Recommended Posts

Its approaching 1 year post op, how are you guys doing???

I need some input because after my 6 months everything slowed down.....I've slacked off tremendously, no exercise, no Protein shakes, no Vitamins, no healthy eating, no nothing ive been in a bliss for 5 months, even tho I haven't gained any weight, I haven't loss any either.

So as of September 1st I started from scratch, 3 days of liquid diet 3 days of pureed foods and started back going to the gym and focused on my Protein Shakes instead of grazing all day, so far 10 days out I've lost 3 pounds...its a start in the right direction. My overall goal is to be a healthy 150 I'll even be happy at 160...I'm currently 182.5 so I know I can do this! I just want to know have any of you made your goal weight as we are 1 year post op!?

It's the same with me. Lost about 65 lbs so far which I'm thrilled with but just been stuck for about the last three months. Noticed about that 6 month mark I started feeling a little more hungry also. Getting busy again this month tho with the exercise and focusing on that Protein and Water so hopefully like you I'll see that 150 mark :) we got this!

Hi all, i had my revision band to sleeve surgery 13th oct 2014. I have lost 150lbs (yes a whole person) as of last week however i have a fair way to go. I am happy with what i have achieved to date. I walk almost 14 klm (8.7 miles) a day 5 days a week! I wont ever be able to run as i developed OA on both knees prior to wls surgery. Im alive, and enjoying life ????. When i get a bit more confidence ill post before and after pictures.

I had my surgery out 29th 2014 I started out at 241 and I'm not 185. After about 6 months the weight loss was much slower and I've been stuck at plateaus. I'll go down 3lbs then up 3lbs etc.. My goal is 150 but I'm worried that now I'm almost a year out my goal seems impossible... Everyone tells me how good I look but I'm not seeing it. I feel like my stomach hasn't changed the only change I have noticed is my butt and boobs are smaller those 2 areas I didn't really care if I lost it's more so my stomach, arms, and thighs. Arms seem to be the hardest and I hate that they are flabby. I'm not going to be doing any plastics so I'm trying to find ways to tone up these specific areas.

      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.
