Autumnpunkin, you look fabulous!! Do you have a lot of extra skin? I'm worried bc I have been overweight my whole life so I have done a number on my belly and arms and legs.

Hey autumn punkin, you look fabulous!! My surgery date in Sept the 18th I'm so excited but I have a question. I have been overweight my whole life and I'm worried about my skin. You look great and don't seem to have that problem. Is that the case? And if so is there a trick to getting rid of it?

You look awesome! And you have major guts to show us all your tummy!! You go girl!

I had lose skin before this all started on my belly from pregnancy & from getting a c-section so I am curious if I will have to/want to get that done as well.

How bad was the pain? That's a lot to recover from good luck with your healing!!!

This post is amazing. I'm going in 10/2 and weigh around 246- 247lbs. I have about 100 lbs to lose and this was so encouraging. Nervous as heck but so excited at the same time. You all look so wonderful!

Country girl, I've tried to text you and messaged you on here, I'm not sure if it went through. My surgeon was DR. Nathan Brought: southern plastic and reconstructive surgical institute in franklin tn. Tell him I referred you! He has been wonderful! I will be going back for my arms and legs later.

The pain was pretty bad the first 3 days but after that I only took Tylenol. It was rough but totally worth it. I'm back at work already!

      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.
