Hi everyone!! I just want to say I am so inspired by everyone's before and after's!!!! I am 11 weeks post surgery and down as of today 39 lbs. I figured I would post some pictures from Halloween 2008 - 2009. I am actually pretty disappointed I thought there would be more of a difference but oh well, got to stay motivated.

and what better way then posting pictures you dont like on the internet!

Ok, I am about a year post-op. I'm down about 65 pounds. I was hoping for at least 100 by this point. I guess I will just have to be patient. Here are some before and afters. I'm the one on the right in both pictures.

218 280 (yep that is all me! You hae to look close to see how WIDE I am)

Hello all, it has been a really long time since I’ve posted in here. I just found a relic (I’d like to call it) of me at my very heaviest. And just recently I’ve re-entered the losing game, so I’ve been feeling pretty darn good.

All the best!

I was banded Oct 2007. I had a lot of trouble with fills got sick a lot for a year, finally in Dec of 08 i had my band drained and have not went back since. I lost 20 lbs and maintained the loss until 2 months ago. I've gained it back, almost back to my starting weight again. :sad: here are my after the band pics, but still considered before pics since i have not lost any weight....

      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.
