WOW - You looked gorgeous at 275! You look amazing now. I am curious how your journey went and what plastic surgery you have had. (I checked your profile and there wasn't much info). Thanks

Thank you very much!! My journey so far has been great. I have had ups and downs, but nothing too bad. I had to have my gall bladder removed a year after my sleeve, but I hear that is common. As far as my plastics, I had a TT w Lipo and a breast lift w implant. I am a little over two months now and I am sooooo happy. I finally have my life back. I hope your journey is a good one =)

Thank you! I am 9 months post up and nearing 100# loss. I am currently 5'4 142 lbs (about sz 9). I feel so good.
I definitely would LOVE a TT and would benefit from it in many ways, but I might be one of those people who can get away with the weight loss and 1.5-2yrs post op, not need a TT (crossing fingers). I could NEVER afford that.

As for my breasts - well I had augmentation 14 years ago when I was thin - then after years of yo-yo gaining/losing, and this final time of major losing, my boobs have looked GREAT. Unfortunately I was in an accident and had 1 implant rupture (silicone) - I will be having it removed/replaced in the next week or so. Because of this, I was browsing this forum tonight.

You look awesome!

Hey ooffa511 you look fantastic!

How much weight was in the skin? Was it a noticeable decrease before and after the plastic surgery? I'm considering a nip, tuck and lift however the surgeon has told me to wait another year.

      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.
