Did you have to have any cosmetic surgery? You look awesome

Ha! You made my day! No cosmetics. My saggy, flabby, skin tucks nicley into my pants and shirts. I swore that I wouldn't be sad and not enjoy the weight loss because of the extra skin. It is an easier promise to make than to keep. ;-)

Holy crap! You look fricken amazing!!! Wow! All that hard work has paid off! What a huge transformation! So so happy for you. You must feel amazing!!

What has been your favorite thing since shedding over 150 pounds?

Great question! I think being "normal" has be the best friggin' part of the weight loss. Looking and feeling normal ...yep thats it!

You look amazing! I'm starting out at 50 pounds lighter than what you are, but I carry a lot of my weight in my stomach like you did. Is your stomach skin terrible? I know saggy skin is inevitable, but I can dream that maybe it won't be as bad as I think!

My stomach skin isnt terrible. I really thought it would be much worse. In clothes I look normal and if I wear a Spanx type thingy.. I almost look skinny. When I get to goal maybe I will be brave enough to take some skin pics. I was always curious about what people really looked like after a big loss.

      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.
