Before/After pics week 6 post-op..Difference??



Recommended Posts

Needing your input for motivation please. Can a difference be seen yet? I truly am having a difficult time seeing a difference in myself & am wearing the same elastic yoga pants still. (I guess since we see ourselves every day in the mirror it might be tougher to spot the changes..?) I’ve read that this can be normal though. I see it clearly in others pics, but not mine & I think that’s so strange! So I’m really curious...is there a difference this early to anyone else? Does it show yet or too early..? I’m a stay at home mama for now so not getting out as much as in earlier years to be around many peeps, just my hubby who thankfully appears to notice some differences already.

Anyway for needed motivation, going out on a limb & posting a side by side at 6 weeks post-op & minus 32 lbs..Here goes!!😬 I wanna we yours tooo!!!!!!! Pleeeeze!!!!??😃👏🏼👏🏼

Your face is much changed even after only six weeks! Look how much bigger your eyes look while smiling in your second picture, how much thinner your cheeks are, even up by your forehead is thinner.

Way to go!

      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.
