Congrats everyone. Keep it up. I'm a 12/2016 sleever. Was a 22 & 2x/3x. I can wear a 16 now. But I too am still working on the mental adjustment. Everyone comments on how my face looks so different but I don't see it in my body. I'm glad at the progress but my mind hasn't caught up with the body and the number (pounds lost) . Weird. Lol. Will give it time.

I started at a 24/26 and I am currently at a 14/16 I'm very happy that I see the change in clothes size but I have a problem and still see a 300 lbs girl when I look in the mirror I have not adjusted to the way I look yet.SMH

What type of diet/food plan did you use after surgery to help with weight loss?

I was size 24 at 256 pounds. Had bypass two years ago 4/2/14.

Now I am size 4 at 138 pounds. Best money I ever spent on myself!

I'm almost 1 year out of surgery and I went from a 26 to a small (top) and 8 (pants and dresses).

I'm still hoping to lose about 20 lbs and go down to a 4 size for pants and dresses.

The picture attached was taken this past February at 173 lbs and 9 months out of surgery. I went back to Texas for a vacation and posed in the exact same spot I posed for a picture at my highest weight (345 lbs) years ago.

      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.
