Well guys I am exactly 1 month post op today and I weighed at the gym this afternoon. I am exactly 41 pounds down!!! I can not believe it. I am very tall and had alot to lose so I am just now starting to see the weight loss in my clothes and see it in certain areas of my body. I am so excited. I think I am starting to get a feel for how slow to eat and chewing. But then in a few weeks I go to solid foods so I am sure that will just stir it up again. Thank you to everyone for the last month and prior to that and all your support. :001_wub:

Congratulations!

Even when you trim down, expect your head to take a long time to catch up. I'm about 50 pounds down now, and my head STILL hasn't caught up, even though my clothes are just falling off me.

Whooo hooooo!!! You are doing so awesome! Did you take before pics? If so you should definitely take some comparison shots! The # on the scale is great but I actually recognized it in myself so much more when I saw the pics.

I'm so proud of you yay!

Thanks guys...

Dickson - nope no complications everything went really well. Just normal post op stuff

Christi - I plan on taking pics but I was afraid I wouldn't notice enough of a distance and get discouraged.

      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. 🤞
