Damaris67 got a reaction from Mama V in from size 18 jeans to 10 in 2 months 1 week!
To those wondering "will this happen to me" ...
Yes. I was anxious and scare before surgery. Today I tried on size 10 jeans. I won't stop until size 5 jeans fit me. That is how I look hot.
I know, I know...shallow and superficial...but let me enjoy my moment. Let me associate the word "hot" next to my name. I need this.

Damaris67 got a reaction from JerseyGirl68 in Anxious? nervous? doubts? sadness? waiting for surgery
One year ago I was a nervous wreck. I made the desicion. I had to go through 6 months of medically supervised diet before my insurance would approve my surgery. It seemed sooooo far away. I had so many fears... I did not believe it would happen. May 23rd 2013 is the day Dr Pleatman changed my life.
guess what???
TODAY I REACHED MY PERSONAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL OF 150 LBS!!!
FIVE MONTHS, 1 WEEK AFTER SURGERY!
It is possible. Time passes so fast, like a blur... and I am beautiful, healthy, and HAPPY!
DONT GIVE UP! DON'T DOUBT! take one day at a time!
Love to all, Damaris

Congratulations you look great! Over the past month I've been getting some great info here and after seeing your post I feel it's time to jump in! I'm feeling everything you described. Emotions all over the place, nervous, doubts, sadness, and excited to start this new journey! So many of you have been a wonderful inspiration!
My surgery date is Nov. 8th

Damaris67 got a reaction from Miss_T in My own surgeon did not recognize me!
It's been 5 months after surgery. My own surgeon looked at me standing in the waiting room, STARED, blinked, tried to focus, scratched his head... then heard me laugh and a lightbulb went on!
I look amazing, feel amazing, and still don't drink 64 ounces of Water per day! ha ha!
My primary doctor did every possible laboratory: I'm healthier than ever! My skin is clear, my blood pressure is perfect, my sleep apnea is gone, all the pain and misery is GONE.
WENT FROM SIZE 16 JEANS TO SIZE 5! I look 30 years old!
My teen girls are proud of me... I never dreamed this could happen... but it happened! I can eat everything I want, just a few bites and I'm good. I'm very lucky that I don't have skin hanging all over, just a pouch of fat still in my lower abdomen.
My ideal weight is 129 lbs, that is 23 lbs away... I don't think I want to be that skinny because I'm 45. Hope to stop at 145, size 3 jeans so I can steal my daughter's clothes!!! ha ha

Really? You can eat what you want? My doctors have been so strict on what I can eat that I've been thinking of backing out on this.

Damaris67 got a reaction from MumtazG38 in I call "drinking 64 oz water" BS
Yes I said it. Shoot me. I don't drink all that Water. I drink fluids when I remember. When I'm thristy. Just like before vsg.
Guess what? I'm doing amazing. I've lost 45 lbs since May 23.
I eat solids, 60 to 80 gr Protein per day.
Vitamins and supplements galore.
Have anyone read about Water poisoning? Google it. I've seen people getting sick from it.
I will drink when I'm thristy. My body has its own alarm system. I won't push water down just because that is the general consensus.
There, I said it.

Go ahead...eat the bacon...you will vomit and your mind will associate bacon with pain and vomiting. You will never crave bacon again.

Damaris67 reacted to Butterthebean in Thanking the lord for this amazing change!
No disrespect intended with my previous comment or now....but the phrase "if you don't like something...move on" is basically saying "keep your differing opinion to yourself." We can all disagree politely and tactfully, and anyone can get as spiritual as they want to be....but I just don't like people trying to silence the opposing voices, that's my only complaint.

Damaris67 reacted to Canary Diamond in Thanking the lord for this amazing change!
I suggest this topic be move to the "Religious Sleevers" group. It's clearly more about faith than surgery, since you're attributing your weight loss to a higher power rather than yourself or the SURGEON WHO PERFORMED THE WEIGHT LOSS PROCEDURE.
