You Look FABULOUS, I hope I do as well as you have.. and yes its been quite a journey.. im only 4mo out and have a ways to go.. I do go to the gym now and work out 3days a week.. thats all I have time for with 2 full time jobs.. my wt loss has slowed up some.. but thats ok.. I eat right and dont eat a lot of sweets.. I do every now and then cuz it is ok... im down 85lbs in 4 months so I must be doing something right.. my stomach wont let me eat the crazy fast food stuff.. ive tasted it..and my tummy is like yuck.. Im like YaY tummy... so my tastes have changed so very much.. nothing is really appealing to me at all.. so I like that.. and im not ever hungry..and I dont ever drink soda or carbonated anything.. I drink my Water or crystal light lemonade.. I love that.. and I dont miss any of the foods I used to eat.. even at work they are all eating donuts and cinnamon rolls.. I pass them up.. and I think to myself.. you didnt need that anyways..and it doesnt really sound good cuz its bread and the tummy doesnt like bread.. lol but thank you for being an inspiration for those of us still in the newby catagory.. we have but only good things to look forward too.. thank you for that.. Bless you. :)

Oh! Wow... incredible! Your must be so thrilled! Congratulations!

THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this!

My surgery date is coming up and I have been struggling with fear and doubt! I'm planning to push through and go ahead with the surgery - but your post, your pictures, and your testimony are all such an encouragement to me! You hit on some of the exact issues that I have been struggling with spiritually!

You and I don't know each other, but God just used you to touch my heart and encourage me.

I so appreciate you sharing!

:)

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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
