Week 9 post op....



Recommended Posts

I'm only two weeks out and disappointed in the scale. But trying on clothes in my closet...that is what made me say "wow"!

Just keep working the program. Good luck to both of us.

I feel the same... 8 wks only 16 lbs lost! 😣... I feel like I should have just stayed on the weight loss plan I was doing before surgery.. Better results.. No force feeding myself Water every 15 min! Ugh!... Well hope I feel different in a while 😋

From your mouth to my body! I hope it picks up!

I was supposed to have the RNY Bypass... But I'm thinking they played me and just stuck some holes in my abdomen! 😕

I feel the same way. If I didn't have the five scars I wouldn't think anything was done. I'm now 5 weeks out and at 21 pounds.

I lost quickly the first few weeks and now it's a pound or two a week. It differs for everyone and the less you have to lose, the slower your weight loss will be. Surgery for me was 1/17/17 and I've lost a total of 34 pounds...that is since the beginning of pre-op diet on 1/7/17.

You have to watch what you eat and drink nothing sugary or no carbs. No drinking thru a straw either. I had ryn bypass laproscopically on may 9th 2016 and I have lost 104 lbs already. It depends on u and your team

      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.
