BEFORE AND AFTER PICS 1 YEAR LATER



Recommended Posts

I remember thinking, will this work. Maybe I can do it on my own...I was terrified and excited at the same time. I had lost 12 lbs. prior to surgery and 18 lbs. on my own before that. In the before pics I'm wearing a size 14 misses Levis and XL tank, and in the after taken a few minutes ago, I'm wearing a size 4 misses Levis and S tank. I still have my muffins, but at least they are mini compared to last year AND I don't work out like I should. Anyhoo, I'm so glad I had the support that talked me in to going for it and here I am today and couldn't be happierbiggrin.gif

Thanks to ALL who have inspiried me on this journey love and blessings to ALLLLL!

Awww thanks coops! So sweet of you! OK I will look for the before and after thread :)

So far, so good. I think I finally caught the hang of maintaining (knock on wood lol)...I bounce from 145-148, today 147 and started my period today, that in itself is another huge miracle. Before I could easily gain 5-10 lbs. on my period, it still blows my mind.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
