Hi Lisa Surgery was not painful except for a few minor things! Tough right after but its key to follow the pre op diet it helps you mentally and physically!

At the time of the surgery I weighed 529 pounds I am a year in and I currently weigh 355 pounds! Feeling great!

mike,

applause, applauce, applauce

so happy for your amazing transformation. You must feel absolutely besides yourself, healthier, and happier

losing all that weight, being able to do things now that you possibly could never have done before. it must be such a wonderful feeling. You should go on this site for people that have more than 200+'s to lose. they will feel (as do we all) that its possible to lose weight, no matter how much you have to lose.

keep up the amazing work - please come to the neighborhood again periodically, tell us how your doing, certain challenges you might be having - etc. we're all here to give support, and definitely for any advice you could give us <_<

continued best of luck

great work

kathy

Awesome job!!!.. yeah, I had a "bone head, big girl moment" about 20 minutes ago... Ate creme brulee and Sleevina got all irritable and upset.. Girl, wouldn't calm down until I got it up and out!!! I hate throwing up!! UGH!!!!.. But, she's feeling a little better.. I'm only going to give her liquids for the rest of the day as my way of apologizing...

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
