I'm down another 2.5 this week. I weigh myself on Saturdays only (otherwise I would drive myself insane). I likely won't make my original goal of 20 lbs in this challenge, but I'm so happy with my restriction and steady loss right now that I don't care.

It took 3 months before my band was really working, so now that it is, I am thrilled.

My goal for this week: more time in the gym!

Thanks all for the support and info. You are the best.

I record my weight on Saturdays too. I'm plugging along although I feel a little behind. Updating my ticker today; I am a little. Gonna try to kick up the exercise a little next week and see what happens.

I lost 4 lbs this week!!!!! I think I might make my goal of 16.6 lbs by labor day as I am only 3.2 lbs away from my goal n we have two more weeks to go.

Guh. Definitely not going to succeed at this challenge - GAINED 2 pounds over last week, probably because I overdid it at Friendlys this weekend in a fit of frustration and self-pity. I probably should not have signed up for a challenge prior to getting an actual restrictive fill. :)

I go for another fill on Wednesday, and my doctor is pretty aggressive with them, so hopefully I'll be out of my funk and back on track.

I am so excited to finally be in Onderland as of this morning. I didn't make the July 4th challenge, but I feel pretty confident that I will make the Labor Day challenge. I have 4.5 lbs. to go and I get a fill next Monday. Finally...I was stuck for over 2 weeks, but I have been working by butt off, literally in the gym. Good luck, everybody.:)

      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.
