I'm in even though I'm pre-op.. My surgery is July 2nd.. I currently weigh 657 - goal is 600 by surgery and I know it's a lot but I'm on all Protein liquid diet and not straying one bit from here on out.. I want the gold at the end of that rainbow damnit!

Starting weight: 670

Current weight: 657

Surgery weight: TBD

Well didn't do as well as I'd like currently 643.

But okay I guess since I'm 18 hours pre sleeve.

I applaud you even doing a challenge being pre-sleeve, not many folks do that.

Here's to you welcoming you to the other side.... "the losers bench". Keep us posted once you are up to it after surgery!

Good luck!

This week was not a good week for me; I had a fibro flare and a visit from Aunt Flo. I swelled and gained 2#, so this hampered my progress. I was able to take it back off +1# more though. In the end I lost 3#, but I am only 1# lighter. I don't think I will make it to my new adjusted goal now :0/

HW 335

Wk 2 -3# (6/11/12)

Wk 3 -5# (6/17/12: a day earily)

Wk 4 -1# (6/25/12)

Well, I made it to my first goal, but I'm not sure that I will make it to my second. But I will be close. I am almost to the Century Club.

      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.
