Just started the challenge today, and I am pumped. I did go to the gym today and had a great workout on the eliptical and put effort on arms and abs today. One step at a time.

Thanks for this challenge, I so needed to get back on track!

Viv checking in this MLK day. I so glad for this day off. :) I weighed in and I'm still at 219.6...what the crap? Uggh I am thinking that it's the lack of Protein, I haven't been keeping up with my protein so I think I will try to do better this week. But it's better to maintain then to gain. I'm half way to my goal and my dr said this could happen.:/

I am definitely down for the squats and crunches. :) Congrats on your weight loss. WTG!!!

Take care peeps! Hope this week is better then the last.

Hey everyone - checking in! This morning I weighed in at 197 which is 4.6 pounds lighter than last week! Late last week I was at 196, but I'm trying not to dwell on it because a 4.6 pound loss is still really good (thats why I shouldn't weigh everyday...if I never knew I was at 196 earlier in the week, I would be 100% satisfied with being at 197). Anyways, my name on the spreadsheet is 'isaviolinist' and this week I'm at 197. :)

Hi this is Aimee

My weight this morning is 176.5. I know that seems like a lot in just a couple of days, but it's because I wasn't eating much. I had an unfill today because of it.

Thanks so much.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • 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
