I Did It! (Cue Oscar Music)



Recommended Posts

Hey gang

Sorry I have been MIA for awhile but I was getting obsessed with weight, it dominated my every thought so I decided to back away from everything weight related including my dark master the scale. So I just ate clean excercised and daily and went on my way. Decided to check the scale today and I am pleased to announce that I have SURPASSED my goal and since my goal was 200, that means I have been transported to ONEDERLAND! Still can't belive the speed at which it happened, from 311 to 196 in a touch over 5 months, Doc says Im atypical but Im a weirdo in every other way so it didn't suprise me. No more pre-diabetes, no more sore feet, no more bad ankles! I honestly feel like a teenager again. I can't remember the last time my weight began with a 1, I thought I was born 200 lbs!(poor mom) Anyway you guys were the first person I thought to share this with, guess I can change my profile pic from Fats to fast eddie now!

WOW!!! Incredible. :mellow: You men ain't no joke when it comes to weight loss. Forgive me but I'm just a little bit jealous over here.

Anyhoo, CONGRATS!! Sheesh, it seems like yesterday hearing you around here and your excitement for your upcoming surgery. If I may make a suggestion? Your screen name is no longer "fitting". B)

      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.
