I'm 5'6.5"

The smallest I've ever been was size 10....and that was maaaaany years ago. The largest was size 24. I kept telling myself "please let me get to a size 8...please let me get to a size 8".

I just bought size 6 jeans!!!!

I cannot tell you how unbelievable that is. I never even considered a 6 to be a possibility. Me in a pair of size 6 skinny jeans and leather boots just about makes me want to faint....I am so damn hot!! haha

Good Luck to you!

I had lapband in 2008 was 305 went down to 170 in 9 months. Kept it off for 6 years then my band eroded in oct of 2013. I was revised to bypass in May 2014 but had to gain weight to meet the criteria to have the bypass. Day of surgery I was 245 on May 21, 2014. I am at 189 now still have 19 left to get back to my optimal weight but it's coming off ????

I am 5'8". Was sleeved on May 1,2013. Was 310 to start. Have been my goal weight of 175 since January 2014. Give or take 5 lbs. was easy to loose and keeping off has been not that hard. Keep up the good work. I did so well I am on my surgeons web site as a patient success story. If you go to slimlifesolutions.com and go to pt testimonies you can see me I am 3rd one down with cynthia e.

      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. 🤞
