Had my 6 week follow up today. I'm down 28lbs and no longer morbidly obese!! Just curious how much other June 25 sleeved have lost. Hope you all are doing well!

I had my surgery June 24. I have lost 25 pounds since surgery and 41 pounds altogether. I'm hoping to get cleared for exercise tomorrow at my six-week postop appointment. I'm so excited for all of us!!!

Congrats!! That's amazing! I'm down 31lbs since surgery on June 25. This past week I've been at a standstill weight wise. Hard not to get frustrated. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what foods I can handle.

I keep telling myself that this struggle is going to be worth it. :)

Hope everyone else is doing well!! It's been great to check back in on this thread to see you all so happy. :)

June 25th down 33.6. I don't have alot of cravings. But usually if I want something I'll have it because after 2 or 3 fork fulls I done anyway. Last weekend I really wanted a cheese steak. I got it, gave hubby half ,I ate about 4 forks of the meat and cheese no roll and I was full. Took 2 days to eat half of the sandwich w/o the roll

Sleeved June 25th. Seems like so long ago! Down 51 lbs total and about 30 since surgery. Feeling good, but struggle with eating and getting all my liquids in. No dehydration or other problems at this time :-). Congrats to everyone on their progress so far!

      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
