I had my surgery January 4th 2013 && I was so anxious to lose weight that what I was losing was never good enough. Ive been wirking my ass off (excuse my language). I finally lost 40 pounds and suddenly, something hit. I'm finally losing weight!:)

Very nice accomplishment. Today I realized a similiar thing. As slow as the weight seems to be coming off...I realized that I have not been able to lose 30+ pounds in a long, long time. I have to count these successes!

Congrats again.

It is great to feel lighter and be loosing more than 20 lbs then stop. I actually walked in a mall this week. It's been 4 years since I could walk in a mall after having both my knees replaced. If I feel like this now imagine what the next 37 lbs will do. I don't finish even a small bowl of food and don't eat Snacks between meals, I don't even think about food as much. Thank God for the Band.

Were you the one that was having trouble eating? If so, how is that going today?

How did you guys lose alot more weight? I had my surgery January 27,2011 and I was 250 pounds. Today I weigh in at 182 but I still have a little more to go but it's stuck. Can someone give me a few pointers in helping me reach my goal?

      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
