Don't lose too much - aaaargh!



Recommended Posts

I know I will be getting this from my Dad. He is already asking me where I'm losing weight from. He says don't let your face get too skinny. Isn't there a way to make more weight come off your thighs? I said yeah sure Dad, I'll put my weightloss proportion order in right now.

People can be so idiotic sometimes! Mostly it's because they don't know what to say. Why do they have to comment on anyone's weight, fat or thin? If I saw an unattractive person, I wouldn't feel the need to tell them they are ugly. Or that they look better now that they put some make up on. You can't tell I've lost weight yet (30 pounds lost) but I'm bracing myself for the backhanded compliments. I'm thinking my husband and kids observations will be the only ones I will trust.

I guess this is where the term "Devil's Advocate" comes in. My second ex husband (not that I am hard on men) told me that every time I lose weight I get jowls. Geeze Luize. I didn't try again until after I left him to wait hand and foot on his own self, in the middle of the night. I am one of those people who loses weight from the top down, too. With the surgery coming up, I know my belly will catch up this time. It is a shame that those snipers can't mind their own business.

      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. 🤞
