    Your video made me cry. I am beginning my journey to gastric bypass and have been watching a lot of videos to prepare myself. But there aren't that many that started from as high a weight as you and me. It is so painful just to stand and walking is an out-of-breath nightmare. When you said how much weight you've lost and seeing the joy in your face, I was so happy for you I started crying. You look amazing and healthy and you're glowing! I'm so inspired seeing you video....6k??? That's so amazing and I love how it was because you took a few wrong turns 😅 thank you for this video!

    I teared up watching this!!! Congratulations on your incredible transformation! You look and sound amazing! I had VSG 5.5 months ago and I'm down 70 lbs today. I can't believe how much FUN my life is now. I still have a little way to go but I do things now I wouldn't even have let myself imagine.

      @Desiree Payne I never got air bubbles but I did get hiccups. I don't get them any more frequently, now at 22 months post-op, than I did before surgery (I've always gotten hiccups periodically throughout life, but probably not more than the average person). Also, when I do get them now, they're not more painful than normal hiccups. EVERYTHING and I mean everything about surgery that is negative went away in time. At 22 months post-op I have nothing negative to report. I'm 133 lbs (5'7", size 0/2), and I still have significant restriction, but I feel amazing. I've never missed a vitamin, which I think helps.

    I found your videos a week ago and watched all of them in a few days. I'm starting my journey with my first visit to Inova Fairfax on Thursday to meet my doctor and hoping with everything inside of me that my insurance accepts me. I've learned so much and have taken notes. I can't believe how much you've changed! And how your personality has gotten so exciting and joyous. I want that! Keep it up, you're doing AWESOME!

    How do I start? What steps do I need to do? I’ve weighed myself today. And I’m not only the heaviest I ever been but I am also the saddest. I’m ready to get my body, mind, soul & HAPPINESS back. I’m tired of telling myself I’m happy no matter how big I am.

    • @moontribe4380
      @moontribe4380 Před 2 lety

      I'm not sure where you're from but I'm in America. How I started mine was I told my primary doctor I'm struggling to lose weight and when I try changing my habits nothing moves or changes. My primary doctor got me a referral for a wellness center and I went to that appointment the doctor asked me if I wanted medicine or weightloss surgery. Since I was diagnosed with non alcoholic fatty liver disease and I have sleep apnea I got approved faster plus my bmi is 42. I hope this helps.

    I'm in my early 40's and need this because I've struggled with my weight my entire life and my body is hurting.I could feel mild pain and discomfort from my joints,nerves,back disc and knees taking a toll on my 340 lbs life and I'm 42 years old. I know it's just gonna get worse going into my 50's. I need to get a good portion of this weight off me somehow.
