Never in my wildest dreams did I EVER think I would be writing this post! My one year bandiversary is June 27th and I hit my 100lb' date=' actually 101lb, loss this morning!!!! I am over the moon happy with all the wonderful changes in my life! I am finally living again, and for the first time in a long, long, long, while I actually feel comfortable in my own skin.

For all of you newbies out there reading this I encourage you to keep the faith and stay strong in your long journey to your goal. It is SOOOOOO worth it.

By the way, I had a breast reduction and abdominoplasty 3 weeks ago and am so happy with the results!!!

My best wishes to all bandsters out there!!!!!

Ha! I've been there.....convinced the scale is broken!!!!! lol I'm 54 and have dieted since I was in third grade! I've finally learned that consistency over time is the key to reaching your goal. it seems like simple advice, but just like what your experiencing now with your stubborn scale, don't give in to temptation, just keep plugging along doing the right thing and you WILL reach your goal!!

Congrats!!! Thats awesome! In the beginning did it take a while to start losing?

Yes it did! My surgeon reminded me on my last visit how I cried like a baby having only lost 4lbs the FIRST momth!!!! My average was around 7 or 8lbs per month.

        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!

      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
