A new picture of me and my 2 boys



Recommended Posts

Still working on my BMI. I have lost almost 200 lbs started at 454 and right now at 264 I wear a size 38 pants and I have to say I have allot of skin left over on my tummy. Checked outta BMI last night and apparently I need to be down to 220 to be a normal weight so I guess it's back to running was going to start trying to gain more muscle. Curves are literally gone. I will say since the surgery and the wait loss I have a tone of energy and exercising especially running is soooo much easier. I would like to find a workout friend in my area essentially the greater Seattle area someone who has gone through similar circumstances. I've lived large all my life and I find it hard to make new friends.. Guess I'm kinda shy... But now after losing allot of weight all I want to do is get out there make new friends and not get back to the same old bad habits of working and watching tv. I want to live life to its fullest!!!

      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. 🤞
