haha I had just made a post and then saw this!! Before surgery I really wanted to see what people's stomachs looked like and I could not find anything. Thanks for being brave and posting yours. I'll add mine onto here too. You look awesome!! Very inspiring :) Congrats and Happy Summer!!! :)

Excuse the horrible stretch marks from the "before" pictures - I just find the before pictures give people a good idea of the progress possible!! :)

Have you had plastics? Your stomach looks great?

No I haven't had plastics. I did work out a lot throughout the last year and had a "core routine"

Thanks!

About the gallbladder. I had mine removed about 5 years before wls. I had terrible dumping syndrome. It went on for sometime. I had meds to help control it. Still had occasional problems up until my wls. Since surgery (7wks ago) I have had no problems.

I broke down n bought my first bikini in over 14 years. Please ignore my bloated bandaged orange belly' date=' I just had my gallbladder taken out yesterday so still full of c02. Can't believe I found a top to keep the girls up n shaped nicely, cuz naked they sure aren't in that position lol.[/quote']

You look amazing! Love the bikini. It's super cute.

Ok I already shared different pics but I got a different bikini to address my boob issues (saggy DDs) This is the Victoria Secret Very Sexy double string bikini.There is an underwire plus light pads in the triangle top and it helps a lot I think :)

Hey fellow sleevers' date=' down 93lbs with 15 more lbs to go. Am 6 months out - no complications except a dodgey gallbladder that I refuse to get taken out! No Hair loss, no stalls, and minimal lose skin so far.

Attached is a cheesy bikini pic that I was going to save to compare to my one year when I have abs of steel and a killer tan to match - but what the hell. I was really curious to see others post weight loss to see scaring and lose skin etc but they are really hard to find! So heres mine! Please note that this is post c-section of a 9lb baby 11 months ago!

If any are brave enough to share theirs please do - I need inspiration!

This was from 6 months ago - think I need an updated pic! Workouts - I run and strength train with a personal trainer 2x per week and run 2-3 times a week. Eating - I'm really not the best example! I prob eat more chocolate than Protein but I do try to eat between 1000-1200 calories a day. In my real losing phase that was around 800. Everyone's metabolism is different so its about finding the right place between starvation mode, losing, maintenance and gaining for you and then working that in with exercise :)

        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.

      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
