@Rich Mack-phenomenal change. If that's a honymoon period of weight loss vision, I'm booking my post surgery to go there. What a true sincere reshaping your body is giving you- oh I hope my surgery body will do that too. Know it isn't just the surgery but work on your part also, but wow wow wow!👍😜

Thanks for the encouragement. I definitely have my bad HANGRY days but for the most part, the surgery has taken about 95% of my appetite away.

I know in some respects I have it easier than some, because I was only obese, not morbidly. However I promise this one thing is true no matter which category you're in. You will get out of it way more than it asks to be put in since the tool of Gastric Bypass is really doing the majority of the heavy lifting. All it asks of me in return is a little walking each day, the occasional bike ride and I park out in the boondocks when I visit Walmart forcing me to walk a little extra distance. The real change will take place in a couple months once I'm allowed into the gym. I used to be quite ripped, and hope to be able to get a small portion of that ripeness back. Best of luck on your journey I have confidence that you will see great progress yourself.

      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.
