Thank you all so much !!!!! You are all such sweet ladies!!! :D

You know, sometimes I really have to remember that the scale is not the be all end all in our journey. I went through it for a minute and was tripping over the scale because it was being so stubborn for weeks... but yes - I have compared this months pics with last months and there is a good difference. I just have to trust in the system and my sleeve - and most of all MYSELF!!!

I did need to make some adjustments and I do believe I have found the problems and I'm working on them as we speak. Today was my weigh in day with my Wii. It said I'm 230 exactly now. It usually registers a pound or two heavier than my Taylor scale - but because I do my weigh-in in the evening. I'm always up a pound or two by the night. I do not consider this an official weigh in - I just like to use it as a second reference and a pre-cursor to my Wednesday weigh-in. Also to know if I need to work harder for the next few days. It said I'm down 4 Lbs since my last Sunday weigh-in... so hooooorayyyy!!!

Rock on sisters!!!!

Thank you so much genepha. I cannot stress how much more my life is improved with getting my revision surgery. I truly am living the life I though I was going to have with my Lap Band. I'm so happy!!!

Let me know how you progress in your journey! I'm always interested to know how other revisioners are doing. :)

      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. 🤞
