Raine - you look great! I would have guessed your age in your mid 30's - not your 40's! Do you wear a heard hat for work, or were you doing something like Habitat for Humanity when you were wearing it? It is a good look for you - particularly with that wonderful smile you have on under the hard hat!

My face has gone from a moon-round face with no wrinkles and multiple chins to a heart shaped face with definate crows feet and smile lines and some lose neck skin under a single chin. I have much more lose skin on the parts of my body covered with clothes.

You are too sweet! You look truly amazing.

I was doing a Habitat for Humanity House Build here in Charlotte. I volunteered with the guys from the office. LOL I was the only woman that showed up from our group! My boys all showed me how and what to do. :)

Oh you look GREAT!! :) Really amazing difference, like two different people in those pictures.

I do have some terrible (TERRIBLE) arms and the GD turkey wattle neck (boo hoo), but most other areas are doing okay (touch wood...).

That is just the opposite, only a couple of times in my life has my face not been round like pics 1 and 2. I look in the mirror now or see a picture like the last one with the hard hat, and am in amazement and wonder sometimes, is that really what my face is supposed to look like, and then I smile bigger LOL.

My face has changed loads too, I was noticing it the other day when looking through some old photos. I think I look older now :/

I added an extra one for comedy value! :P

Oh and the fascinator was at my newphew's wedding a couple of weeks ago, I don't usually wear Gaga hats! LOL.

Haha, thanks all. Funny how we see ourselves isn't it?

I still feel about three stone heavier and photos are always a bit of a surprise at how small I actually am now. Nice surprise though! :P Body dysmorphia or something isn't it? I think my brain hasn't yet caught up to my body.

You guys all look amazing! *big claps to everyone and their fantastic losses*

      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.

      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.
