Haven't posted in a few days, too much going on, went to beach one last time before kids started school on Monday, but I bought my first set of clothes @ 48-50 instead of 60-62, in down to 296lbs, started at 388 in January and was at 246lbs on June 10th surgery date, that -92lbs so far, and I started doing core exercises at the gym yesterday, I've had 2 minor stalls and I don't even care, and I think I really am addicted to this new healthy life, I don't eat crap anymore, nor do I have tolerance for it, I will try to stay ahead of schedule but I am looking at my goal weight of 198lbs by February 2016, I hope everyone of my buddies on here are doing well, I wouldn't have been able to get this far without this forum, I miss my Elode, and Babbs, two of my inspirations, see you all soon since I am planning to buy clothes soon and doing a before and after finally........

My wife took a pic of me on my chair at the Beach, and when I ran across an old photo of me 2 years ago on a fishing trip with my nurses from work I became very emotional, and since my wife sees me everyday she said she was in awe, I'm at 92 lbs less than 388lbs in the photopost-254362-14406306009918_thumb.jpg post-254362-14406306153784_thumb.jpg

      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. 🤞
