I'm following this because I'm 5' 2.5" -- that half inch is important to me and my final weight management visit is on July 6. HW 271.5 CW 256.8 - so I'm down about 15 pounds since May 11 when I had my first visit with my team. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I'm done with all my testing - had my endoscopy yesterday.

Yes ma'am we can be sleeve buddies! Keep me posted

How long did it take to lose? Like a month to month?

I'm 5'3 and my surgery was Dec 9, 2015

I've lost 84lbs in 8 months so far. I hope to reach goal by end of September since it's slowed to about 6-8 lbs a month now for me. I'm not complaining though.

I was averaging 13-15lbs a month at first. I stopped working out consistently like in May and that's when the weight-loss slowed down but it didn't stop or anything, I am still making sure I get my Protein first and my fluids in. Also I should note that I never worked out super hard, just walked a couple of miles 4-5 days a week or swam a few laps in the pool. I had some stalls but never worried too much about them cuz people on here prepare you for that lol

      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.
