Are you counting your calories? Weighing your food? We often eat more than we think.

I haven't lost any weight in the last month. Now, with that said, I definitely know why. My portions are not large at all; however, I find myself eating ice cream more often than I should. So, I've decided to get rid of the ice cream and see what happens. I did start Zumba classes about 2 weeks ago twice a week. I am going to add the treadmill 3x a week and see what happens in the next 4 weeks. Hang in there. You might need to tweak what you are doing just a little. You will soon see results. Good luck!

I am in the SAME boat as you except that I lost 45 lbs in the first 4 months then NOTHING since January. it's SOOOOOO frustrating because I know that I am eating what I should and working out. Went to my doc last week and he actually said that it looks like I have "LapBand Failure" where the band just isn't working for me. He recommended I consider the sleeve or gastric bypass. I can't decide which one to do.

OH NO...its really frustrating isnt it....I had hoped to be slim and fit in 4 months and look at me...:(

the doctors are not very interested in our problems....we have to work it out ourselves....

ALL THE BEST...

      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.
