I started going backwards before Christmas. I am 19 months out . I gained 15lbs all because I found it real easy to eat soft things that didn't bother my stomach . Like fudge . A big no no . I am back on track . Now I have lost another 5 lbs and going strong

You better know it, especially if you paid cash out of your own pocket. Long hours, sweat and tears! 5 years out and I won't turn back....size 221/2 to size 10. Still do my walking only problem is when I feel myself and eat sweets or something greasy. I get that sick feeling to throw up. Hang in there, it works.

10 yrs post op..... seriously battling 32 lb regain after a 175 lb weight loss. My advice..... RNY should not be an option except for extreme cases of morbid obesity. It requires 100% commitment 24/7 365 days of the year. If you're not ready to love yourself...... any permanent weight loss program will not fill the void.

I did the 5 day pouch test. It will get you back on track. When I finished, I heard about the 48 hr pouch test. It will help you get back to that right feeling and cleanse your system. Great luck to you.

Thank you I like this sight everyone is so much help and I am committed. I went from 458lbs to 245lbs they back up to 260lbs and now I am at 255lbs I will never go back that way again . It isn't about the money I spent but my health and the great feeling of being able to do things again and walk long distances as in hiking. Going out and sight see I love it. Thank you everyone you are wonderful people

Lol I have a "friend" at work who likes to say she lost her weight the "real way" and "on her own" and I just gently remind her that I'm in the gym 4x a week for 90 minutes and weigh and measure everything - trust me, I have a tool but I'm most definitely doing it on my own. I don't have anyone doing anything for me.

      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. 🤞
