Here are some side by side before and after from before surgery and 2 months after. The picture in the jean shorts is 3 months after and the picture in striped sleeveless blouse is 3 1/2 months after surgery. I have went from 303 lbs to 244 lbs since March 17th. I have fallen off good eating habits and the gym but getting back into it. Hope this is motivating. It's hard at times but soooo worth it!!!!

I think everyone has at least a few moments of regret or buyer's remorse after surgery. Most of us abused food for years and made it so that at least for a few weeks we can't. Plus waking up in a hospital bed is rarely ever seen as something we associate as being good.

The first two days after surgery, I wondered wtf did I just do to myself? Now I am glad I did it but I am sure that thought will pop up again from time to time. I think that is to be expected.

      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.
