Do you lose the weight uniformly ?



Recommended Posts

When losing the weight after surgery, what part of the body do you lose the weight first, second and third? I would like to hear from all to see where and what stages the weight was lost. Is it done uniformly , stomach, legs, arms or what?

Thank you.

My tops have gone from a 3X to a L but my bottoms have only gone from a 24 to a 20/18. I am losing breast faster than I would like, but the hips and thighs are still here. Maybe its just my body shape.

I seem to lose from the top down. Face, then neck, then arms/chest..etc

Same as when I'd lose weight before the surgery - from the top down.

Hahaha! The fat just melts away, and all you have left is a skin suit that used to fit over the fat ass hanging there....sad butt. However I have hope for filling it up with some fine muscle. When I flex my gluts I have a nice butt, true... however I have yet to be able to hold them flexed forever... so they remain flat most of the time. :^( I expect the butt suit to shrink at least a bit in the future as well.

      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. 🤞
