Of course we rock!! Lol. I'm just glad so many of us are still on here. It's great to have people at the same stage. :-)

I agree! I don't always have time to post but I read every thing as it comes into my email and it is always encouraging to see that I am not alone!

scale broke a week or so ago when our apartment flooded, but at last check I have gone from 320 right before surgery to 265. I have gone from 4x & sz 28 or 30 to 1x & 2× (depending) & 22 pants.

I am still struggling to get my fluids in & just this past week started working out a little.

Today my cousin gave me a whole bag of 14/16 shirts and 99% of them fit. I've never been this small I have a collar bone now. And am constantly touching it. It's so weird the things and changes my body is doing

You guys look awesome!

Lisa holy cow you've lost so much already!

I keep touching my hip bones. They make me feel like it's working!

However I saw myself in the mirror on Friday at work and realized I still have a LONG way to go. I'm ok with that. Actually it's good I realize not to get complacent with where we are now.

Go team Nov! Corny huh? Lol

My best friend and I went shopping yesterday because I really wanted a cheap winter coat, all of mine needed to be replaced this year but I didn't want to spend the money knowing they weren't going to fit for long and now they look ridiculous. Anyway, I found one at Old Navy that was cute and SUPER cheap, immediately I grabbed the XXL and thought it was perfect... good thing I had her with me because she immediately said NO! Try on a smaller size... I thought she was nuts for a sec but I went ahead and tried on the XL and it fit perfectly! I almost cried!!! 2 1/2 months ago I was a 24 and that was snug.... sometimes I'm thrown off guard when I realize it really is working

      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. 🤞
