thank you so much for your response. So many people are against me with this, but I'm so miserable. I do have a few health problems and so this will help, but I have to be honest, I'm doing this for my own reasons of how I look mostly. That feeling of looking in a mirror and being ok!! Wow that must feel great. I'm so pleased for you and I'm so happy I'm actually doing it now. Have a great day and again thank you. Take care xxxx Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App

  4. I did the surgery because I wasn't able to physically do anything and I have a heart condition. I'm only 42 and have a huge life I want to enjoy. I was terrified of surgery and the unknown of after the surgery, I'm a nurse and know what I'm supposed to tell patients, not anything I can actually speak of. I haven't lost a ton of weight yet but I feel like I'm starting to live... Sent from bariatric pal app I'm scared of being put to sleep I've never Been under, its the only thing that's giving me second thoughts. Any advice? Sent from my LGLS675 using the BariatricPal App I'm not too scared of that as I've been put under with loads of ops, I'm not too sure of what I'm scared of. I'm sure you will be absolutely fine. I'm so glad we all have each other on here to help ♡♡♡ xxxx Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App

  8. Hi guys, Just wondering if there are any sleevers out there having or had surgery done weighing 200lbs and if so, did you lose much from it? I'm so so scared. I've read loads of good stories on here thank God, but the very few people I have told are really against my decision. My husband is half and half about it. He is paying for my surgery but he is ready to bail at any given moment due to outside influences. I've battled with my weight my whole entire life. Even at the age of 6 I weighed 8 stone. (112lbs) this is the smallest I've been in my whole adult life, but it's coming back and fast!! So I feel this is my last attempt at making myself happy. I know weight loss isn't a magic cure to make you happy, but I'm fortunate enough to have all I want and need, except for being able to look in the mirror without crying and not wearing the clothes I want to wear! Thanks to anyone that reads. Have a great day xxxx Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App
  9. Thank God I read this. I.m absolutely terrified. And although I only weigh 200lbs it's still impossible for me to lose it. I was 295lbs and lost 95 with weight watchers but it goes on and off and I'm sick of being the fat friend and not joining in with anything. Thanks for the inspiration xxx well done for all of your nsv xxx Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App
  10. Hey, I hear where you're coming from.i am due my sleeve in Feb, but I'm already worrying it won't work etc. You're really being too hard in yourself. You will do more damage than good if you keep up like this hun. You're doing amazingly well, but maybe just take done pressure off of yourself. I really hope you're OK xx Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App
  11. Hello, I'm due my sleeve Feb 2017. I didn't but my sister in law who had pcos found it impossible to get pregnant. Had a bypass and pregnant with no issues now. Good luck xxx Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App

  13. I'm having mine done on my own too. If my family found out, my mum would put a stop to it somehow and when she finds out.. I'm more scared of that than the surgery it's self. Here anytime. I don't have mind until February ♡♡♡ Sent from my SM-G935F using the BariatricPal App
