I made my goal too. Originally, my goal was 180, then I got over-ambitious and changed it to 175. Then I got realistic and changed it back to 180. Well, I'm at 179!!! and I still have a week to go. Who knows, if it's a good week, maybe I will reach my ambitious goal!! Either way, I'm very happy.

Hope everyone else is marching on down the path and reaching all their mini goals along the way.

Another 1/2 pound (since 8/14:cursing:). and I had a horrible weekend so I don't think I'm going to make the last 1.4 pounds - it'll be a stretch because I'm going out of town Wednesday and won't be back until Labor Day. We'll see. Turkey Day - here I come!!!

my official final weight for this challenge was 174-- just 4 lbs shy of my goal, but overall i lost 16lbs this summer, which is great now that i am nearing my overall goal weight! its good to look at the big picture of things. by thanksgiving (right around my 1 year bandiversary!!!) my goal is to be at a "normal" bmi -- so only 10lbs more to lose by then! easy as pie! hopefully... :thumbup:

      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.
