Recommended Posts

Thank you guys so much! The other nice thing is those shoes were too tight for me but now they fit perfectly. I've had them for years and couldn't bring myself to give the. Away coz they're so cute!

I think I'm finally starting to believe that I might hit goal some day. I'm obviously a slow learner <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

I think u r inspiring! You look gorgeous!! Great results - great hubby - I'm positive you will make goal :)

You know before surgery I'd look at other people's pics and wonder if I would ever get there. I was sure I'd fail. I STILL worry about that. Every morning I think, maybe today is the day I'll stop losing weight. I do stall/pause a lot, but it's unbelievable. It's like nothing we've all ever done before to lose weight.

You'll be here before you know it and if you're like me, you will have such a thankful heart. Hope is a wonderful thing my friend.

Start putting your face on your pictures because your confidence needs to catch up with your progress. Remember how inspiring others peoples pics are? YOU are the inspiration and motivation for many of us . Keep up the great job!

Did my husband pay you to say this?? He was so mad at me that I cut my head off. My son said where's you head?? And I told him I chopped it off. How else did he think I'd lost 40 lbs? :)

You're right. I know you're right. I will work on it. all I see is my double chin and my uneven skin tone and my thinning hair.

Confidence is 90% in our faces! I agree with the other poster, don't chop off your head! Be proud of your accomplishments and flash the beautiful smile along with the happiness of being in that dress!! I'm sure you looked beautiful and nobody would if noticed anything you are worried they would see. ;)

How did I miss this?!? Now I get the title of your thread about NOT chopping off your head! :face palm: Looking great! Cute shoes, too. Want my address? Your husband is welcome to shop for me, too. :)

Don't encourage him! He's replaced cooking with shopping I think. I'm patiently waiting for the addiction to die. In the meantime, mysterious packages of things we don't need keep arriving at the house.

      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.
