I miss all the old pics, heh, anyone have more to add? What do/did you use on your scars? I've been using Neosporin's Scar Solution. Mikey hasn't been using it on his (typical male). I think I can see a difference between ours... though time will tell, of course.

OMG I can't believe I didn't see how dirty the mirror was before I took this pic. :P :brick: :nono:

Here's the layout, and below are close-ups.

1. Actual size about 1/4". (That's just a small mole next to the incision, not something from the surgery).

2. Actual size about 3/4".

My port is under the band-aid. Here's a close-up. You can see the fresh needle prick from today, and to the right and a little up the one from 3 weeks ago. It's the spot that looks like a discolored/bruised pore.

      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. 🤞
