I plan on never going back. Ive maintained my weight for 2+ years ( w/ weekly excercise of course). Its so much easier to excercise at 170lbs than it is at 330lbs! Best of luck to everyone

Im almost 4 yrs out. I eat everything except pasta... makes me dump. I eat about a 1 - 1 1/2 cups of food at a time. I never feel the need to eat, never have hunger pains. I can eat whenever i want and i can drink something the same time i eat unlike right after surgery when it was either drink something or eat something. I do a lot of greek salads, oatmeal, chicken, mashed pot, fruits and veggies (except cucumbers bc i had one get stuck and it was horrible)

That's great. Am 4 months out n I feel terrible If I eat anything I feel guilty eat doesn't matter if its small I still feel bad nothing gets me sick only one time when I ate a piece of meat it got stock but besides that nothing. Sometime I don't want to eat. Am so confused after surgery is even harder to eat cause I don't want to go back to my old habits

Ya, i felt the same way. When i was just out of surgery i ate very very very little. only a few bites of food a day and a little bit of Water. I think thats why I lost so much weight so fast.

Thank you. I didnt have any plastic surgery. I do have extra skin but its hard to see in the video and pics. I plan on having a TT even tho family and friends say i dont need it. I do a lot of walking in the summer. Thats about all the excercise I do. I have no extra skin on my legs, arm and neck... just my belly has some extra.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
