Vicky Sue 90 Posted July 21, 2023 Its been a little more than 9 months since I had gastric sleeve surgery and not a day goes by that I am pleased that I made this decision. I'm down 141lbs and feel great. To anyone thinking about if it's worth it, absolutely yes for me! I've got about 40 more lbs to go but I know I'll get there. I'm greatful that I have great support from my bariatric team, family, friends and my exercise girls at the gym... you all make this easier for me. 5 1 2 Pines, Sigh, CarolineLittle and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel the same way and i am only 3 months out! I have lost 50 lbs (no preop diet required). l feel spectacular with the 50lb off and cant wait to see what it feels like to be at or near my goal weight! No regrets here so far!
