Smiling more Now

I'm only 6 days in and I had that thought when I saw the Olive Garden commercial which is my favorite. Your right Protein shakes takes that away. I suppose we both need to hang in there.

I'm very particular who is within my circle. I only deal with positive people and positive energy. Since my surgery I get the love, support and motivation I need. Thank you Lord!

Lol. Madmanpbsgc. Good information. Funny thing, I just realized that I still suffer from anxiety. How I forgot that, who knows. With taking only 1 pill a day instead of 3. So on top off trying to stop taking pain meds. Trying to make sure l take my Vitamins and High Blood Pressure medicine then forgetting anxiety medicine. No wonder I'm feeling emotional.

One of my friends urged me to do the surgery. The others are seeing the results and are happy. I don't think I'll be changing friends anytime soon..

You look wonderful!

Yesssss!!!!! it is a beautiful thing I mean I have been a overweight man all of my life and I have never had any problem performing at all never had a problem getting it either always had a few on the team at all times. but dammit if I knew then what I know now I would of had the surgery a decade ago. I mean I'm on porn star status there is nothing I cant and wont do. energy level is on 10 and yes it is true when you lose weight it does look bigger what I find its not really bigger it less stomach to get in the way so your able to go deeper. I knew it was the case when getting it in with someone I got it in with a few times stated I was going to deep. sorry if this is to much for y'all grow folks. its just amazing how you transform so quick. 62 day post and 60lb down.

Hello everyone, Warning beware of jealous people in your life. So my now ex but also my daughters father has as I feel always tried to sabotage me. I gained close to 100 pounds in the last 6 years since I've been with him had a baby got super comfortable and let myself go. Well since my surgery and before he was never with my lifestyle change he would bring fast food and candy into the house, he didn't work out with me on a regular basis (and mind u he is athletic and a boxer) there was no genuine encouragement nor support. He was and is a serial cheater. He told a girl he cheated on me with about me getting the surgery before i even had it and just recently told another woman i believed to be a friend but he was sleeping with her too that I had the surgery and now I think i'm better than ppl and they laughed about how I'm still big and my body gone be a mess (I seen the messages) the disrespect is at an all time high. Bottom line is I am better than what they obviously thought of me. This change has been the best thing that has ever happened to me, I'm happy about life again, I see the changes in me mentally, spiritually, and physically. I'm looking forward to the future and learning not to settle or accept anything I'm discovering my worth and now I'm glad I can close that chapter in my life and looking forward to my journey and finding someone new that sees the Goddess in me

I have UHC and I was approved for 3 months. I had to see a dietician, weight checks, lab work, chest x ray and EDG. My surgery was Jan 17th, 4 days in.

After seeing my sister have the sleeve. I researched and came to the conclusion this surgery is for me. Unlike waiting 6 months, I only had to wait 3 months. Dealing with Anxiety I was very nervous operation date January 17, 2017. The first day I was relieved that I groggy but awake because of the anesthesia. Second day walking, pain meds was something I looked forward to. I was tired and couldn't get any fluids down. Third day, ER visit chest pain, arm pain, back pain, gas pain and throat hurt. All test came back negative. No blood clots. Dehydrated had to have 3 bags of IV fluids. At this point I asked myself why did I do this? After talking to my surgeon and getting more advice from my nurse who had the sleeve done a year ago by the same Dr was very enlightening. Fourth day I'm more positive. Getting my Vitamins in and trying to get in 64 oz of Water. I'm sipping but I'm sure I'll get close to my Water mark pretty quickly. Still have back pain but feeling better. I can say I'm now excited about this journey in my life.
