8 months and 118 pounds lost! (W/pic)



Recommended Posts

Yesterday marked my 8 month surgery anniversary and I have gone from 319 pounds on surgery day to 200.6 pounds this morning!

The picture on the left was right around surgery time and on the right was this morning.

It's a lot of hard work but so worth it! I feel like I've been given my life back!

Thank you, I still have about 50 pounds to go but I am proud of my progress and thankful for this gift I've been given.

Wow what a transformation! You look fantastic. You can see on the wall behind how much more door is showing and your elbow is even with the light switch that is quite a significant amount of weight you have lost. Keep going strong and you will get to that goal of 150.

It was so nice to see these pictures as I weighed 314 the day of surgery and my goal is 155. I am just 1 inch taller than you, so to see how I might look at 200 is so nice. Looking forward to looking as great as you do.

      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.
