I can't imagine anyone doing better than you have, not based on the weight you've lost (which is awesome) but based on the things you've succeeded in changing about your life. You inspire me every time I read one of your posts! Nervous, schmervous! :D

Your Dr. should be very happy with your success... As you know it's not easy by any stretch of the imagination..but as you say if you Want TO you can do it... losing as much as you have is a big deal... Thanks for what you do...

the way i see it, as long as we lose, that is what matters...

i also believe in realizing inches lost means weight loss...

You'll be fine! I've felt like a bit of a failure for my Doc, I mean, nothing spectacular as far as weight loss but on the other hand I remind myself in 6 years of meds/dieting/starving/working out I couldn't break the 200 mark and my weight just kept creeping up. I'm finally seeing results and feel great. An anniversary won't be stopping me from getting healthier and in that I will always consider this sucessful! I'm hoping to be around 170/175 by anniversary...counting down! Good luck everyone!

        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
