Now that I have your attention where is this weeks quiz. Oh, I didn't mention there would be quizes. My bad!

What habit do you have left over from your max weight that you need, or would like to break?

Here is mine. I still drive around the parking lot looking for the closest parking space, even though I know the walking is good for me and I don't mind walking anymore. I even caught myself doing this at the gymm the other day. So starting today, well maybe not today since it is so cold it makes you remember that men have nipples too, but as soon as it warms up I am going to start parking as far away from the store as I can.

Bad habit I need to conquer: I still let my emotions dictate what and how I eat. It has never helped before and it sure isn't helping now. I need to get this under control, I can't be an emotional eater and be successful.

Laura here - down another 3lbs to 227 - Yeah! I'm pushing myself really hard to get to 223, which will be exactly half way for me!! As for the bad habit, I want good habits to replace the bad ones. I still have a constant mental struggle to make the good choices. I don't have any restriction yet - and I pray it gets easier once I finally get there, but for now it feels like I'm denying myself everything that's good!

down 3 pounds! woohoo, half way to my goal for February!

As far as my bad habit goes, I still tend to order a whole meal at a restaurant instead of just sharing. I still think I can eat it all! AND.. I need to stop thinking that I need to eat, just because it's the time of day!

        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
