Congratulations on your success, brother!

I notice that you're still doing the "baggy black T-shirt." I betcha that if you wore something that was a bit more tailored to your new, slimmer physique, the change would even be more apparent, but I can definitely see it in your arms and face and the fact that you don't have anywhere near as much visible abdominal fat. In short, you're looking good!

I hope that my results are anywhere near as good as yours!

Yeah I still like the black shirts, but at least they have gone down from 4X and 5X to 2X.

I know you will do great too.

Good Luck on your journey.

Thanks to everyone for your comments.

Hey Carol, WOW 58 pounds that is great. Tell Rich it is his turn, LOL.

Man, it just seems like yesterday we were talking about going to Mexico and now here it is three months later. It was so nice to meet you guys while we were there.

If this weight loss keeps up I'll be calling you guys about that diving trip. Although I will need to take a refresher course before I come since it has been so long since I have done any diving. You and Rich will keep the sharks away, right? You know I have never done any ocean diving just freshwater, don't have to worry about fish eating you in our lakes, LOL.

Please do post some pictures and tell Rich we said hello.

Take care,

Hey Gar! So good to hear from you. Yes, the weight loss will keep up, how could it not?! We would LOVE to take you diving!!!! We can do the refresher too, not a problem! Sharks, hopefully we will see at least a nurse shark or two! Harmless, like big catfish! Dropped another 1.5 today putting me at 59.5 lost. Hoping to see 60 tomorrow!!!! How amazing is this whole nutty journey?!! I wish my skin would keep up, however, starting to see excess skin in strange places... eek! :svengo: Have finals this week and then hope to get some pics together. Take good care and stay in touch!!

      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.
