I have a question... I was sleeved on September the 15th. I have recently been working out with a trainer for almost two months. We take my measurements weekly. Today we took my measurements on my waist and I went up three inches, but my hips went down an inch. When measuring my waist, he told me that I had the tape in the wrong place, but I didn't Bc it was right across my bellybutton. He said it is lower than where he measures each week and it seemed to be like I was almost to my hip line. So my question is does you bellybutton drop...is this just part of this crazy process and it will all come together at the end? I mean there is such a thing called gravity... Please if anyone has any thoughts or suggestions on my measurements please let me know. I dropped weight this week too... Just confused. Thanks in advance!

Tbh I love your question bc I believe your correct!! Due to my pregnancies my muscles stretched. Badly. That being said, I also overall had about 85-100 lbs extra to lose... Depending on how you look at my weight. I since delivering two years ago, had a six month pregnant look. Everything else looked OK. Now that I've been losing the weight since my surgery, my belly had gone down drastically and bc I have extra skin. Not a ton but will definitely need a panni or abdominoplasty my belly button looks slightly lower, not crazy or anything but I believe it's because I'm losing so much in the mid section. I think I will try taking my measurements, I've never done that.

My journey is just beginning I have hit stall after stall but I am not giving up. I been at a stall for about a month, some days are better than others. At times I can eat very little and be good all day and some days I feel like I can eat a lot more. I do workout 6 days a week for the most part. post-242214-14325122692873_thumb.jpg

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
