I Want To See Before & After Pics!



Recommended Posts

It's my 4 month sleevaversary and I am 73 pounds down. A tall 5'10, 50 years old and about half way to my weight loss goal.

I love this thread and return to it often for motivation and inspiration. Seeing everyones photo's gives me hope.

I stalled at 3 weeks and only lost 3 pound in weeks 3-6 but usually lose about 2 pounds a week. I weight lift 3 times a week for an hour and should do more cardio, but what I am doing is a huge improvement over the nothing I use to do, so I am proud of myself. I track my food on MFP, because it would be easy for me to eat too much of the wrong things if I did not record it.

I love my sleeve and have no regrets, it has been so much easier, yes the loss so much slower, then I thought it would be.

73 pounds down!

      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.
