Anyone want to post pre op pictures With me, the pictures where were not hiding behind anyone to make us appear thinner. The kind of pictures we would never post on FB. In 35 days I will have my surgery and never look like this again. So here it goes....post-253075-14314389960674_thumb.jpg

My head looks way to small for my body. ;(

I'll join you. This pic was taken several months preop when I gave Beachbody/Shakeology a try. I had to post it to our closed FB group page and it was hard to swallow then and it is still hard to see it. Here it goes....talk about a head looking tiny. :P

Thank you guys for saying I look good. But I feel the same as everyone else here. Would never put a photo like that on FB. I try to behind people and objects to make my body look smaller.

@@KathyLynn160 I have tried Shakeology and Body by Vi and have not personally not had success with either. I feel hungrier sometimes after I drink a shake. I don't always feel that way with them so I do drink them for Breakfast or lunch when I'm in a rush but I have never lost weight while using them.

      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. 🤞
