I don't remember. I will tell you this. I'm at 5 1/2 months and I've lost 100. I kept thinking in the beginning that this wasn't going to work for me, I was going to fail at another weight loss attempt, I'm going to be fat forever, my body hates me, I hate my body blah blah blah. I stressed and worried and asked people if they thought I was losing enough....we're all different and I don't think any of us will ever feel we're losing enough or as much as others and so on.

BUT: I've lost 100 pds. I couldn't do that on my own. I've done it in less than 6 months and chances are, you probably will too. Or at least comparable to that. I've been watching all my April post op buds and we're all pretty much about the same *give or take a few*

So, I guess them rambling post was just a "don't worry about it. You and your body are going to be fine and if you've lost any...it's working". :) Hope that helps

Thank you guys I've lost about 37 lbs so far but I've been stuck at one weight for 3 weeks literally goes down a lb. then back up so I'm worried because I'm not having problems eating anything ... I have huge limitation of course but as long as I chew well I'm able to eat...

      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.
