Being Real 9 Weeks



Recommended Posts

Just a quick note. Lost 48 lbs and loving it. I've gone shopping and love buying things that aren't followed by W's.

I've had some burping issues so not only taking Pecid ac but Tums, has helped a lot. So glad I had the surgery it is making my life so much better. Will start working out tomorrow at the gym. Yes I've have been procrastinating with this but it's time to get serious. I would love to be at goal by Christmas or at least close. 55 more lbs to go. Could be possible if I really work out like I should. Wishing to all success!

Congrats to you, we are really close in our goals. I am down 59, 44 since surgery with a goal of 46 lbs to go! We can do it by Christmas...no problem. I need to hit the gym harder as well, I have been slacking the last couple weeks. I have been so busy with my Dad being sick and working in my yard ( it is 3/4 of an acre!) so I am getting some exercise but not enough. Lets kick this into gear... we can do this!!!

You guys will be really close to goal by Xmas! No worries. Just follow the sleeve rules and keep all carbs really low. Eat a lot of Proteins and Omega 3 rich foods. Drink a lot of Water too. ;)

      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.
