7 Month Before and After



Recommended Posts

I have always hated taking pictures so I dont have too many before pictures. I was looking through my husbands phone and ran across this picture from December 2010 which was a few weeks before my surgery so I has to do a before and the after photo was taken about 3 weeks ago. Its weird cause every one says how skinny I am and I dont see it. I know that I have lost weight since the scale and clothes tell me. I can only see the difference when I look at old photos and new photos of myself. I am only 2 pound from goal so I will have to post new pictures when that day comes.

Wow girl!!! You look amazing, way to go! I know what you mean though about not seeing yourself as others do. I need to go dig up some old pics for a little esteem booster.

Thanks for sharing and congrats!!

You look awesome! That's the exact reason I took a REALLY unflattering set of before pics (wearing a tight tank top and spandex bike shorts) so I would be able to easily see differences month over month.

You look great! You have a beautiful hour glass shape. Way to go!

How did you set your goal weight? I still have 35-ish pounds to lose and wondered how you picked your number.

I picked my goal weight based on my BMI and the highest weight to be in a healthy weight based on BMI is 159.9 pounds since I am 5'7". My doctor wants my body fat under 30% and I was at 33% when I weighted 178 pounds so I am hoping to be under 30% when I have my next follow up appointment on Sept 16th. My personal goal is 149 because I have always wanted to weight less than 150 pounds and I know that should put me at a solid size 6.

      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. 🤞
