I used to weigh 250, now weigh 160, I can tie my shoes, breath when walking upstairs, feel my hip bones, see my toes, fit clothes that I like, not unsnap my jeans after every meal (or change into cotton jammie pants immediatly upon returning home from work), not feel like the fattest one in the room all the time and no more diabetes meds. Last but not least, not only do I not have to shop in the big girls stores anymore, they don't even have my size:clap2: !!! Lap Band has been a great friend to me! Most days anyway.;)

Wonderful post-Thanksgiving thread, Teresita!!

I used to consider 340 my "OK" stable weight. :) NOW I'm between 210 and 220 and consider that just a way station on the road to 200. THAT'S going to be my new "OK" stable weight.

My, how things do change! :rockon:

      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. 🤞
