Hello everyone!

My name is Loren. I am 5'4" and weigh 195. I'm self-pay and flying to the Dominican Republic on July 1st. My goal weight is 135. Is this reasonable? My lowest weight as an adult was 145 at 19 years old-- I was literally starving myself and taking all kinds of "supplements". Please keep posting your updates on this group page.

Hi! I get sleeved on Wednesday and I am having fears about complications. I have lost 45 pounds pre-op so my fears of being fat are now replaced by fears of long term complications. I am 5'2 and weight 185. I know that if I start to gain weight again I will immediately want the surgery so I am going ahead with it. Keep me in your prayers!

      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.
