It's been 3 months...? Uh oh!



Recommended Posts

So it's been 3 months. I had a sw of 324 and I am down to 245 as of this morning. I have my 3 month follow up tomorrow. Is 59 lbs since surgery a good number?! I am eating ok so I think, I'm walking so much. I am just so nervous. Im seeing the hard work pay off. Im just so worried about what my surgeon will say. I guess I am seeking approval. I know I'm a grown woman, I should deal, but I want my surgeon to say good job! Sigh...

Your doing great!! I worry about surgeons who come down on patients, they of all should know there is no cookie cutter approach to weight loss!

Thanks! I just pulled up and I'm heading in. In my pants 2 sizes smaller and a jacket that is the smallest size I have bought since graduating high school 20 years ago. Here I go!!!

Silly me!! So for starters the assistant called me in and she was asking me all these weird questions. Then she asked who my surgeon was. I told her. Then she said she didn't recognize me. Lol!! So I showed her my driver's license and she started laughing and apologized. Both her and my surgeon were very praising of my weight loss. My surgeon was more concerned about my eating and flipping through my journal. He said I was obviously doing what I was suppose to because the weight was coming off. He said if I continue sticking to my diet, excercising and taking my Vitamins I'll keep seeing results. It was a great visit!

      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. 🤞
