oh funny....I stare at my collarbones all the time because I haven't seen them in so long. and yes...the 'girls' will disappear on you. Mine have deflated like popped balloons. PS, I also used Dr. Ren and I am very pleased with her as my surgeon and with her follow up as well..

How long postop are you? Isn't she a breath of fresh air? It's like she walks in a room and silently commands attention and respect. I guess I better tart researching a plastic surgeon.... I LOVE my girls and so does hubby ;)

I was banded on January 14th and including the preop diet, I'm down 75 lbs. with 45 to go. I'm sure Dr. Ren can recommend a good plastic surgeon...they probably get patients asking all the time for a referral.

The first time I saw my collar bones I didn't know what they were. I actually yelled out to my husband that there was something wrong coz I had a weird lump just under my neck!

And not everyone loses their boobs. I did, but I have friends on here who didn't (lucky girls!), so maybe you won't!

Awwww, lellow.... That's funny & sad at the same time. I hope I'm one of those girls... I don't mind a Tummy Tuck, and even a Brazillian Lift... But I don't wanna touch boobies. Lets see!

Loves: collar bones, hip bones, ribs, back bones, general muscle definition.

Not so much: Going from a 42C to a 34B was not exciting in the least. I also was a little sad that I have a pouchy stomach due to excess skin and little bat wings. BUT I would rather have those problems than being my former fat self ;)

Yippee! Loving the reappearance of the neck, too. As for the boobs, my grandmother and mother have a funny phrase that sort of sums it up, "hangsie-downsie."

      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
