Hey everyone ...

I am so very excited about my NSV that I had to share with those who understand it best !

I used to wear a size 4xl shirt ... now I'm in an XL !

I'm down 6 pant sizes ... and from a 46 to 40 in my bra ! ( oopsy .. sorry guys! )

Had my 3 month check up yesterday ... doc says all is going along according to plan and they are very proud of the progress I've made in such a short time ...

I cannot tell you how over the moon I am !

Anyone else have an amazing NSV to share ?!

That's amazing! Congratulations on all of your victories!

For me, NSVs include clothing sizes going down (from 28 in jeans to 24), more energy, and less medication. Had a doctor's appointment on Tuesday and he's very happy with my progress. My GP gave me a big hug because she was so happy for me and said I seemed so much more positive. I'm starting to look forward to my walks (HUGE victory there!) and I won't skip Water aerobics for anyone! I've got a great counselor who is helping me work through all of my emotions...

Well, that list could go on and on. I really do feel like this was absolutely the right decision for me!

CJ

Congratulations!!!

Random question though about women's clothes sizes. If I go from say a 26 to 20 did I lose 6 sizes or 3??

      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.

      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.
