9 month check-in



Recommended Posts

Hi December sleevers! Let's chime in on our progress. It's been 9 months and I'm down to some 14-16 dresses from a size 24. My weight loss has slowed, but I'm happy with my progress. Can't wait to get to onederland! I have 32 more pounds to get under 200#. Still getting a handle on Vitamins and I'm living with no regrets! Rocking my sleeve!

Hey Dec Sleevers! I have no regrets either! Yes, it's awesome being in one hundred land! I was so thrilled when I got there? You doing great will be there before you know it! I have reached my dr goal but not minds yet! Yes, the weight has slowed but I am okay with that because I am healthy and feeling great? It seems like on a daily base coworkers ask how much you Lost? I just smile and say, girl I don't even know. Just put my clothes on and if they don't fit, just buy more. That way, they will get the hint, stop asking me lol! Some are happy, some are haters! I care less I am happy and rocking my sleeve! Be blessed everyone! Oops speaking of Vitamins, I have to remember to take it. Hate taking vitamins. Thinking if doing the Gummy ones or flint stones. I saw that on the list, but I think gummy was not on there. Have anyone tried gummy vitamins.< /p>

I didn't really get an "approved" vite list but I'm only four weeks post-op and doing Gummy multivites, gummy Calcium with D3, gummy B12, and a prilosec (Omeprezole) capsule daily. I've lost 29 lbs so far and haven't had a problem with the vites.

Congrats to you all! I will hit 9 months on 09/24. I have so far lost 120 lbs. I am only 13lbs away from my final goal. I went from a size 22 to a size 8!!!

I have a ton of energy, can pretty much eat what I want. Best thing I've ever done in my life.

      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. 🤞

      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.
