I'm 4'11"- so I'm super short. I'm not a crazy working out person- I actually just joined a gym, but I do walk a lot. I walk my kids to/from school and then run for about another mile or two every other day.

Everyone looks great! Congratulations!! Only about 4 weeks out from surgery I can tell I lost a few inches and its weird to measure this way but my towel closes after a shower. I use to have an opening gap between the ends of the towel and now it overlaps!! Yeah I know it's weird.. But once I get to it ill have to start taking pics of the journey.

I'm 5'7" so I'm feeling a bit taller than most of the women posting. Lol

They're pretty good honestly! This pic was taken on July 4th

I've lost about 10lbs since then.

And that was fairly recently- they aren't perfect, but they aren't HORRIBLE!

      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.
