I have lost 50 lbs total and 30 since the surgery.

I think that you are losing great! I found that when I added in some carbs that I shouldn't eat they stalled my weight loss, so when I went back to mainly Protein with some fruit and veggies I started to lose again. I was sleeved 3/18/ 2013 and I have lost 77 lbs. total about 50 lbs. since surgery.

I find that this surgery is like having a baby. You can talk to 1,000 people and no 2 people have the same experience. I feel like each person has to find what works for them. I was sleeved 3-27 and have lost 73 lbs since surgery. Not allowed any fruit and I never eat it. But I cheat with carbs. I can eat pretty much anything without feeling bad. I joined this awesome fitness ace called 9 round. I have never had such am awesome workout and it only takes 30 minutes. Tones all those loose skin places except my lower belly. That's my story. So far :)

Thanks for the reality check... I get focused on the posts from other people and I get upset that their progress is very drastic. I guess I just need to eat better-ER and work out more.

      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.
