I can't believe I missed this thread. My surgery date was May 1 too. I started at 294.6 and today I'm 241.6...down 53! The journey has mostly been amazing. I feel so in control now - and happy to make such good choices! No more asking for a dealt belt extender when I travel or fear of getting on a ride in the amusement park and the seatbelt won't work. It's now about mindful eating and making sure I don't graze. Let's keep each other supported and motivated. Best decision I have ever made!

I started at 223. Down to 170. Has anyone started to experience Hair loss? I am seeing a lot more hair shed and I already have thin hair? Scary! I get 100 g of Protein a day and take Biotin.< /p>

Today is our anniversary! I wanted to see how everyone is doing! Personally, I stalled and am back to basics now. I am happy with results thus far (60lbs) but these last 15 are being more than stubborn!!

      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. 🤞
