6 months pics of the Junies (June 07 Bandsters)



Recommended Posts

Thanks guys! To the next 50#!! Bigbaby, I'm still frustrated about my restriction, but at least I have some. Not what I want, but I don't want the overfill either. Today was my fill day (semi locally) but I'm skipping it. I get some restriction with dry meats, like the smoked salmon I tried yesterday.

I can see a difference too in my pics but my body still feels big and chubby. I think it's from stalling so long. When I lose 10# I feel thinner immediately and sooooo good!

Bigbaby, I put my photos in photobucket.com and resized them to the message board size. I don't know if that's what makes them come out they way they did or not. They were just regular pics taken with my Kodak digital.

Good point! Your arms rest on your sides now. Also, your body 'lumps' change shape as you lose as they re-distribute and eliminate. I know mine have.

The best thing is Suzzie, you are in proportion and losing weight evenly all over which probably means no PS. The end result is going to be amazing if 382 to 305 is 6 months is anything to go by.

Here are my 6 month pics. I should have stuck with taking the picture in the kitchen as usual. In this picture I look as big as our Christmas tree.

      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. 🤞
