Thanks everyone...I feel amazing. I feel pretty again. I know my health is the most important thing, but my MENTAL health was in the toilet and now it's not. I have plication surgery Jan 10th with Dr. Abril in Mexicali...My start weight was 272 and a size 22 jean. Today I am 239 and a size 16 jean. I have a ways to go, but not too far bacause my husband likes the "meat". So I am shooting for 160 or a size 10-12. Lot's of hanging belly skin even with lot's of exercise...so another trip to Mexicali is coming for my 1 year anniversary. Love my peeps down there, Love Omar my patient coordinator and Roxanne and the staff at Hospital Santa Catalina!! Thanks again everyone!!

Wow! You look fantastic. Can't wait until I'm a size 16 again.

I totally agree with you about being a size 10-12, the perfect size IMO! :)

It was tricky...I went to me profile and then to my gallery and tried creating a photo album, I don't know if that really worked, then I saw at the bottom of this post page, there is a choose file option and I started messing around with that, and quite by accident I managed to attach a picture. I repeated my mistake several times and wella! Pictures!! I don't know if I can do it again...good luck!!

How did you do the pics by the way? I can't seem to figure it out.

      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.
