Just wanted to start a thread for the guys. I am looking forward to seeing how many there are out there. I was sleeved on July 26th 2014. Down 48lbs since July 16th pre-op and 32lbs since surgery date. So far so great!

Glad to hear you are doing well! I lost 42 pounds before surgery on 12/23/13. I am now down a total of 132 pounds and have hit my initial goal weight. I am continuing the program as I feel there is more to loose. It has been an amazing seven months since surgery. Good Luck!

Thanks macman and congrats on the 132!

Stalls are coming for me. I know it. Right now its so new to me I find myself weighing everyday. I probably shouldn't do this because when I stall I may be disappointed a bit.

Good luck with your surgery brother!

Sounds like you're doing great rjumper.

I was sleeved in dec 2013 and down 135 pounds with 4 pounds left to reach my goal. Not sure if I will try to lose a little more as people are calling me boney at this point but my "love handles" are still bigger than I'd like.

Congrats on your success and keep up the good work !

      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. 🤞
