Almost 3 months at goal. I still weigh myself everyday. My weight hasn't been outside of the 195-200 range since making goal in July. The 200 pound mark is a good reminder, if I get too close, I get back on track. Since I've made goal I would say my average weight is 197. I'm wearing those Levis with the 34 on the tag, so I'm happy.

Bill, that is great – keep it up.

I hit my weight goal a few weeks ago (101 lb loss from 285 to 184). I was wearing XXXL Shirts and 44 pants. Now I’m in M shirts and 32-34 pants. My new goal has shifted from weight to Body Fat. The work in the gym is really starting to pay off in that regard. I started out about 3 months ago at 22% and am now under 17%. I feel like I am only a week or two away from my Body Fat goal of 15%. I know that I will need to find another goal at that point because scratching off goals seems to be my major motivating factor. I am thinking about dropping my Body Fat to 13% as a tough goal to shoot for.

      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. 🤞
