Boy am I glad I stopped by today. I had problems with my band and it was removed after 7 months. That was 3 months ago. These photos sure steer me toward getting the band back if the Doctor feels it is feasible. Thanks for the inspiration.

Okay -- not sure how this will turn out. I'm more intimidated by trying to upload pictures than I was climbing up on the operating table! :wink2: These shots with my GrandDoll, Sloane, show a change.

Anyhow, the one in pink is on my birthday a month before surgery. The other was in May of this year with like 80 lbs gone.

Okay, 2 things:

-- No, I'm not bald, I just have a FIVE-head instead of a forehead. (That's it, I'm abandoning the slicked-back chignon!!!)

And

-- is it just me or was that 90 lbs all on my BACK??

Nana, are you kidding me? The difference is awesome! You look great and so much younger. Sloane is a cutie pie too. Keep up the good work.

Why thank you, you're so sweet!

This morning my husband and I stopped into Whataburger for our Saturday morning Breakfast -- I eat two bites of the egg out of a taquito and I'm good until lunch. :smile:

Anyhow, he got up to refill his iced tea and when he was walking back to the table he got this really big, goofy grin on his face. I said, "what?" He said, "Just looking at you sometimes I'm blown away by how different you look."

It was a relief, cause lots of times he says, "I can't believe how much you look like your mother!"

And that's when the fight starts....:biggrin:

Not really -- just kidding! I do look like her and I fought it hard for years, but I've surrendered! LOL

      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
