I needed that....



Recommended Posts

I want to start by saying i'm Sorry too all my friends here.... I have been a bad role-model over these last few months... Need to start being honest with myself and say I have been a bad LB patients this past year.... I know you all have been there with me, supporting me and giving me all the "at-a-boys" and i truly appreciate them... Thanks for always being there for me.

So my apatite has been so out of control lately i find my self hungry all the time.... So this morning i call my doctor and he was able to get me in this morning. Stepping on the scale, i knew it would not be good.... 150... Holy ****. He added 1.5cc to my band and i'm hoping that will help me get my hungry back in Check.

I have been eating bad.... ice cream, and lots of carbs.... have not been drinking all my Water and have not been to the gym in over 8 months....

Today is a new start.... Going to get my Butt in gear and get into shape.... lose at least 10lb and get toned. NO MORE EXCUSES.....

I promise to me.... to get back on track and make me and all my friends proud. Block out all the negative and embrace all the positive.... NO MORE ICE CREAM.... more Protein and more water.... and back to the gym at least 4 days a week. I will start running tonight....

You have absolutely nothing to apologize for. I mean, really, that's like saying "sorry for being human". If anything, I respect you greatly for having the courage not only to come on here and share your mistakes but for taking back control in your life to correct them.

You're human, just like the rest of us. You messed up a bit but now you're back on track. You're going do to great, just stick to it :)

Mis said it well and let me add.... you ARE a modal bandster because you arent letting it get out of control... you are only up a few pounds... you will lose it in no time. Before the band it would just keep creeping back up.....

This is true.... before i would have already gained it all back. I know that band works and i know how to work my band.... I know what it takes and it takes not stopping at the ice cream shop on my way home and eating it in the car before anyone sees me.... stop going to the Cajun Potato and getting the baked potato.... Stop eating fruitloops at night for a meal when my husband is not home.....i need to get out of this Funk i'm in.... i need to stop listening too others when they start telling me... "your getting too thin"..... i need to get back to the Gym... and get dedicated to ME!!

2013 i will be 130-135 and toned....and tanned....lol Tan fat looks better than white fat...

Thank you guys

As for the too thin comments I am getting them too and its driving me nuts. I have 7 more lbs to lose....believe me I am not withering away..... I think people say it to make themselves feel better....

Your honesty is uplifting. Thank you for that. I have just reached my goal and entering into the new road of maintenance and this scares me more than the weight loss journey did. It is so refreshing to read stories like your, because as Missy said we are all human and we are going to have ups and downs. The key is being honest with yourself and doing something about it. & that is what you are doing.

Again, thanks for your honesty and good luck to you.

Insead of Ice cream I don't know if they have frozen yougurt places around where u r but I love the either non fat or sugar free frozen yougurt so that's what I eat cause I know I can eat a half gallon of ice cream well at least I used to and I used to eat a large frozen yourgurt now I can eat a small and be satisified so it seemed to help me for my sweet tooth also I put fruit in it just to make it more scrumptious and it taste just like ice cream.

You have done well. You are moving in the right direction. We all do these things but catching it before you get out of control is a great move. You are doing great ;)

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

    • 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
