I lost 100lbs. in four months. I still can't believe it. I have 45lbs to go until I reach my goal weight. This has truly saved my life! Here's and update on some of the things that have happened over the last few months.
Hi pal great job you look great I had my vsg in August 2019 I’m 10 months in and I’m down 145lb my life has restarted all my health issues have gone I’m down from a 5xl clothing size to a large not a lot of loose skin as I work out and do yoga people can’t believe it’s me also my wife fancy me again bit more spice in the bedroom stay safe your mate in the uk 🇬🇧
Hello pal thank you for your cometh the truth facts is I have been in delusion for 40 years it’s taking my grandchildren to. To make me realise what a silly sod I’ve been ,,finally life started.
@@ChelleBear7 good morning Chelle thank you for for your response it’s been 3 years hence I made my vsg and I’m down 180lb and I feel amazing all I can say is after your your surgery healers start to excuse stretching and tone so your skin tightening as you will lose the weight especially on your stomach thighs and bottom love and respect you do it 🇬🇧
@@ChelleBear7 good morning sweetie after your surgery give it a month to heal then start to exercise stretch and tone twisting and turning so as you lose weight you tighten the skin you can never tighten it all but at least 70% can be done and leg raises for the stomach and crutches are a must good luck and god bless you 🇬🇧👍
I'm getting my procedure done on Tuesday. A few hours away and I am getting scared. Watching your videos has kind of lifted me up and made me stronger.
Congratulations on your amazing weight loss! I am also happy with my weightt loss journey and hearing from people like you make me feek better about my decision!
Bro - Shed a couple tears when you started talking about your son. It's one of the driving motivators for me to change my life around. I want to build that kind of relationship with him like you are with your children. I'm always tired, can play for 5-10 minutes, etc. and hearing your progress is so enlightening. Thank you for your putting your personal life out there for people with the same struggles. I appreciate you man.
Great update!! I just found your videos and subscribed. Your honesty and humbleness are admirable. I have my surgery for VSG scheduled for 6/1/21. I’m going to TJ Mexico. Have 150lbs to lose to reach my “ideal weight”. Thank you for sharing some of the issues you have experienced and solutions to help prevent them. You are truly an inspiration. Congratulations on your accomplishments so far and I wish you many more.
Wow!! You look awesome!! I just started this journey and my last appointment is in March 2021 so hopefully I will have my surgery in March! Thank You so much for your updates, I enjoy watching your progress and I love all the information!! Keep up the great work 😊
Wow you look great!!!!! Thank you for sharing your journey!! I like the fact that u get right to the point. I am scheduled to have my surgery on 9/15/22 and I am so excited!!
Wow! Congratulations! You have exceeded your expectations and more. Really proud of you. I know your wife and children are really happy for you. I am going through some test before my surgery. I want to lose major weight and you are encouraging so many people. I am looking forward to this weight loss journey. I have lost 28 pounds on my own and I was told I will lose even more during my pre-op. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Prob the best, most honest videos I’ve watched. I’m researching this at the moment as I am desperate to change my lifestyle. You look & sound great. Very inspirational. Would love to hear how you are doing now.
Hey, I'm watching your videos I just had my surgery the day before yesterday. I came home yesterday afternoon. I did my first walk today. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your journey. I'm feeling all kinds of weird ways right now
Hope you are doing well almost 3 years post op! I am scheduled for surgery in 2 weeks. Very excited and nervous. I’d love to see another video of your experience after VSG.
So inspiring. I’m just starting the process to schedule my gastric sleeve surgery. I’m hoping for similar results as I desperately need a push in the right direction for sustainable change.
Even more inspirational than your 1-week post op, which I just watched: excellent! I'm up for VSG August 10, 2020. You covered a lot of interesting ground, just the kind of thing I'll look forward to as-well. "mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually" better. Amen, brother. Can't wait, m'self. Giving up clothes will be painful...like you I have some gorgeous jerseys (Majestic, MLB in my case) that will need to go; they're sell-able but it will hurt. Details like that do have to pale in the larger picture of this process, though. Thanks for comments about kidney stones and infections, I'll keep on top of my fluids and etc. as you're not the first person to mention either of these problems. When ready, please post more comments btw: want to see you hit that goal, bra!
Just watched your 1 week post op. Glad you’re doing well and look great! Congrats! I have also have acl mcl surgery on both knees and they hurt everyday….this gives me hope for my upcoming surgery benefits!
In a few months I will be having my surgery and I’m watching people journey and I’m looking forward to my weight loss journey thank you so much for sharing please keep sharing
Scheduled for 23 Sept and glad I found your vlog. 59yo and never been inside a hospital, so I have "some" anxiety. Your progress is amazing, and I hope to have something similar. My goal is a 125 lb loss.
Thanks so much for posting these vids. I know others have said the same thing, but it's really nice to hear the journey from a guys perspective. I have my VSG surgery next month, May 22nd. I'm 56, 6'3, 374. Sometimes I feel like I've waited too long, but I am sure this is the right decision for me. The turning point was being put on Statin medication for high cholesterol 4 months ago. The label actually says "take 1 pill daily to reduce the chance of heart attack or stroke". That was really the turning point for me. Please keep posting these videos. Your inspiration is immeasurable!!
christopher4644 thanks for your kind words. I suffered a heart attack and that’s what really made my decision easy. You can do this. It’s never to late. It’s hard in the beginning but gets better everyday. Best decision I’ve ever made. God bless!
Thank you for the video! I'm meeting the surgeon today, and trying to find young men on RU-vid in the same kind of mindset. All the power to all of the women going through it, but their videos sometimes aren't for me. Hope all is well in the year since this video!
Thank you for documenting this journey!! Would you feel comfortable giving an update? I am at the pre-surgery phase. I am concerned about “buyer’s remorse” I want to be able to get past that after I have my surgery.
Hey bro I will be doing the VSG procedure hopefully in 5-6 months. Congrats on all the weight lose! If possible could we got another update. Thank you.
Watched your videos and learned some good tips. Was wondering on one of your videos what meds you were required to take prior to surgery that you didnt take that got you delayed? I am scheduled in Tijuana 8/30 for cash pay VSG, so not as many requirements.
I’m having the G/S on October 11th 2022 I’m so excited but yet scared I want to loss 100 lbs also. Congratulations 🎉 to you and your kid’s need you keep up the good work! I’m afraid of getting a blood clot and be dead I’m 66 do you have some encouragement for me?
I'm going in for my surgery 22nd Nov. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm a father myself, so I relate to a lot of what you're saying. I'm looking forward to being more active with my kids, and can't wait to just generally being more comfortable getting around day to day. Your transformation is inspiring
FYI! The guy's name is Tony Bogaczyk. He is fine. He even lost more weight than 100lbs, you can look him up. He is a filmmaker. I think he stopped with the videos because he might be busy with his work projects, but don't worry, he is good!
Whats up bro, I just got my surgery on November 2nd and im down aboutn 15 lbs which is so crazy..But i feel great and so far im walking about 30 min per day and sticking to the diet.I also come from a big ass italian family and everyday theres a 3 coarse meal but im in my room hiding sipping on broth..Its all good though cause once this weight comes off im gonna run like the wing..lol..
I was sleeved 13 March 2020. Today is day 7. Tomorrow, my goal is to walk 15 minutes. If I'm feeling good, it'll be 30 minutes. I'm lucky that I live in the suburbs and can walk and not have to worry about social distancing, given COVID-19. I'm also making vlogs of my journey too. I've subscribed as your video was really helpful. Keep up the great work.
Education with Eleanor That’s great Eleanor! Just remember it’s a journey. Be patient and don’t push to hard in the beginning. I was so weak I fell on one of my walks. Stay safe and healthy!
@@youbetterbsleeveit5755 ok thank you. Tomorrow is my first walk. I was a bit naughty just now and tried some solids. Referring it big time. I'm going to have to take some paracetamol to address the pain and discomfort. Clearly I'm not ready for solids yet!
Education with Eleanor Just be patient and follow your program. These early phases will be behind before you know it even though it feels like an eternity.
How are you doing? I am just shy of 2 years post op and have lost 112 pounds hitting my goal weigh just after my 1 year mark. I love sharing my journey! My hope is that if I can help support just one person in their journey then my story has served it's purpose.
It's been almost two years since your last video. Just wondering how you're doing. I'm researching the surgery for myself and would like to hear where you're at years after surgery.
Hey I'd love to see another update if you can please. How are you going? Did you keep the weight off so far? I am scheduled to have the surgery in 2 months got to lose 20kgs first. Wish me luck mate! Cheers from Brisbane Australia
Hi I’m 5’6 and 263 and I’m going to my sleeve surgery this November but I’m so scared, I’ll take any advice you have.. thank you! And looking great 🙌🏻👏🏼
MomlifeD16- Love I had my surgery done June 15 2020 ,,, please take the pre op diet very serious, you will get used to protein shakes also your liver will get smaller which will make surgery much much easier for surgeon. U might have phase of regrets like 2 weeks after surgery but it will pass trust me, we all slevers went trough this but it will pass. Trust me its really worth it,, I’m already down 56 pounds,, wish u all the best
Hello, I pray you are doing well. I went in today for my first consultation appointment for bariatric Sleeve surgery. I'm a 56 year old lady.. I am very nervous about all of this. But due to many health issues I need to do this. Right now my BMI IS 36 Almost 37. I still need to loose about 90 pounds to get to my target weight. Can you please do an update. As to how you are doing now. 2 Years post op.
DId you get surgery? How are you doing? I am just shy of 2 years post op and have lost 112 pounds hitting my goal weigh just after my 1 year mark. I love sharing my journey! My hope is that if I can help support just one person in their journey then my story has served it's purpose.
Yes! Be patient and stick to the program. Do what they tell you to do. It's hard in the beginning but it all passes and it's worth it. Best of luck! You got this!!!
