Total weight loss 99 lbs.!!! I now refer to my self as the little engine that could! Its been slow but I'm getting there! Only 26 lbs to go!!! Yipee!

Surgery date was 3/21/2012

and I started at 285. I now weigh 186. I'm 5'6"...so on the tall side for a female. My surgeon says although my weight loss has been less dramatic than that of others on this site, the plan he has for me and where I should be at this point in time I'm ahead of schedule! So wonderful to hear! I am satisfied. Not even 9 months out yet! My personal goal was to be -100 lbs by my birthday so I need to lose 1 lb by December 30

First time Ive replied to a weigh in ~ 6 mos plus a week today and I've reached 99 lbs down. Only about 15 lbs to go to reach goal weight.

That is so totally excellent

I am a band converter too. I noticed you gained weihht after surgery and so have I. 4lb gain post op. Is this normal?

Yes my doc said its normal, because its the weight of air and everything else that goes on during surgery. Not sure of all the details, but I lost it fast, no big deal :)

      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.
