Recommended Posts

I am so proud of my wife. Today was weigh day and she has lost 49lbs in 6 months since surgery. I have lost 53lbs. In the last 3 years we have lost 253lbs. My wife is only 13lbs from her goal, but I have a long ways to go. This is a picture we took sunday.

Thanks for the pictures. You both have done fantastic. Both my Dh and myself are currently to be banded May 24th and June 10th. I am hoping we can be a real support tag team for one another. Do you have any words of wisdom for us. I can think of a lot of positive aspects. Did you run across any negative aspects going through it together? Thank you in advance.

I can not think of but 1 negtive of doing it together. We have 3 children. So coming home after surgery was tough having to go right back to work and taking care of the family.

If we had it to do over we would do it the same way. It has been so great working on it together. Our progess has been so different I needed a fill as soon as I could get one. Debbie waited over 3 months. I now have had 2 with 2.8 cc Deb only has 1 cc . We are all different, but having support this close is great.

      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. 🤞
