Now OFFICIALLY Overweight! Yippee!



Recommended Posts

I have just crept into that no-man's land of being "overweight"! Two bonuses within one week....broke into the 160's AND BMI dropped to "Overweight"!!! Actually went to Chicos this weekend and tried on some really nice pants. Their sizes are 0,1,2,3 (go figure). I grabbed a "2" and it was too big. The "1" was just fine! I also went into Lane Bryant and tried on some pants. Founds some GREAT black dressy pants in 14-16....but they were a little loose! Asked if they maybe had some 12's......sheesh....practically got run out of the store on a rail! HAHAHAHA! Want to make a stab at getting to 165 by Thanksgiving. I think I can do it since my 3 week plateau just "broke". When I got up this morning I "felt thin" and sure enough, I was down almost 2 pounds! YESSSSSSSSSS!:whoo:

Congrats Kacee! That is fantastic. Your stats are fantastic. I hope I am as successful as you. I will be banded by Dr. Spivak 11/20. I am very excited and nervous.

You are an inspiration. Keep it up!

Kacee - Congratulations on leaving the 170's behind! I can't wait to kick the 170's to the curbside and join you in the 160's! I am hoping, No, I know it will happen this month!

Again, Congratulations, you have done remarkable since your surgery date and you should be very proud of 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.
