I hope everyone is doing well!

Sorry I have been a bit slack

I have lost 18 kgs and I am at my 12 week mark so I am doing ok.

I am half way there nearly!

Feeling good, should be eating a lot more but just can't stomach more than 3 mouthfuls.

So I am hoping that improves..

Hope everyone is well

Well I am experiencing the week 2/3 stall! No weight gained or lost. I know it's part of the process but still disheartening.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Yes. Stalling has been pretty much the norm for me. Almost 4 mo. out and 47 down but seen to have 1/2 weeks stalls each month. Double down and make sure you're getting all your Water and Protein. Soon your body will catch on and start loosing again. Good luck.

Meant to say we're 1 day apart and 1 pound apart from starting weight. I started at 218 had surgery September 17, 2014 and am now at 147 so I'm down 71 pounds.

I have a question... I was sleeved on September the 15th. I have recently been working out with a trainer for almost two months. We take my measurements weekly. Today we took my measurements on my waist and I went up three inches, but my hips went down an inch. When measuring my waist, he told me that I had the tape in the wrong place, but I didn't Bc it was right across my bellybutton. He said it is lower than where he measures each week and it seemed to be like I was almost to my hip line. So my question is does you bellybutton drop...is this just part of this crazy process and it will all come together at the end? I mean there is such a thing called gravity... Please if anyone has any thoughts or suggestions on my measurements please let me know. I dropped weight this week too... Just confused. Thanks in advance!

I don't think your belly button can move because it's attached to the abdominal wall. Unless you've had a hernia or something. My excess skin kinds sags around it but it hasn't moved yet. Keep up with the exercise and you'll look wonderful. ????

      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. 🤞
