50 Pound Mark...finally! Slowly But Surely...steady She Goes...



Recommended Posts

Stepped on the scale today and YIPPEE finally hit the first goal of 50 pounds off. It's been slow but, understandable with all the dang antibiotics and issues but, finally off the antibiotics and feeling good. Naturally I would love more off than this but, at the same time I'm extremely happy. We all look at each others weightloss and journey but, in the end we're on our own journey. This I know and keep reminding myself. This helps keep my sanity on the weightloss and better health journey. One day at a time, one meal at a time, one forkful at a time and I'll get there. Thank you all for your support and friendship here at RNYTalk. I'm truly enjoying it all and saying my thankfuls for each and every day.

Even the days when the scale doesn't move, the antibiotics, the infections etc....I know this was the right decision to better health.

Hugs to all and I'm here for you too! :)

I hit my 50 pound mark this morning (51 to be exact). The scale wouldn't give it to me yesterday but it gave it to me today! *happy dance* I am down 50 post op and the 30 I lost pre op I am down 80 pounds from January when my journey began. That's the most I've ever lost and I feel great! I'm wearing tops I have held on it for vain reasons and pants that were dusty but fit great :) I still have a long road ahead of me but this feels good!

And to top it off I am only 8 pounds away from being out of the 3's! I never want to see a 3_ _ ever ever again! Not Onederland yet, but I'll be Twoexcited :)

Have a great day everyone!

      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.
