@@wholenewjessica Be committed to the process, don't stress stalls (they're natural) or the stress might make you sabotage yourself with food. Watch the scale but try not to obsess.

Hit your Protein and Water goals. Keep your carbs down, beware 'slider' foods. Ignore sugar. Don't graze. Treat yourself, but stop at that one treat. Stay active. Track everything. Trust what your sleeve says :)

You're going to do great. Congratulations on your soon to be new sleeve!!

@@LaurieQue No regrets :) well, maybe one. I didn't track I think it was month 5, and let calories creep in without realizing it. I feel like I wasted that month, it was the only month without any loss at all. I was eating between 1000-1200 calories when I was supposed to be at 800! Once I got that back under control, I had a huge drop again and kept going.

MyFitnessPal is a great resource, use it!

I was at a stall since I was eating 1200 calories. Once i made modifications and dropped to 800 I am seeing results again. I am thankful for my sleeve.

What did you do to lose the weight , I mean which exercises. I'm trying to get rid of my arms and legs. I've lost 50lbs since my sleeve on 11- 21- 16. I need some advice.

At this point, I wasn't really exercising. Right now I'm doing martial arts (Krav Maga) 3x week and cross fit 1-2x week. Really love it.

      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. 🤞
