    Default Gastric Sleeve Scheduled for June18

    Hello, I am scheduled for VSG on June 18 with Dr. Almanza. I am nervous, scared and excited all at the same time. I have dieted and been the fat one all through my life. I am so tired of the battle. After my son was born, I lost 30 pounds with diet and running, which I came to love and really enjoy. I felt amazing and looked amazing. I proceeded to injure my foot while running, got out of the habit and now seven years later, I am 60 pounds heavier. So I gained the 30 +30 back. I'm so sick of it. I finally just told my husband, I'm doing this.

    I'm planning on going to MX alone which makes me a little sad and nervous but I don't want to tell anyone I'm doing it for fear that they will try to convince me not to. No one knows what I feel everyday and they just can't relate.

    Looking forward to looking at my reflection in the mirror again.

    Kadie

    Welcome Kadie. I know how you feel. I only told my immediate family and 4 close friends. It is normal to be nervous. But I am so very glad I had my sleeve. My life is exponentially better as a thin person.

    Congratulations on your upcoming VSG. Mine is a few months out, but like you, I am traveling to Mexico as well. I can't wait to be getting back to a healthier lifestyle. Good luck and keep us posted on your new you!
