I started this journey at 247 -My highest was 250. I had a goal by Feb 1 to be under 200. Had my sleeve done on Oct 19th 2015. Well I didnt make that goal yesterday. but today 2/2/16 it is happening. woot woot. I have not been under 200 since before my youngest was born- he is now 18. I thank God for this surgery. I have a better attitude in general- am happier-doing things that make me happy-making myself a priority. selfish much? ha. Wanted to share with the great people here who are so encouraging and so supportive. Hugs and mushy stuff to all of ya'll.

feeling happy- feeling determined. My doctor has never given me a goal weight. I am still working on figuring that out. what is good for me. I still have more to lose. but it is happening.We can do this!!! Dont let a stall mess with your head. It will happen. Keep doing what you need to do. skipping off to work...ok not really but walking with a pep in my step.

I'm 1.7 pounds away from 199.9! Great job on your success!! I'm hoping to be at that mark myself (tomorrow, maybe? Please God!). It's a huge milestone, and you're such an inspiration to me!!

      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.
