Where are you now?



Recommended Posts

August 16 will be my year surgery anniversary and I am down 80 pounds. I started at 263 now 183. I have hit a few stalls and I am in one now, but I have learned the Sleeve is a tool and you must do as your Dr has told you to keep in maintenance. I feel really good, blood work is normal, no more high sugar levels. Overall, no regrets in having the surgery:)

I am 10.5 months post-op. I have lost 209 pounds so far. That puts me 4 pounds from a normal BMI and 8 pounds from goal. This journey is the best thing I have ever done for my health and well-being!

I am 104lbs down from highest weight. Which was 230ish. (16 stone 10lbs down to 9 stone 3lbs) goal is about 5lbs away and my op was December 17th 2016. Very pleased with progress - do have some skin but waiting to see if I want it fixed - though I miss having a bum and tits!

I'm a 1 1/2 yrs out. Have had many difficulties and lil support from my surgeon. I have lost about 25 lbs and nothing else. I play a huge part in this I know but also thought I wouldve had more support especially since I wasnt doing so good at loosing. I felt that I had surgery and oh well on to the next. ... I need to find something to do with my time when Im not rehearsing for choir.. I'm single so support from a personal perspective is very lil and at times I wish I never had the surgery.... Well trying to get back on track and become successful instead of a failure.Im open to suggestion and I hope I'm posting this in the right place.. Verynhappy for all of you and keep the good work up!

      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.
