Thank you so much again for the extremely kind words. I can't wait until the fourth picture is one of me holding out the waist of the jeans to show a large gap! The abroad program I did in college, semester at sea, is having a big 5 year reunion cruise leaving on January third, so I'm going to try to lose 40-45 more pounds by then...fingers crossed! I'm not in love with the idea of hitting a Mexican beach with a bunch of friends I haven't seen in 5 years. The goal is to at least look decent in a sarong!

Wow you look fantastic! You seem to carry a lot of weight in the middle and I think that may be why your sizing has been slow to decrease but you have almost totally lost all the bulk of the mid section weight!! Totally amazing job!!

I DEFINITELY carry most of my weight in my mid section (not that every other part of me is small)! I do a bootcamp that focuses on a different body part each day if the week, but one day of abs definitely isn't enough! I've been spending extra time on abs and obliques. Hopefully that'll help!

      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. 🤞
