Gone to bed early (for me) with my laptop and looking at ya'lls post. I lay on my belly usually but turned over on my side cause i had a itch. I felt my ribs a little. That moment made me smile despite my pouch being grouchy! I really enjoy all of you April peeps and so glad we have a place to share our ups and downs during this crazy journey :)...(((Hugs to you all)))

Hey all! Hope everyone is well. Been a crazy week. Threw up twice, both this week, but I guess that isn't that bad since I am 7 weeks out and was doing great. I ha e only lost a total of 31.5 lbs since surgery. My highest weight was 391, and I am at 317 now. All this weight lose happened since February! I can't believe it!!! Finally had to break down and buy a few clothes to get me to the next stage. Oh, and I went for a walk and felt so good that I actually started to jog for almost a mile. That is a major accomplishment for me!! It was 114 degrees when I went though but the whole ability to do it was awesome!

7 weeks post up and I'm down 36 lbs. Feeling much better and definitely more active because I'm not as out of breath as you used to be. I just have to thank all of you because this space gives me such inspiration though I may not respond to everything, I do read it daily and it definitely helps me work through all the changes going on physically and mentally.

      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.
