Food funeral!! That’s a good one, lol!!! Divorcing all bad food and overeating!!

Thanks so much for the transparency and openness of everyone sharing their struggles! I have been researching (nurse brain here, lol) bariatric procedures for over 4yrs before finally being brave enough to seek out help. I’m almost 40 and have struggled with my weight my entire life. Have lost and gained back over 60lbs three times, but never in a truly healthy way. When all my scrubs were skin tight, and I was over the weekend gut limit for a bicycle, I realized I had enough - time wanted my entire life to change! I used to love bicycling, hiking, and strength training, but have gotten so out of breath all the time which made me depressed, and then I had to have a hysterectomy and everything really changed after that! so fast forward to now, I’ve lost about 10-15lbs since March/April and am scheduled for my sleeve provider in just three days!! good luck to everyone

Hello all and I’m so glad I stumbled upon this website while searching for protein supplements! I finally have my sleeve scheduled for October the 19th!! This Wednesday!! I so super excited and ready to begin this new chapter in my life! I’m sure many people here have encountered a lot of resistance and negativity from others regarding this choice, which makes having places like this helpful and encouraging. I appreciate seeing the positivity and sharing among everyone and am looking forward to having this forum to come back to during my new journey!!
