I try to only weight myself once a week, on Friday, but I fail. Always! I usually weigh once a day (sometimes more) and only update on Friday >>.

I weigh about every other day...but, I too, am becoming obsessed. I will start today just weighing each Monday and then try and move to once a month.

I weigh my daily but only record it once a week.

I refuse to get discouraged if a gain a pound or 2 in a day because it is usually gone the next.

I weigh myself in the am and in the pm most days. I have learned to understand how my body(weight) reacts to different things. I know that I am usually higher by at least 2lbs at night.

I too weigh myself daily first thing in the morning. For me it reinforces my accountability. If i do not check in with the scale I am not confronting my demons head on. I also only record my weight one day a week. It use to be mondays but i am switching to Thursdays to coincide with my banding day.

I weigh daily....it used to drive me crazy, and when I was heavier I had to stop with the obsession. But now that I am closer to goal, it doesn't bother me if I don't lose weight on a daily basis!!

used to be daily, then i decided once every week, and now i am seriously thinking every 2 weeks, or maybe try everymonth like you......it's really an obsession so it's real hard to not get on the scale.:thumbup:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
