Thanks Everyone for the kind comments! I'm only 23, I used to feel much older being so overweight. Now I think I finally starting to look and feel my age! In response to the question, I just take my weight loss one day at a time. I listen to EVERYTHING my nutritionist tells me, and actually do follow mostly everything. In my program, we don't count calories. The main goal is ensuring 60-80 grams of Protein each day. I don't eat many carbs at all, and focus on lean meats and veggies primarily. I also am very active as a nurse, and love spinning classes at my local gym. I truly appreciate all of the kind remarks, they are so encouraging! Also, I'm 5'3"

My jaw dropped looking at your before & after pics!!! Oh my heavens, I just can't get over how absolutely GORGEOUS you look! You were beautiful before too, but now ~ WOW!! You really do look younger & you're kind of giving me a glimpse of what I could look like someday! I weigh 4 pounds less than your highest weight & we're the same height, so I could look very much like you (well, except for your beautiful youthful face & my ugly OLD face) when I hit onederland too one day!!! God Bless you!!

      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.
