I had surgery May 14th and I have lost 41 pounds and quite a few inches. I have had a couple of stalls but it eventually kicks back in. Are you tracking your food? Drinking enough fluids? Slow and steady! Hang in there

I'm struggling! Surgery June 24 and I've lost 20 pounds total! I'm following my doctor's plan exactly. Getting in 48-54 ounces of Fluid and 60 Protein. Walking over 7000 steps each day. So frustrating. I think I might be in starvation mode and my metabolism is shut down. If no loss tomorrow calling center. Hang in there :)

36 lbs is progress and major weight loss ... I was sleeved May 15 and have lost 41 lbs. is it as fast as I wish it was? No, because I'd like to wake up at goal tomorrow :) keep yourself in reality with your weight loss and you'll be happier!

I am glad I'm not alone. I was sleeved may 12th but have only lost 35 lbs! It's killing me that this is taking so long but I have to remember would I rather drop weight fast and loose muscle mass or slowly loose weight and gain muscle at the same time. Are you ladies working out ?

36 pounds IS losing. That's almost 20 lbs/month! Would you have been able to do that before surgery? Relax and try to enjoy the journey to the new you. Follow all the instructions and you will get there. Celebrate every pound that is gone, you deserve to treat yourself as a success!

      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. 🤞
