Lost 40 pounds in two weeks



Recommended Posts



Spanx and girdles are God sent lol yes lose skin comes with it.. But do I care? Hell no I'm smaller.. I'd rather be smaller with lose skin then as fat and unhappy as I was.. Don't let skin stop you or worry you .. That can be removed if you choose to..

Hi Chynadoll! Thanks so much, my recovery has been slow motion only because my threshold for pain is a 0 lol therefore I knew i wouldn't be bouncing back quickly like some others can. I am still really sore on my left side an have been experiencing awful nausea almost daily but it's nothing I had not prepared for already. I am 20 days post op and finally on full liquids stage but not many of the creme Soups, thinned oatmeal or grits agrees with my stomach so I have been sticking with chicken noodle broth or watered down tomatoes Soup and it is such a struggle to get the required 32oz milk an 64 oz liquid. I am doing good to get a 2 cups down but I am trying to force as much as I can down to avoid dehydration. As it stands today my stats are: HW 257, 9/27 SW 241, CW 224. I have gotten alot of tips from the forums so this site has been really helpful. Thanks so much for checking on me on my road to recovery..I am a work in progress with absolutely no regrets despite the pain I still feel an see the progress to come so I am excited if whats to come. Keep up the fantastic work and i look forward to reading everyone's updates an journeys. That keeps me motivated on my journey!

      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.
