You have come so far...why are the 15 lbs killing you....what did you have to lose in the first place....This is not a race hun. This is your life. Enjoy the ride and be proud of all you have accomplished and keep your goal in front of you but not the controlling factor in your life.

As long as you are on the program..It will happen. Maybe not today but maybe tomorrow.....meanwhile look yourself straight in the eye and tell your brain how far you have come.......

@RJ'S/beginning - 100% agree! the weight we lost was killing us... LOL!! i just came out of such a long stall... and just lost 6lbs - i was shocked - because i have only been losing 1/2 pound here & there - then nothing for some time...

If you are doing what your Dr & Nut have planned out for you, it will happen... maybe not as fast as you want - but it will. Good Luck & enjoy the new you!!

Yes! This is so true, and some days so hard to understand. I have somewhere between 15-20 pounds to go and I have committed myself to slow and steady. I was just not prepared for how SLOW that would feel. I know that the weight loss happens differently for everyone, and some people seem to reach their goals in a heartbeat. But I have to give myself a pep talk almost daily about how different my life is from last summer…especially when I can't see the difference myself.

See this comparing speed of weight loss is not healthy at all. I mean there are going to be a lot of individual things going on why do that to yourself so tell me once you reach your goal are you going to approach this differently and make this a conditional process. The last I checked this is supposed to be a permanent life style change. Meaning we have the rest of our lives to continue. So tell me why are people rushing this.

People are different. I think it's pretty natural to compare yourself to others going through the same thing. Not sure why you have to be judgmental when people are feeling frustrated. Everyone is entitled to their feelings and I think it's pretty normal to feel impatient after undergoing surgery and dramatically changing your life.

      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. 🤞
