Just wanted to share an updated before/after. I reached goal yesterday. 2 years and 23 days' date=' seemed like forever, but so fast at the same time. Life is good :)

Starting weight, May 2011, 375 lbs .... vs .... Goal weight, July 2013, 150 lbs

That is awesome!!! Congrats!!! I have a few questions if you don't mind.... How tall are you? My highest weight was 330, surgery weight 3 weeks ago was 322, current weight 304. I am 5'8 and my goal is about 160.

Did you need or have you had any Excess skin removal surgery? Did you end up with bat wings and rolls of skin on your thighs, and/or your stomach....those are my areas of concern.......

what exercises have you been doing? I want to be as successful as possible!! Thanks!!!

I'm 5'6"

LOTS of skin. I have had one consult who estimates I have about 10 pounds of skin to be removed. I hope next Summer to get started with abdominal work. I eventually also need boobs, arms, thighs at the very least.

I was working out 5 times per week until a year ago. I went through a depression that had me in a bad place and now I'm awaiting a double lumbar fusion late this month. So... absolutely nothing other than an occasional walk for the past year.

53 pounds lost. I'm a slow loser but at least I'm still losing. It can be so depressing watching the scale remain in the same place

      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.
