Excited about getting sleeve next week but I have been fighting more mental battles than physical ones with family and others telling me the reason I’m having the surgery is because I have “little self discipline “. Very hurtful. I’m wishing now I hadn’t told some people.

Sept 9th! Woohoo! Doing low calorie diet. Saw my surgeon on Friday and she asked me to try to take off 5 more pounds.

I am scheduled for September 20. Waiting for last pre op appointment. One week full liquid liver shrinking diet. Good luck to all.

I have surgery sept 11th and looking for ppl who are close to around there. Are you guys doing a preop diet? My doc says 1000 calories or less.

I never understood why some people feel like they need to tear down someone who's trying to improve their life.
Ignore them & DO YOU! Do what YOU need to do for YOU! Stay here with us. We'll NEVER bring you down. There's lots of support for you. BE STRONG!! You've got this!

I agree with Nancy. Just do you. This is a personal choice. People will judge, however, that's on them, not you.

I feel you! I wish I hadn't told a lot of people. Still, this isn't about them or their opinions. It's about you and what you think it right for you. They don't know what you've been through or what your day to day struggles are. Even if they love you and mean well, they still don't know. So don't worry about what anyone else thinks. You are the one living your life right now and you're the only one who knows what it's like and what it needs.
Good luck! ❤️

I hear you! I am getting more crap from hubby and daughter than anyone else. This is important to me, and to my health... so screw them! lol
