I had my surgery on December 12. I'm almost a month out and doing well. Before surgery weighed 204 having lost 14# before surgery and I now weigh 190#.

So I accidentally bought a medium top from under armor as opposed to the large I thought I was grabbing - I'm a little over one month post op and o tried it on and not only could I get it on but it actually fit- so that inspired me to try on the large hoodie and it fit too- despite the dreaded stall life is amazing.

I agree about carbs... I bought an elliptical and increased my Water intake and I am back to losing as well . I was in quite the lull... it was making me mad but I said I needed to change up as well and I did... but I will say even during that stall inches were still dropping like crazy ????

My nutritionist told me that I would have plateaus where I wouldn't loss weight for few days or weeks that it was normal especially for women.

I am in the same boat. I am trying to eat 700 or 800 calories a day, but I can only manage 500-600. I have been losing and gaining and losing the same pound for a week now

      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. 🤞
