I did a YouTube video here at

and updated my blog at http://www.skinnyrenee.com

What an amazing and strange month. For anyone researching weight loss surgery and you're terrified like I was, just do it! I was the biggest sissy ever and it was something I NEVER thought I'd do but I don't regret one minute of it (ok maybe the dry heaves from the anesthesia, but still...). It's your life, you should make it everything you dreamed of...we only get one shot at it so make the most of it. I'm so ready to be healthy and fit and I'm well on my way. I never dreamed it would happen and I never in a million years thought I'd be crazy enough to do it but I'm so glad I found the courage.

If anyone here is still on the fence and wants to talk about it, I'm always just a pm away. Everyone is here to support your decision, seriously it's like a big family. If you're like me, I had tons of questions and everyone here is so willing to help you through this so honestly, don't wait. Like Nike says, JUST DO IT! lol

Hahaha "Big sissy"

Thanks for the pep talk! I look forward to reading more about your success! I recently fell over the fence...so I'm in the early stages of the prep process.

Thanks everyone! **HUGS!!** and yes, Sue, I was a big sissy! Believe me...I cried so much and then would turn around and be Evil Renee. The mood swings were horrible because my emotions were all over the place. I'm so glad that I forced myself to do it!

xoxo's, Renee`

      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.
