Excuse me...but isn't this a support board. You have every right to talk about how you have succeeded. SCREW THEM if they have a problem with it.

Yeah! What she said. Mary you took the words write out of my typing hands. It is hard to lose 10lbs and 50lbs is great.So many of us have been in the background because of our weight. To lose that amount and be proud and say I did it is GREAT!! Diane you ARE NOT boasting. In the words of my 89 year old granddaddy "it is a po' frog that don't praise his own pond". Can I get an AMEN!!!

:peace:

Woohoo!! Celebrate success! Unless youre running around singing "Neener, neener, neener.. I've lost more weight than yo-ou" then should feel free to sing out about your victory! It's a hell of a battle and everyone who experiences even the slightest victory should be excited and eager to share with all of us so we can gain (or regain) hope for ourselves!

50 pounds is definately something to be proud about and anyone that would complain about you posting it should just skip the thread then. I mean....Heck I LOVE seeing things like this because it WILL help me. It pushes me along to do what I have to do. I actually copied your ideas and habits you have listed and saved them in a file I have here at home on my computer. I want to look back on the successful people when I'm feeling I'm not doing well. I want to be able to peek at their words and goals and dreams and how they did it to see if there is anything there I can use to help myself get to my own goals. I suppose if someone is down and out because they aren't losing, heck we all would be after going through all this, but, if you're not in the mood to hear about someone elses success then just move on to the next thread that tickles your fancy. I just don't get why people get so upset.

Don't change anything, don't feel bad for posting or even worry about what you've said here. You didn't hurt anyone by posting this, heck to me, you've helped more people move towards their goal.

YOU GO GIRL!!!!! Congratulations!

        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.

      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
