'Tis the season!

For the first time in decades, last Friday night I went to dinner in a beautiful linen sleeveless dress.

I still can't believe I did it.

And no, my arms did not look great. But they didn't look nearly as horrific as a year ago. And I was proud of myself and my arms.

I've also been struggling to embrace my bat wings.

Way to go!

You are leading the way!!

Better to have loose skin on the arms than fat, sausage arms. I am self conscious of my arms but they look better than when they were fat. I'm planning to wear a tank top this summer.

i am too! i am not going to be ashamed of my saggy arms. i know they will never be 100% firm again but i will not be confined to 3/4 sleeves forever!!!!!!!!!!! I need to feel the sun on my saggy skin! LOL!!! And if people don't like it then they best look someplace else that's all i've got to say... :D

@@VSGAnn2014 Hi. I am so proud of you, and happy for you! You've surpassed your goal! Good for you!

One of us--that would be me--well, I've been naughty and hit a Carb binge. Doing well today though. Still want to lose 20 more. Overall, from 271 to 185-190. I want 165-170.

Again, proud of you!

Thank you, Dr-Patient.

:)

I am very happy. And a little nervous. This is an awkward, unusual place for me to be -- at goal. Every other time in my life I've hit my weight goal (I'm a brilliant dieter :)) I've sort of bounced on "bottom" and then floated upward pretty fast.

I don't really think I'm going to do that now. This is a real different feeling place -- no urges yet to eat "bad" things, etc. But it still really does feel ... awkward.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
