WOW!!! That's so exciting, congratulations! I hope to be in the same boat someday...I doubt I will ever be a size 6 (my German/Irish stock just won't allow it, LOL) but I would love to see your kind of success (and I am currently a size 24, like you were). Keep up the good work!

Can this be possible...after only 7 months.

Apparently,that is Amazing ! I wish a size 6 was big on me I am 6.5 months out and I was only(I know it's not small)an 18 . A 6 would probably barely button and zip and I would be afraid a button would fly off and kill someone :P This I must see....

Great job...you are definately a success story that many want to achieve...now saying that...remember my friends those that are still a size 24 like myself...we all want to be smaller and would have or still say if I could only fit a size 14...this would still be an accomplishment worth celebrating!

      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.

      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.
