Thanks. Now comes the hard part...keeping it off. So easy to fall back into bad habits. Now and then, I have to start actively tracking so I don't backslide. Lucky for me, a lot of what I love, my stomach can no longer handle. Yay?

Hi I have been in this site for awhile now but I had some problems with my Lap Top so I lost a lot of my stuff. I had my RNY July 2, 2013 my highest weight at this time was 249#'s ( I had weighed 285 #'s before but managed to lose 36#'s and kept it off) my Surgery weight was 232 after my Preop diet of Protein drinks for 2 weeks my Current weight is 125#'s. I went below my goal weight at first due to Strictures. But I eventually managed to gain back 8#'s. The only gain I have had!! Which I am real excited about. Any way I would love to chat with you, and If you are interested I can give you my email and we could connect that way. I'm not being strange I'm not weird but I do love to talk about WLS'S this is something I am real Passionate about. So if you want just look me up.

Oh yes BTW you have done excellant with your weight loss. And you are right it is a scary thing when we get to maintance. I have a little more freedom with what I eat and I don't always make the best choices either. LOL But we are human and humans make mistakes Right. The difference now is I don't just throw up my arms and say OH WELL, I pick myself up and KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!

      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.
