August Sleevers-How are you doing??



Recommended Posts

I love reading about everyone's success and its great to have a place to vent our struggles with those who understand.

What I find interesting is how different everyone's diet/meal plan restrictions are.

My Dr was pretty easy going and a 7 weeks I could eat anything I wanted, I've had no problems with salad, raw veggies or meat.

its interesting to read that other have been told to wait months before having steak, veggies etc.

Follow your plan and the weight will come off. Keep up the great work team August!

Well, I weighed in this morning and so far, I've lost another 0,8 kg. Yesterday, though, I went down to Denver to see a friend and before I left, she gave me a ziploc bag full of Cookies and a ziploc bag full of candy. Naturally, those things went into the trash once I got home.

Alright guys! Stats time! Put your surgery date, weight loss and starting weight up here for motivation.

My surgery was 8/23, I started at 335 and I'm down to 303! 32 pounds gone forever. emoji1430.png let me hear your stories!

My surgery was 8/21.

Original weight was 299. Surgery weight was 257. I'm down to 229 now so a total of 70 pounds lost. Getting rid of my biggest clothing because I won't need them again! I still have clothes of many sizes so I'm delaying buying more as long as I can. I'm very glad I did this.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
