How do you all get motivated to work out.....I get light headed like I am going to pass out' date=' just walking in wal-mart.....maybe something is wrong?[/quote']

Are you getting enough Protein? I have been going to the gym 5-6 days a week with no problem but I do get light headed if I don't get enough Protein. Also my blood pressure is pretty low so they may have something to do with it.

Sleeved 5/22

5'7" tall

Starting weight-246

Surgery day-234

Day after surgery-236

Today-202

Total weight lost-44lbs

For me: I drink a Protein Shake an hour before I got I the gym and drink Water while on the treadmill. It helps a lot. Start off with a short distance. As your tolerance builds up.....you'll do better. Lets all do this together.

:-)

Good Luck. Hope to see you shrinking.

Are you on blood pressure meds? They might need to be changed with weight loss?

I feel great' date=' losing weight, finally. I felt so conflicted about getting another surgery, I felt I had failed the lapband, what's to say that I won't fail with this. And I was eating right and exercising, but I couldn't stop throwing up with the band. My surgeon said he knew how I could feel that way, but the band failed me. Not the opposite. The first few weeks of the sleeved life is hard, but I'm 5 weeks out now, and I feel great![/quote']

I'm glad that u r ok nd everything is much better I can only amazing how u felt about the lapband I proli would have cried lol . But I'm very glad u r Ok nd keep up da good work

      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. 🤞
