I'm guilty of seeing how far I still have to go instead of how far I've come. I've got to work on that bc I'm doing well!!

I agree. I love seeing pictures. What really bugs me is when people post updates, such as finally lost -100 lbs, or finally hit onderland, finally made it to goal, or 1 or 2 year surgiversery and they don't attach pictures. WTF man nothing speaks more than a photo. There are a lot of people who don't post their profile pictures, I guess a lot of that is a wish to remain anonymous.

Well all I can say is I personally don't respond to progress updates on weigh, if there aren't any pictures attached. It may be mean or whatever, but in all honesty I am a visual person and I just really love reading a story with an updated pic at the end of it.

Ps everyone looks awesome!!! Keep up the good work my fellow sleevers.

With all that said here are my before and after as I am now a camera wh0re!!!

I'm 5'2, don't be so hard on yourself . I felt that way the first month , things will get better , be confident , I wanted quicker results, but I'm learning to accept 1-2 lbs a week , when others are losing more. Fact is, before the surgery , I wasn't losing any lbs per week & stuck being fat. At least now it's slowly coming off. It will happen for you , good luck .

My husband and I had our surgery 2 weeks apart. He started at 454 and is down to 341 and I started at 345 down to 275. His surgery date was Aug 27 and mine was Sept 10. Best decision ever. The top pic was 3 weeks after his and a week after mine. Bottom pic was this weekend!

      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.
