I'm similar. Sleeved 2/28

Preop 243

Surg 217

Now 189

Size 18 or 2xl to 12 medium.

I was also sleeved on 2/28/13. My highest weight is truly unknown to me but I'm sure it was in the 250s. My highest recorded weight was 247. SW 226. CW 196. Comparatively I seem to be a slow loser but I sure do feel better and my blood glucose levels are excellent without the use of any meds.

Kayluc, I can really see the difference. You look great, and I also like your shirts. :D I'm similar to you - started at 340, my highest weight ever, and am now 280.

I don't see a difference much when I look in the mirror, perhaps my tummy doesn't stick out as far as it used to, I can't really tell. But I had to put jeans away in the closet: size 32, 30, and my 28s are large now. I had to buy my first belt, otherwise I'm constantly hiking up the 28s so they don't fall down. I can't find any of my smaller size jeans, thought I had some!!

My underwear are loose and saggy. Very attractive.

I am starting to feel like my skin is loose on my arms.

Exciting!! I think I look like a melting candle or something, but I have so much more energy already, it's amazing and exhilarating.

Hi all February Sleevers!

Was sleeved on Feb 4, down 58lbs and 3lbs from hitting the one's! Haven't seen this weight since high school! Was a size 24 now moving into size 14! Exercising 4-5 times a week! I feel great! In the beginning I hoped it would be worth all the pain. I can safely say Heck Yea! Keep going and dont loose hope! We are worth it!

I was also sleeved on 2/4 and went from 258 to 206. I've been on so many stalls but I'm sure my occasional cocktail isn't helping. I need to exercise more too but I am using excuses not to. I'm in the sandwich generation with elderly mom and kids still at home plus a full time job and my husband just had two hip replacements in the last two months so I can honestly say that the lack of exercise isn't really my fault. I'm running like crazy from 7 am to midnight everyday. I wish I could take control of "me" again! I need to get back on track. I sure look and feel a lot better though! ????

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
