My surgery weight was 216 too !!! I am 163 right now, April 9 is my 1 year anniversary. I would like to get down to 150 where I am comfortable at which is a size 8-10 for me. I'm 5'4 1/2". Only 13 more lbs. to go.

We all have them... last summer I stalled in August, Sept, Oct. and started losing again in Nove. I did not gain but I just simply stalled. I did change up my exercise , I started jogging instead of walking and work out 1 hr. instead of 45 minutes. That got me out of my stall.

It cold just be Water retention, if you are doing exactly what your suregon instructed you to do then you will lose. I have seen sooooo many people say they have stalled then after a week will drop 8-9-10 lbs. You will be fine ... and begin to lose again.. we all do - I promise :)

What happens if you keep losig weight beyond your goal. Does the Dr have you do something to slow the weight loss down?

You slowly increase your caloric intake until you find the right balance and stop losing.

Also I was informed your body will stop on its own as well.....

      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.
