HW: 330

SW: 275

Cw: 215

Lost almost 20 inches from my waist! I am so excited to share that on my 100th day since surgery, I am almost in One-derland! To celebrate..and for a much needed stress reliever, my family and I have a 5 week long cross country camping and hiking trip planned in 17 days!! I'm so excited that I get to participate! I had honestly thought that I would never bee able to be this active again. But I'm running....yes running...a mile and half everyday, going strength training 30 minutes a day, and swimming laps for an hour. I feel amazing. The effects of my osteoarthritis have almost completely gone away! The amount if energy I have now is incredible. I feel like I'm living in a dream...but please, nobody pinch me [emoji4]

I am so happy I found your post. We all try to find out future self on these forums just so we know there is hope and we can anticipate real change. Our weights for high and surgery are almost exact (even though I still have a week and a half before I actually can say that lol) so I can only hope that my cw at 100 days out is similar.

I am having surgery on May 26th. My HW was 328 and my current presurgery weight is 280. In praying to get down another few pounds before surgery next Friday.

Thanks for posting !!!

I'm happy that my post could give you some encouragement. Our stats are very close and I do hope that you have the same amazing feeling and results that I am having. It is like night and day for me. I went from a depressed, exhausted, unmotivated person yo an energized, excited, self co rodent woman in four short months...and those feelings grow stronger everyday. My cravings have started coming back but I must say that no food ever made me feel as good as I do now. I wish you the best of luck!!

      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.
