  1. Today I actually looked small to myself! This is the lowest weight of my adult life... I cant even imagine being smaller. Only 20 lbs to goal 1 then re evaluate from there.

      I remember that day myself, walking around outside waiting on wife at doctor and turned corner and saw myself in mirrored office window. Stopped me in my tracks cause i think that was the first time i really saw i was not the same size.

      That must have felt amazing! Congrats! I certainly haven't felt "small" yet, but I did start seeing myself as more "normal" looking last week. I felt like I'd crossed the threshold of people seeing me and not immediately thinking "Wow, she's huge!"

    slightly disappointed

    Keto style diet drops weight quickly before surgery But balance is best long term
  3. Starting a SHTF thread It's all fun and games until ... You see your RD & NUT in the same room and they tell you you HAVE to weigh yourself weekly.

    Rant/FOMO

    You are going to have that post surgery glow baby, all the toxins out of your system you are going to look like a new person promise no one will be able to keep their eyes off of you in a good way , food will not be the focus , so live it up and happy pre surgery and pre birthday !!!!

    Highest weight

    Thanks everyone You guys are so helpful and honest I really appreciate it I now know that I REALLY need to decide on my lowest weight so I can bounce up comfortably , I like contingency planning How does someone find out what their lowest possible weight can be (I saw something about bone density and such) ? BMI chart just does not seem super accurate ... Like most one size fits all things HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

    I hear it works but will depend on many factors How far out you are from surgery, if you actually have more weight to lose vs skin, etc HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

    When people feel they have gone off plan they restart it by going through all the steps Some from the preop diet through the post op diet phases some only through the post op diet phases as directed initially by their surgical team HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

    So are you shooting for 120 in hopes of bouncing up to 145 or 145 in hopes of bouncing up to 160? HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

    This is going to shock you...

    I'm right there with you, I only ever know because my practitioners weigh me to adjust medication (And I tried twice at Walmart but it was wrong anyway lol) HW 270 SW 238 CW 176 VSG 11/7
