I'm one step away from completing my requirements for my insurance. It's seems like it be in August or early September when I will get the sleeve. I'm extremely nervous and back and forth on if this is the right decision or should I just keep struggling with losing/ gaining weight roller coaster. My fear of course is complications and the whole idea of having surgery because I've never had any surgery done before. I hope I'm not the only one with these fears.

Arlington TX here and I'm on day 2 of the liquid diet. I'm not hungry, but it is just that habit of wanting to put food in my mouth. That constant snacking I would do while at my desk. I've been going to the gym and walking trying to get my mind off food. I can see these two weeks are not going to be easy.
