Thank god a surgery like this was available to me! I have had had many ups and with this surgery and still am having some, but I wouldn't change it for the world. It was the best decision I could have made for myself.

I started at 250 pounds with a slipped disk in my back, terrible foot pain, exhausted all the time, very depressed.

I am now 124 pounds with no pain whatsoever and I love being me.

This surgery is exactly the tool I need to keep me on track and help me realize my goals.

I am a 35 year old single mom of two little ones and so glad I got my life back.

health, happiness and appearance have improved soooo much

wonderful transformation pics :rolleyes:

who deserves it more :rolleyes:

"love being me" - can't get much better than that :)

I regret not taking pics the first year showing my body changes

"hint" to newbies to take pics while you are loosing weight

seeing old/new pics are helpful to look at

reminds you where you came from (how could you forget? :(

pics can be a great motivator :rolleyes:

keep up the great job :)

i know you will

keep up the good job :rolleyes:

      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.
