Baby girl, every physician group who performs gastric bypass should show everyone who comes in this video!! I'm so proud of you and thank God for your willingness to share with us!
you look amazing! i have my gastric sleeve surgery on September 4th,2024 and my emotions are all over the place. i am currently in day 3 of 16 of my pre op high protein diet and i gotta say its going ok. Thank you for sharing this journey as it really helps me get a better understanding of pretty much everything within the requirements of preparing mentally and physically. Again, thank you, this video gives me the motivation i really needed to keep going.I cant wait to see myself a year from now :)
This is amazing. I had the sleeve in July I am down 110 pounds 285 to 175. It’s amazing 🤩. Congratulations on your wonderful Weightloss. Thanks for showing your journey.
This might be the video I send to family and stuff so they understand why I’m doing this. Even though I’m having the sleeve. Because it’s the only one I’ve found with clips of the WHOLE process in one video. Thanks for making this.
This is such a great video. I've been watching you since the beginning and you have come so far and been an inspiration to me. When I was planning on going to Mexico for my surgery you where one of the first people who I seen that had a good experience in mexico and helped my final decision because my insurance here in the states kept denying me surgery at 372lbs I felt like I was dieing. I had gastric bypass on October 4th 2021 and I have almost lost 100lbs since pre op in August. I have so much more to go but seeing your struggles and success helps me make it through the process when sometimes I feel so alone. Thank you so much! It's always a joy to see your videos pop up my notifications! Your amazing! Keep up the good work
Thank you so much for your kind words and your support, it really does mean so much to me! Congrats on your weight loss success, that's amazing and so much hard work, you're doing amazing!
Wowwwwww girl that’s amazing ♥️🌹💃 I tell you what 🤔 I have watched other people’s videos but this one was it🌹 You took me month by month on your transformation and it is real. I lived your story and journey with you and I saw you and I felt you. Amazing. I am approved by my insurance for a revision from sleeve to bypass set for August 16, 2023 and I see already my success story in you. Thank you for sharing your experience with us and I look forward to seeing more of your journey. Keep it up and coming ♥️🌹🙏💃
The most amazing part for me is as your body got smaller, your smile got bigger. I hope you feel as good as you look. Your success is beyond an inspiration.
Great video! Been following you since my RNY surgery a year ago today! 256 at surgery date..today 156! Surpassed my 165 lbs goal. You're an inspiration 💕
1/19 post hits home! I also gained 80 during the pandemic. I had WLS 8/21/23. I feel un accomplished till i get down past my gain and down to the lowest I've was after a dedicated keto diet in 2016. I have lost 96 pounds and have 14 to go till I reach new land. Congratulations on your accomplishments!
Stephanie. I just want to tell you first off, congratulations on having come so far! I found you over the summertime I think, when I was doing my own bariatric journey research, and I just really liked your content and editing and all the things that make a channel watchable. I also watch on my TV which doesn't allow for leaving comments, but I needed to tell you how proud I am for you and to thank you for being a really great motivator for me to believe that I can make these same small changes and be successful. So I ended up having a sleeve almost 2 weeks ago, after losing 60lbs on my own last year. Thank you for helping to make me believe in myself enough to go through this process. One day at a time, like you. Happy surgiversary and all of my best for your ongoing journey.
Thank you so much for your kind words, they really mean so much. And congratulations on your own surgery process and weight loss success! Like you said, one day at a time. We've got this!
By far the best weightloss video. Amazing just makes me want to get the surgery faster hopefully soon I can start my journey! You look amazing and your energy I can feel and I’m here for it.
I just started my journey with my first consult last week. I cannot wait to have the surgery which will be about 5 months out. I want my life back and I want to enjoy the rest of my life (I'm 66) so I don't have anymore time to waste. Thank you for the inspirational and factual videos. You are a true inspiration.
Stephanie, congratulations on your wellness journey! To say you’re an inspiration would be an understatement. Your light is so bright! I’m in awe of your generosity and transparency. And your ability to put into words what many of us aren’t able to. Thank you!! I wish you all the happiness that your heart and hands can hold!! Have you considered a writing a book? You’re a dynamic storyteller- Cheers!
That was great! On your video part from June and July, you mentioned the NSV's which is exactly what I just went thru. I went to a water park resort and chose to take the stairs everywhere. Why get on the elevator if I am able to handle the stairs without an issue? The 14 yr old girls (it was my nieces Birthday) I went with were complaining half way thru the day how much pain they were in. my only complaint was I was freezing. 3 days of solid steps and stairs and I feltgreat!!! You're still killing it. I still praying you can grow your channel. There are far too few RNY channels on youtube
Thank you so much! I've been trying to focus on the NSVs so much, especially as things slow down as I get further from surgery. Focusing on the positives that I'm getting in my life mean so much more than the number. Thank you for your support! 🥰
Congrats! Such a great video. I am currently in a rutt. My employer insurance is like, the one insurance that excludes bariatric surgery from coverage. I can't afford to go to Mexico, I also take care of both of my grandparents full time. So desperately trying to figure this out! 😔 Starting the process just to be denied was very...depressing.
I am so proud of you!! You are nothing short of AMAZING. I have been in awe of you since I found your channel in early 2021. You’re the reason I found out about MBC & for that, I am so thankful for you. (I was bypassed there 7/2021)Thank you for sharing your journey. Thank you for your knowledge. Thank you for your vulnerability. Thank you for your honesty. Forever girl crushing on you from Indiana ❤️
Thank you! It's funny, I didn't feel particularly miserable before the weight loss in a lot of ways, but I sure feel and look happier since. Perspective is interesting!
Hi you look great. I’m so happy you are feeling more like yourself. I am going to have the gastric bypass surgery. I live in Canada and it’s a little bit of a waiting game and lots of tests . But I watch your Chanel all the time it helps me so much. And you got this ! Because you are right it’s about health not the number on a scale.😀
I've heard it can be quite a process in Canada, congrats on getting things started! Thank you so much for your kind words and support, it means so much to me. Trying to focus every day on the positives and the benefits I'm getting and not just the number - it can be hard but it's so worth it.
This is a very good video! I will come back and watch more later because it’s 3 AM 😂Pretty soon I am going to be having my surgery and I just happen to have found your channel looking forward to seeing more!
Beautiful video. You are so amazing, and positive and accomplished and encouraging and, and, and!! Thank you for your channel. Thank you for your recommendation to go to Mexico for affordable surgery. Just one question - does your hair loss ever stop? I am almost 7 months post op and the hair loss is REAL! LovefromFL 💕
Thank you so much, you're too kind! As for the hair loss, mine personally has slowed way down. I think I'm still losing a little but it definitely isn't as much as it was before.
My surgery was a little over $7,000. It varies from person to person based on the doctor, the procedure, and your BMI for example. I would go to their website (mexicobariatriccenter.com/) and click on "Take the first step" and it will get you in contact with the right people.

How has you appetite changed,? Did you have Plastic surgery on your arms, legs or any part of your body?
Get it girl!!! :)
Thank you! I'm trying to get it good! 😝
How much was it in mexico?
How much did it cost for your surgery, how can iget in contact with the people you used
My surgery was a little over $7,000. It varies from person to person based on the doctor, the procedure, and your BMI for example. I would go to their website (mexicobariatriccenter.com/) and click on "Take the first step" and it will get you in contact with the right people.
What is the Doctor's Name that did your surgery
I try to put pertinent information in my description. My surgeon was Dr. Christian Rodriguez Lopez.
I dont understand how your insurance wasnt covering it.
It's not covered under a lot of insurance providers in the United States.
Yeah I have a really common/major insurance and it doesn’t cover it. It’s false that a lot of insurances do unfortunately.
Background music is too loud I can't hear what you're saying..
I'm sorry 🫤
"i just dont have it in me to worry about it anymore" --- that entire clip just hit me!! I totally understand that feeling. Ive been fighting this fight my whole life! I am tired. So proud of you for having this realization, and sharing it with us. 🩷🤍🩶
