It gets easier! Try some clothes on or take your measurements, it may help you see your success differently. I know that after losing 20 lbs I felt better, had more energy and slept better. The more you lose the easier it gets!

I know that feeling. With pre op diet and surgery I'm down 30 (16 pre op) and then I try something on that didn't fit right a watch a ring something. I also stop and laugh last time I lost this much weight it took 6-7 months!

Oh, I understand what you feel. My top weight before even going for my first appointment was 255 lbs. Then by the time I had my first appointment I weighed 247. The day of my surgury (12-8-14, I weighed in at 238. As of today I weighed 229.5. It has been one month Ann. But, I'm hungry and a lot of nausea. And I can't hardly tolerate Protein Shakes. Thinking about it I want to vomit. I'm having a hard time not eatting food I shouldn't be eatting. I also feel I should be loosing faster, but I restarted my gym membership and I've got to start using it.....

Hang in there it's only been 9 days for you and you lost pretty good, already.

21 lbs in 9 days??? That issn enormous amount of weight. I'm guessing that losing that much weight puts a lot of stress on your emotional well being. Please hang in there! Rest!

      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. 🤞
