Operation Fine by Summertime begins!



Recommended Posts

Ten more days until my surgery in TJ! Woooooohoooo! I'm feeling a little overwhelmed and a lot excited! I have never been thin, and I am soooo tired of being considered thick ( P.C. for fat)! 2011, and so on, will be my time to shine. It's time to go from fat to fabulous. Let Operation Fine by Summertime commence! Special thanks to everyone who has ever posted on this site! You have been my comrades in this war to lose weight! I could not do it without every single one of you!

I so remember those last few days before surgery. I went through every emotion possible, but KNEW I was doing the right thing for me. At that time, I hoped to be a size 10 when I got to goal. I never thought size 4 would be my reality!!!!

Best of luck ... keep us posted on your progress.

Wow! Congrats on the excellent weight loss! I can't ever remember being a size 4! Perhaps when I was a toddler! At this point in my life, any weight loss, is good weight loss! I just can't weight to get back to being myself. It'll be nice to not be the fattest face in pictures. It was either surgery, or finding friends with bigger heads than my own. The latter is probably impossible! So, VSG surgery it is! My days of yo-yo dieting are hopefully coming to an end!

I really like the sound of Operation Fine by Summertime! Last summer I felt like I was dying any time it was over 80 degrees. I was so self-concious I wouldn't wear shorts or capris or tank tops. This year will be so much better! I'm looking forward to losing enough weight that I can wear my cute strappy sandals again!

      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.
