Hey Everyone,

Down 60 pounds and more than 30 inches off my bod.

Woohoo!!!! I have a waist!!! Only 94 lbs more to go...... By Christmas, I will be halfway through my journey!!!! My goal is to lose at least another 17 pounds before Christmas. Might just fit in those little airline seats on my way to NY this year.....

I love my band!!!

Chris: I am going to Mahopac to stay with my sister, but I will be going to Manhattan for some shows and shopping

Alex: I never thought I would be able to lose so much in a short time. I am convinced it is the exercise and the copious amounts of Water. Also, food does not have the same significance to me it once did. I love food, but sometimes I don't think about it for hours. Today, my first meal other than my morning coffee was at 2:30 pm. I had some scrambled eggs with ham and cheese to get some Protein.< /p>

Bright: I am glad that you have reappeared! I was missing you!! Isn't your surgery at the end of this week? How are you doing?

WOW :D Your weight loss is amazing! I remember how it felt to lose that much weight (but that was before my band, back when I was taking those over the counter diet pills, and of course when I stopped taking them...I pretty much gained it all back!). It must feel good to lose that much weight the right way...with propper diet and excercise, knowing that you've made a positive life change. I can't wait to lose my weight again, but doing it right this time :cool: Congratulations! You really have inspired me.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
