Down 26 Pounds In 3 1/2 Weeks



Recommended Posts

Still on mushies for another week but amazed at how much weight ive lost. I want to lose about 90 all together so im pretty happy. It hasnt been easy though. Emotionally harder than I expected. Some days im not sure i did the right thing. I really miss over eating. Crazy isnt it!

I remember talking with someone before having surgery and he said it's like losing your best friend and how you go through a mourning of sorts. I agree. Early on, I had days where I struggled with it, missing food. It gets easier.

Now I am struggling with thinking my last fill was a little too much and having trouble getting solids down. I have been struggling emotionally with it (I will see the surgeon this week) but I didn't want to jump the gun and let things settle for a few days.

Stay strong, we can do this and you deserve a healthier and happier you!!!! :)

Good luck to you.

It does get easier but every once in a while I find myself wishing I could eat a chicken wing dripping in bleu cheese dressing....like the gal sitting across from me at the restaurant I went to tonight. Then she got up to use the restroom and I got a reality check. Those 12 wings she ingested attached themselves right to her bottom. I just smiled to myself and my husband reminded me it wasn't the place for my lap band lecture. Lol ( I am kidding about that last part... I would never approach a stranger about dieting.....) I am not kidding about really wanting that wing.

      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.
