I take monthly pictures of myself. Here's the latest 10 months out. I can't wait to sit by the pool on our cruise in two weeks. No more hiding behind a cover up and hoping nobody was looking.

Hello everyone, I have only lost 50 pounds so far, but I think there is a difference. Let me know what you think. I took this picture yesterday after trying on a blouse I bought a year ago and it finally fit me. My face looks awful because I have been sick with the flu, just look at the bod... LOL.

By the way, everyone looks awesome.

I didn't really want to post until there was a significant difference, but decided I would be brave...I think there are some subtle differences anyway. You all look truly amazing!! Keep up the great work!!!!!

Here are the pictures that my plastic surgeon took of me before I had my band fitted in Sept 07 and at my final pre-op in Jan 08, the weightloss was about 33lbs. I have just had a FTT and Lipo but I dont know how to get the pictures off my camera! As soon as I get back to the UK I will post some more.

      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.
