Recommended Posts

8/23 first surgery and late sept was the second (I don't know the date...I was pretty sick) but I'm down almost 47lbs. My starting weight is also kinky cuz first surgery date it was 170 then went up 40lbs LOL so I used the last weigh in at hospital which was 182... I'm 4' 12" :) I have a lot of plateau's but no issues with my skin or hair so I'll be fine with slow losses (in comparison to others) for now. My scale is currently teasing me with the 141's...moving .1 lbs or so every few days LOL I just want to be 130something before I head to hollywood on the 24th (which I know in hollywood is severely obese, but what the heck...I'll like me LOL)

Surgery on 9/25 - 77 pounds total - 18 of that on the pre-op diet. :)

Yes, a bit of hair loss, but I have a lot of hair - so hoping it slows down!

I was sleeved September 10/2012

I know it's weird but I really am not sure how much I've lost. I do know I went from a size 18/20 to a size 6/7. I'm having the worst Hair loss and its scary. Other than that I'm great :)

September 25th here. Starting weight, 257, day of surgery 237, current 155. 4 more to surgeons goal (my scale, I'm sure more on his, lol) and 7 more to my goal. Hit a bit of a stall right now but Hopefully it will start moving again soon. If not, I can live with my 155 and being a Size 8/10.

      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. 🤞
