4 Mths Po Update



Recommended Posts

Monday marked 4 months since having my sleeve done. I started my sleeve journey @ 321 LBS & today I weighed myself & I am now down a total of 61 LBS!!! I am so estatic at the progress I have had since beginning my life changing journey & I am so excited to see what the future holds for me. This ride has definitely been a rollercoaster ride but it has all been worth it to see & feel the difference in my body, soul, spirit, my confidence.... it is just an amazing journey to be on even with all the ups & downs we may have emotionally, mentally, physically.... I am so proud of myself for being brave enough to have a surgery that scared the crap out of me but I just knew in my heart it was what I needed to have done to become a much happier, healthier me. I am a diabetic, I have neuropathy, high cholesterol, I was on Water pills, pain meds for severe back pain. I am 33 years old & my body felt like I was 85 or 90. I feel a lot better these past 4 months & it gets better everyday!!!! Here are some pictures of my progress...

Congratulations on your success. And for having the courage to document your journey with photos. I don't have that kind of courage and avoid cameras. Good luck on the rest of your journey.

As far as having the courage to document with the photos trust me I hate the camera seeing anything other then my face still but I wanted to make sure I had memories of my entire journey to always remember where I had been & my journey to a healthier me. I thank god every day for this awesome tool to help me!!!

      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.
