The smallest number I've seen so far is in 204 territory. I suspect it will be a few more weeks before I dip under 200 but the prize is in sight! :biggrin:

I made it! Even though I am at the beginning of my journey, this was a mini goal for me and I was very happy to get here!

Ok, I have watched this thread since I was banded, looking forward to the day that I could join in. Well, I have been hesitant to post, but here I am. I am currently at 215. I know I still have a little way to go, but it seems pretty close to me. A lot closer than 255 was!! So here I am, on my journey to onederland!!

I need 8 pound off to be under 200 and 17 to be "overweight" instead of obese. It is so clo but feels so far. I am suffering right now because I got a fill Friday and I am wayyyy to tight. I am going back for a slight unfill today. Good luck eveyone.

      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.
