Well I am down 5.6 since last time I checked in on February 25th to 151.2. A little more than 20 lbs to my loose goal of 130. I'd really like to get to 120 or maybe 115 being 4'11''. Went on vacation 2 weeks ago and did lots of walking and driving, more than I have done since my leak. I think I really needed that, it kicked me in to gear and got me back in the swing.

How is everyone else doing?

Hi Libbe

I am doing really great too! I weigh 143. I am 8lbs away from goal. It seems impossible to get there. I am tall too though. 5'7. So people do think I am thin. I just got my blood work back and everything is perfect! No more high cholesterol. Yaaay. So happy. Even having gone through the ringger with my stricture I am sooo happy that I had this done. I am happy to hear you are doing so welll Libbe

Congrats on being close to goal!! Mine is still located in a galaxy far, far away! Lol! I started my journey at almost 300 lbs & I'm really working hard on accepting the fact that I'm not dreaming, this weight loss is real, and that I'm not going to wake up from this wonderful dream! I'm enjoying every single second of this journey & I KNOW that I will reach my goal--and that is priceless! :)

I was sleeved on 2/20/12 and as far as I know I've lost 43lbs. I don't own a scale, so I only weigh sporadically. I think I've lost more, because last night my pants fell down! Lol! Fortunately, I was at home! :)

Oops! I have alot left to go! My goal is not concrete, but somewhere in the range of 125-135. I'm not picky right now. I'm sure I'll feel differently after I start working out. What's your goal?

      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
