I was 330 before surgery and lost 80 pounds in 4 months. Who knows how much I would have lost, but I got pregnant. It took me 2 years to lose 165 pounds and gain a baby!

I was 421 the day of surgery, I am currently 293 pounds.

I've lost 128 pounds in 7 months.

So yes, it's very possible.

You are a SUPER STAR Mis73! You are doing such a great job and take the time to explain and encourage us newbies. Your success just blows my mind! Ya Hoo!

You need to remember everyone is different. I am not trying to be a downer. I just think people should realize they may be a slow loser. I certainly am. I was 332 at first consult. Due to other complications surgery was delayed and 7 months later I was at 282 day of surgery I am two years out and have lost 70 pounds. Some would call that a failure. Do I wish I lost quicker? Sure. Six months of doing up to 2.5 hours of cardio 7 days a week and I only lost 20 pounds. Also before the consult I hd lost about 50 pounds so by the time I had surgery I had already lost 100.

Also the more you lose the less calories it takes to run your body and you will have to either/or eat less and exercise more to continue to loose weight.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
