Just finished my 3 month supervised diet, got approved for insurance last week, and finally scheduled for June 27th. It seems like a long time from now, but at least it will give me extra time to lift weights and build up some strength and also go through my food bucket list!


Starting Weight: 329lb 1/19/2017
Surgery Weight: TBD 6/27/2017
Current Weight: 313lb 5/9/2017
VSG, Dr. Jawad, Orlando, FL

I am from the Corpus Christi area. I have a sister-in-law that lives in Irving and a brother-in-law that lives in Plano. I love that area and probably will go up there in the fall for a visit. Hopefully, a lot thinner. : )

*Update*

Only 3 more days until my Sleeve surgery (June 5th)! I am on day 8 of my 10 day liquid diet. I just want to encourage others when you get to your liquid diet phase. The first few days were extremely hard for me, I wasnt just hungry, I believe I was fighting the extreme addictions to food that got me to this point. But by beating those addictions and staying strong on the liquid phase I feel so confident going into surgery! Not to mention I've already lost 19lbs in 8 days! You got this guy's, this is going to do amazing things for all of us!

      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.
