First...congratulations!!!!

Second...Whose Goal? Reason I bring it up, is that I have had, met, and surpassed goals....

I asked my Dr. numerous times what happens when I reach MY Goal....

He explained to me that this is not a diet that I can turn on/off, decide to go back, etc...it is a permanent lifestyle change...with a new permanent way of eating....therefore, as long as I stay within that lifestyle, my body will continue to loose and then Stop when it reaches what it considers to be where it should be....

And that is exactly what has happened...I have not gained, nor lost weight in 2 years....and I continue living this new life along with it's new habits...I cannot go backwards, gain weight again, etc, unless the band should change...get Fluid taken out for example....

Again, congratulations....

Thank you all so much for your kind comments it means so much to me. No I am not offended at all by your comment 2muchfun if it wasn't for you and CG and Missy I would have never got this far, I still have my struggles, but it is all worth it. B-52 my goal was 60kgs and a normal BMI I agree this for life, so I hope I do stabilize naturally, but one thing for sure if you listen to the band over eating is not a possibility. Thank you all once again for all the support.

"One thing for sure if you listen to the band over eating is not a possibility."

AMEN to that!!! Music to my ears....early on, from veterans that were here and long gone...that was their mantra..."Learn to listen to your band"

My Dr. would say that to me all the time also....

      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.
