Hi all, my surgery date was 4/13/2015, SW 270, CW 206.2. This is a journey as things are different in how we eat as well as what we eat. Good Luck all.

Sleeved April 29th, I am down 55 lbs. since surgery. I do not count any weight loss before my surgery because that was then.... My old life! This is my new ???? I think I'm doing pretty good. I have hit stall #3 ... Ugh! Hope you all are doing well.

I was sleeved 4/6/2015 and have lost 60.9 lbs so far! I had a few "stalls" but thankfully got past them and moved on. I feel SO much better physically. I have a lot more to go but happy with my success so far.

Down 56lbs since the day I was sleeved 4/20/15 as of last Monday.. Don't think I'm losing as fast as I should however I'm not exercising as I should either.

Sleeved 4/13/15. 268lbs at surgery and now 209 lbs. however had lost 28 lbs before surgery. Very slow process. I thought the weight would come off much faster.

Sleeved 4/27/15 weighed in at 255.7, current weight 219.2. Slow loser and happy! (I hope that means I won't need plastics ☺️)

I'm only getting in about 3oz of puréed consistency food, less if regular consistency. Therefore, I drink most of my Protein.

I think slower is better. I had the Lap Band before for almost 8 yrs. i lost 22 lbs per month, but Im now convinced that I was dehydrated. The sleeve uas been slower but I feel like it will stay off. And I am smaller now than I was at this weight previously. And my face is much thinner than it was at this same weight and my skin is tightening up. Honestly....i havent been excersising. I will work on that!

      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. 🤞
