Can't believe my surgery is tomorrow...

Hello to everyone,

My surgery is scheduled for tomorrow. I am feeling so many emotions, I almost want to cry. After years of losing weight only for it to come back when I whenever I would eat carbs has been very heartbreaking for me, I felt like I will have to be on a diet all my life and I would never overcome this weight problem.

I revealed to my neighbor who has been skinny all his life that I am having the sleeve, he told me "why don't you try working out and eating healthy"

Only a person that has had weight issues can relate to how that comment is not at easy as it sounds. I did very well on all my past diets to lose the weight, but it would always somehow make it's way back. Whenever I would eat, I would actually get hungrier after I am done eating and just keep eating. I never feel full when I eat, I feel like this only happens to me.

I have great plans ahead to lose the weight and keep it off. Thank you to you everyone for your informative posts! xoxo
