4.5 months out from my RNY.... Big Milestone and pics



Recommended Posts

I had my RNY bypass on 08/23/16

Starting weight: 280lbs

Current weight: 199lbs

I am no longer in the 200lb club!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted so badly to hit this goal before we crossed into 2017 but for 2 weeks I sat idle at 205lbs. I couldn't move those numbers to save my life. It was the worst stall thus far because I was so close to crossing that line. Then the stall passed and in a little over a week I dropped 6lbs and crossed that line!

I can't wait to see where this journey takes me!!!

Congrats!! You look amazing! Keep up the great job. I can't wait to cross that line too. Still 44lbs to go, but I'm more determined than ever! I can't remember I time in my adult life (36 now) that I was under 200. Thank you for your inspiration today!!

My first weigh-in was 406.7. In High School I probably weigh 130 wet. In the Air Force I got in trouble for having less than 1% body fat. And was at 190. My RNY was September 6th. My current weight is 261.4 of course I'll never hit my Air Force body again. It sure does feel good to be where I am.

      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.
