Argon,

Look at how great you are doing! 99lbs is nothing to scoff at. Give yourself a Pat on the back and just start again this week. We've all been there and we'll join you in kicking the scale.

Happy lb hunting/target this week.

Congrats BlueGem on making the choice.

I was lurking here for quite some time before I decided to do the surgery. I have found this site to be extremly helpful. Welcome and good luck with the future banding. :D

Congratulations Bluegem!!!

Thank you.

I feel like a weird person.

Okay, you cannot type THIS, and expect me, or Yoda, for that matter to not respond! FEEL, WEIRD??????

Yeah... weird! I guess different too. I am constantly thinking "what am I doing trying to put these jeans/shirt/whatever on!?" Then I put them on, realize they're an 18, and too big.

I have lovely rolls on my back, they're shrinking, yes... but not fast enough. I honestly think if they were gone, I might be ok with everything else. They make me not what to wear anything too tight that'll show my 'back fat', or get trapped in it! Hopefully though, with the speed they're moving, at least I'll be getting down a few more sizes at least before these puppies are gone.

*edit - oh yeah... I'm not scoffing! I'm super happy and proud of the 99lbs. Maybe 99 even sounds more cool than 100?! I just want it to move already and let me keep going!!!*

      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.
