Yay Kathy!! And Lianna, don't you dare hide away from us. Now's the time you NEED us. I just went through a stall and a slump and everyone here got me through it. Stay plugged in, girl!

It's Sunday, it's raining, it's the day I weigh, and it's finally moved! The scales showed a 2.5 lb drop today. I broke down and bought some new shirts yesterday and I bought a goal outfit. I'm feeling pumped again. Watch out people... the NUT is back! *cackles*

yeah well love it up. I got on the scale yesterday and had a two pound GAIN. Son of a biscuit! I have been perfect too. And my workouts are not that muscle building, so I am sure it is not that. I think I am getting close to that time of the month, so even with all the Water I am drinking I might be retaining. ugh. :) I hate my body.

congratz though pn. glad you are back :mad: funks suck.

Ok, geeze... now I need a nap. ZZZzzzzz.....

Funny --- I too gained after losing a bunch last week - and I can't even blame TOM for that -- I'm gutted (and love it) -- so go figure -- if someone took x-rays of my stomach they would ask where are the fish? I have a darn aquarium in there full of water!!! Hang in there!

tryin to lol

my sour mood is because i am fat, only have workout clothes that fit me since DH did the laundry, live in a real estate market that is going crazy, and all of our savings is going to my surgery (when I want to throw it into a few houses and make more money), and have two kids that have been screaming since friday.

P'Nut!! I'm out of my funk too!! Shew...... It was getting a little depressing! :rolleyes I'm not sure what brought me out, but I'M OUT!!

I hadn't weighed myself in quite a while & about died when I stepped on the scale. I thought for sure it would have shown a BIG weight gain, but I actually weighed 200 lbs!! I LOST WEIGHT!! I am only 1 lb away from ONE-derland!! :biggrin1: This band works better then I thought. I don't feel like I'm on a diet. I eat normal foods, just stop when I'm full & I'm losing weight!!! :faint:

NOW I AM SOOOOOOO BACK ON TRACK!!! I'm only 1 lb. away from hitting a very big goal & I am not going back to anymore FUNKS! Pretty soon you'll be seeing a big picture of me stepping on the scale reading 199!!! (Tricia, I'm right behind ya girl!!!!!!!!)

I have been reading here everyday & you all keep me motivated!! THANK YOU!!! I'm giving everyone a big hug!!!!! :hug: Can you feel it?!?!

Funny - All the money in the world won't do ya much good if you're no longer around. YOU are important and don't you dare minimize your needs! I'm sure that Rob and the kids will be much happier with a healthy wife and mommy, than with more money in the bank. There will be time for that. Take care of you right now, sis. Take the kids to a morning pre-school activity thingie if you can. Even just three days a week. I can't imagine working at home with two little ones under foot. Give yourself a break. I'm sure they would love it! *hugs*

Diane - Woah.. the big 2-0-0! I am so looking forward to seeing your tootsies!! I'm happy for ya!

Tricia - Have I told you what a dear person you are? Well, I am now. You are such a kind hearted soul. I'm always so touched by the care and attention you give to your fellow man/woman. You really do rock, girlie friend!

Everyone - I realized today that even though we are all hitting mental slumps and seemingly low times along our band journeys, that we are all still moving forward. Even in the slow times, we are hanging in there together, arms linked, chins up, facing forward, taking another step together. And you know what? We WILL be victorious! All of us! *hugs everyone*

Ok, so I've given up on the May challenge. I had my surgery on the 1st! What was I thinking!!!!!!!!

The bright side is that I am looking forward to weighing in on Wednesday. With so little food (mostly going right through me), I am bound to post a pretty good loss.:)

        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
