Thank you, but no, I have not had any skin removed yet. I will though...I have a very large, hanging apron.

I will look into getting plastic surgery early next year. I still want to lose at least 20 more pounds.

Good for you for reaching your goal weight!! I can't wait to have that feeling...I still haven't decided what I want my goal weight to be...originally it was 180lbs, but now that I weigh under that, I think I want to get to 160lbs.

So crazy to even get this far!!

We should all be so proud of ourselves!!

I know this sounds cliche, but it's true...if I can do it, you can too. The last time I weighed in the 100's was when I was around 17, and I'm 40 now! I honestly never believed my body was even capable of weighing this again!

I can't wait for your post when you get here too!!

Ivejust got my surgery date, sept 7th and im so excited. I was always 145lbs because i was a flight attendant for 18yrs. Once i had back surgery, and they started with rhe steriods, i ballooned up to 288lbs and couldnt get it off alone. My goal weight isnt to be that small again, but i would like to be in a 8-10 again. Currently i weigh 288lbs.

      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. 🤞
