And before & after pics?



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on Nov 15th, just a little over six weeks ago. Here is a link to a post with a before and after pic I made last Friday at 6 weeks post op. I've got a long way to get to my goal but even in that short a period of time you can see significant changes.

My surgery date was May 18 2012. Starting weight 246. And at 7 months I now weigh 177. My goal is 160. The last picture was from a week ago. Best decision of my life!! Good luck! :)

I had my surgery 4/19/12, so December 19 was 8-months post-op. I started at 241, and today I weight 138. I am only a few short pounds away from being "normal" weight for my height (5'1" tall)

Here are a couple pics, but the full-body ones are about 7 pounds heavier than I weigh now.

Before - Approx. 250lbs

      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.
