Awesome job!!! You look gorgeous! I was sleeved 11/13 and I'm almost at 60lbs (57 as of this morning). I go for my follow up next Tuesday :). Looking forward to seeing what my doctor has to say.

I started at 233.5 and I am down to 196.5 as of this morning. My surgery date was 11/26/12 so it has been 12weeks. Going Slow ~ but I am exercising and feeling great and that is what it's all about - slow and steady will win this "race" B)

On the 7th I decided to treat myself to a weigh in. I made the choice not to weigh myself except at nut appts and surgeon appts and each month on my surgery date. Well on happy proud and jumping for joy because in 3 months I'm down 60 lbs and could not be happier!!!

How's everyone else doing???

That's great! On the 14th it was 3 months for me also, down 40lbs! My surgery day weight was 229. I have 22 lbs to lose to be at my surgeons target weight for me.... However I am shooting for the ideal body weight, 136! So my first goal is the target weight!

I was sleeved on November 29th and I've only lost 40 lbs. I was 228 in my day of surgery and I'm at 188 today. I feel like I'm losing at snail pace. I'd really like to get to my first goal of 150 by May 1 but I don't see that happening. My ultimate goal is 135-145.

40 pounds is great! For all the dieting I have done in the past I have never lost 40 in the first 3 months! ( I was feeling kind of behind myself until I put that in my mind) We will get there, stay positive:)

      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.
