Took a progression picture today...



Recommended Posts

After much deliberating, I finally got the courage to have my husband take a picture today. I was motivated by another poster who posted a face picture. I wanted to see if I could see a difference in my body....I think I can! ;)

I am on day 39 after surgery.

Thanks! I was scared to compare pictures because I feel great and didn't want to be looking too soon. I think I look less "bloated", lol.

I know what mean about courage.

I didn't like my pic taken when I wasn't fat!

You can totally see a difference and you look great.

Lovely children, too!

The psychologist that is part of the lapband team told me to take a picture once a month. I recently took a 2nd pic and see a difference. I started a scrapbook to keep a record of my weight reduction. She also said to keep one "fat" outfit to help see how far you've come.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
