Recommended Posts

Congrats on your sucess Dawn!!

I have not met my weight loss for Oct:think I am getting my first fill Monday so I am hoping to get the weightloss happening again.

But I have stayed away from the scale:) I have not been on the scale more than once a day.

Thanks Lila,

I am sure that the fill will help. I too have a love hate relationship with my scales. I now have a routine to weigh in friday and monday and that is it (almost always) It is kind of interesting because I notice I almost never loose weight on the weekends! Wierd- but I guess I am home and maybe eat a little more.

I am going to Quebec and MOntreal next week - I have to fly from the Arctic and can't wait to shop!!

Good luck with the fill.

Good job, everyone who made their goals, and who didn't. Who cares, right? As long as it's going down, it's all good. I'll let you know what my total is tomorrow.. but I don't think it's gonna be pretty, unless something miraculous happens in the last couple days. If it doesn't, I blame the gym!

      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.
