7 MONTHS & 150LBS!!! amazing***



Recommended Posts

Well I hope everyone is surviving with this virus issue?

Here in Australia things are going ok just the issue of supermarkets being raided and hard to get toilet paper before everyone buys it all... But no quarantine or anything yet...

Umm I don't go online as much because I'm happy and doing things my way... Fired my useless dietitian months ago...

I started this diet journey 7 months ago pretty much to the day and I've hit 150LBS lost I cannot even fathom it.

I never ever thought I would even get this far or this low but this bypass just seems to keep working for me.

I started my journey at high weight of 322lbs and today I weighed in at 172lbs first thing this morning 😁

Some might say I've lost more than enough but I feel I'm going well just taking each day at a time..

Still experimenting with different foods I can tolerate but taking it slowly and doing it my own way.

Some days I'll still feel like a shake or two.

Some days I'll be real hungry other days no hunger at all...

I've been doing it my way not worrying about specific stages or phases really.

So yeah 150lbs gone and I feel amazing. I feel like a new man and I'm like where did all the fat go?

It feels great people calling me skinny and I weigh less than most of my mates now hahahaha

I know I'll eventually need to start weights and stuff but I'm in no hurry yet.

Love Mikey xo

Mikey, that’s amazing!!! So inspiring for me to hear just shy of 3 weeks post op. Congratulations on changing your body and your life! 150 is my goal weight. I’m down to 218 now so I have quite a bit to go but so excited for you! My starting weight was 256.6.
There’s no TP to be found here in the states either so we’ve got that going for us as well. 😂

      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.
