I'm Half Way Home!!!!



Recommended Posts

I am so excited today....I am half way to my goal today!!!!! I can't believe it. I feel so wonderful....life is so exciting now.

I also had some great NSV's this past week too...double yeah!!!

I wore a sleeveless top.

I fit in those attached chairs/desk at the high school.

I purchased two tops without trying them on in a size which I thought I was not in yet, but they fit PERFECTLY.

I LOVE MY BAND:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

To everyone embarking on this journey.....good luck, speedy recovery and get ready for a wonderful new beginning :)

Yeah I probably will be there. I have taken a few months off from the meetings so feel the need to get back in there regularly. I will let you know when it gets closer for sure.

      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. 🤞

      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.
