My one year anniversary



Recommended Posts

Here are my before and after pics....one year today. Dr says I lost 102% of excess body weight. I weighed in at 157 lbs today down from 285 a year ago.

I would like to that every one on the forum who have been supportive in helping me to achieve my weight loss goals. The road has been rough but I am extremely happy for the struggle! :)

You look great girl!!! Congrats!!

My surgery is June 4th.... Absolutely cannot wait to be talking about my one year anniversary! I am so sick of hearing friends and family talk about everyone they know who gained the weight back! Any advice on what to say to those stupid comments?

Why even bother responding. Just follow the program and show them a success story

Just say wow it's really sad for them that they could t make a lifestyle change. Every surgery is individual.

I celebrated my one year on 4-30-13 and I have to say... It's a shock when I see pictures of myself. It used to be a shock before and I deleted every picture I could find... However, lately I feel like I've lost my way. I drink wine, don't watch my carbs (although I'm careful of the ones that really make me feel uncomfortable, ie; rice, Pasta and bread)..I really need some motivation and a workout buddy. Plus this unexpected fact...since I've lost weight I feel like I look at least 10 years older...anyone else experienced this?

Overall, however, I have to say I'm so happy! I weigh 130 fricken pounds!!!!!

Jen you don't look older to me. My surgeon never told me not to ever eat the junk food just in moderation & I have self control and why start with the bad food to become fat again that's how I feel.

      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.
