Recommended Posts

Yeah !!!!blkgranny.gif

I finally did it 99kilos....UNDER THE 100 kilo mark... icon_razz.gificon_razz.gif

Probably not eating all yesterday due to my aching tooth...( saw the dentist yesterday no cavity but infected tooth on antibiotics next week getting root canal done) well it was worth it to break that barrier..and I am NOT going above it ever again...

The last fill I had hasn`t made any difference it was just .4 bringing my fill to 3.6 I would say they will put .4 in again Friday week and bring me up to 4mls (7mils being the top amount of fill in a 10mil Hage Band...) the doctor said most people find their sweet spot betweem 4 and 5 mils....fingers crossed mine is not far off....

Gotta go off to change my ticker line.... icon_razz.gificon_razz.gif whoo !!!!!

Thanks Karen ... I too miss my computer ..its back yeah ..!!!

Thanks guys ..

Back home and really happy lost 2 kilos in two weeks ..its been 4 months since my banding and I have averaged 5 kilos a month icon_razz.gificon_razz.gif

My clothes are all loose and baggy and its feels GREATtttttttttttttttt...Don`t want to buy too much so wear the baggy stuff most of the time have a few smaller items for outings..

I got a .7 mil fill because I told them I didn`t notice the .4 mil fill last time at all ..I now have 4.3mils and the dietitian assurres me it will SLOW DOWN my eating as thats my problem eating too fast ..(The bands max fill is 7mls)..

I am on soft foods for 24hours so will have a yogurt now (late lunch ) and eggs for dinner..then my normal porridge for breakie ...

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend ....

Marion

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
