before & during/after pictures



Recommended Posts

I was looking at the group just for pictures but I wanted to see pictures of people my own age so I thought I would start a thread! My pictures are still before/during because I did just have surgery! :thumbup:

You're doing great! Congrats. I love the idea of a thread for our age range- good idea. I lost my camera with my specifically taken "before pics", so I don't have any proper ones but I'll see what I can find.

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. The picture of me looking crazy, jumping of the boat, is the best before picture I have. I avoided full body shots you see. Then the other two are about 10kgs lighter- half way to goal. Lets hope some other teenagers put some pics up!

katie! ive seen your before and after pics before, but never together like this.... you are incredible!!! congrats on the tummy tuck.... i mean, i man, i hope i don't need one, but im lying to myself because i can already tell that i do. and i act all tough but that surgery truly scares the crap out of me.

p.s. i will totally excuse your vag, thanks for being brave enough to flash all of us complete strangers and be a guinea pig for us, because we really are curious to see how someone our age goes through everything. you are -- seriously -- awesome, but i'm sure you know that.

congrats again!

This Tummy Tuck is completely kicking my ass. I always thought I had a high threshold for pain, & I thought i was tough but shiiiiiit sometimes I think I'm dying. I already know that this is all more than worth it, though. I really did need something done with my tummy, but I didn't want to go all out with arms & thighs. Those people are inspirational. Either way, I'll post my before and after tummy tuck pictures once I get them from my doctor & take some new pictures.

Don't let the pain scare you, Jane. If you think you need it & can afford it... DO IT!

Buuut, I think it may be time for more pain meds haha.

      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.
