April Surgery update before and after my Sleeve!!



Recommended Posts

I hope everyone is doing well. I am very happy with my result. I am logging food and exercising about 5-6 days a week, a combination of spinning and weight training. My advice is to stick with the program whether the weight loss is fast or slow. The excess weight happened over time, so will the weight loss.

Remember exercise is your friend!!

Surgery date 4/29/19

Starting weight -260

Weight day of surgery -244

Current with -195

Thank you @ms.sss I purchased my swim suit from venus.com in 2016. Their swim wear are of good quality. I have quite a few pieces from them throughout the years and have been quite happy.

Thank you @gabybab Wishing you the best on your journey.

Once I made up my mind I was set. I was tired of losing and gaining weight and my blood pressure was getting out of control. The only problem I am having is trying to wear as many of my favorite clothes before they no longer fit me.

This is a good problem to have Lol.

I hear you about the clothes. Even though I'm still 263, I enjoy wearing clothes so much more now. Looking forward to hopefully getting to where you are👏🎉🤞

Yay for you!

      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. 🤞
