I am down 42lbs! Just had my labs done and they look great as well. I just need to start adding excercise into the mix, feeling a bit weak.

Including the 10 day pre-op, I am down 57 pounds, 45 of that is since surgery. I sleeved on 2/2/2015. I had bloodwork for my 4/30/2015 and my numbers look great. Next visit is this Friday 6/26/2015.

I started as size 20/22 depending on the item and am down to size 16.

I need to get back to the gym. Vacation and business travel got me out of the habit. Although we did bike a couple of times and kayak on vacation.

I was sleeved on February 16. I started at 298 and this morning I weighed 208. The total since pre-op diet is 92 pounds! I feel great, am walking 10,000 steps and swimming laps in the pool. My clothing sizes dropped from a 26/28 and I just bought a pair of shorts in size 18.

Well, I have not lost as quickly. But, I have started running and can now run 4 miles three days a week and 2 miles the other days. Pound wise, 30 lbs. my surgery was 9 February 15. I have been stalled since 17 April. And, have actually, gained a couple of pounds. However, I am trying to be in encouraged. Great job everyone.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
