sill21 started following ONEderland!, Excess Skin has me unmotivated, Starting BMI 40 and and 7 others
-
I’m a year and a three months out of gastric sleeve surgery. I have excess skin on my stomach, arms, and thighs. My doctor told me if I get to my goal I can get it removed but I’ve been so unmotivated because of the excess skin. I feel like I put all this work into losing and now I still look terrible. I know this journey is for our health but I can’t even focus on that. I’ve been eating way too much because I can’t find the motivation to refocus when I know I still look bad on the outside. Anyone else feel like this? What did you do?

I had my surgery last December with exact stats as you except I am 22. No loose skin and I lost 65 lbs. I’m not at goal yet due to other circumstances but I lost a majority of my weight fast and still didn’t have loose skin.

I will be 9 months post op from the sleeve on September 16th and I've officially lost 60 lbs. I started at 239.7 and am now at 179.7. It's a struggle every day but slowly but surely I will get to my goal. I'm hoping for a goal of 145lbs but for now my mini-goal is 174 (doctor's goal).

Anyone with PCOS have any reverse symptoms/ improved symptoms after VSG?
sill21 replied to vsg2266's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Insulin resistance levels have been high since I was 14. Now 3 months Post op and 22 years old, they are in the normal range and I lost 43 lbs -
I was 3 months post op on the 16th and I just started noticing that it's been really hard to stay around 800-900 calories which was very easy to do before. This past week I've been around 1,000-1,100 calories. I work out 30 minutes 3 times a week so it's not so much where it should be making me hungry. Has anyone experienced this increase in hunger? I've been around 60g of protein a day.

Stall for 2 weeks!
sill21 replied to jameeks_cheeks_vsg's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I just had a two week stall myself. Got on the scale today and it finally moved. I've been trying different things to make it more and yesterday I had a full shake (I haven't been able to drink a full shake because I've been totally disgusted with them). Try more Protein.
