Sleeved on 11-29-2016. Starting weight 396. Current weight 281. Total weight loss so far is 115 lb. Use a treadmill 5-6 times a week for 30-45 minutes per session. Lost some hair for the first 4 months, but after taking Biotin and Rogaine twice a day, hair is finally growing back. I can't do spicy, high fat foods or fried stuff anymore and can't tolerate any sashimi (raw fish) either. I still say this was a life-changing decision for me. I'm no longer diabetic and getting healthier daily. Waist size has been reduced by 18 inches. I've also gone from a 6X shirt to a loose 2X. Goal weight will be 200 lb. and should be there by year end. Loving this journey!

Doing well, lots more energy the past few weeks. Able to exercise. Weight the past several weeks is coming off slowly, which I'm fine with. Just glad that I had the surgery and am able to lose weight period.

Always good to see other November sleevers!

Now I'm at 231. I've lost 103 pounds from my highest weight back in September. Now that I've lost 100 pounds, my surgeon said he is able to do my open hernia surgery and I'm very happy about that! 71 more pounds to go!

Hope everyone is doing well :)

Can not see my results except in my clothes; but seeing in pictures really motivates me. I am going to the gym and working out three days a week 1 to 1 1/2 hours each time. Plus walking 3 1/2 miles 6 days a week. Feeling great and having the sleeve surgery was the best thing I ever did. I am 6 months post op.

      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.
