jaideeian 3 Posted May 1, 2013 Today is day 6 and my emotions are all over the place. I'm happy because I FINALLY get to eat something other than a Protein shake! It has been a long road. On the other hand I am TERRIFIED to step on a scale. I have not weighed myself since surgery day. *302* I was shocked to learn that I actually lost weight BEFORE I got banded. I've struggled my entire adult life and half my childhood with my weight. I keep thinking its too good to be true. What if I still weigh 302 or even worse what if I GAIN weight?!?

dylanmiles23 2,198 Posted May 1, 2013 Congratulations!!!!!! Some people don't get on the scale except in their doctor's office. Then there is me who weighs them self toooo many times a day. My advice, don't get hooked on a number, get hooked on smaller size clothes. The smaller size clothes are super. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

destynee1 417 Posted May 1, 2013 I find weighing myself once a day or once every other day really helps. I always know where I am.. not getting on a scale resulted in my weighting so much.. well and also eating bad thiings. lol we all go through a rollercoaster of emotions.. its natural. I wish you well on your new journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaideeian 3 Posted May 1, 2013 Thanks everyone. Since I don't own a scale I think I'm gonna go to my aunts house (who had gastric bypass) and at least weigh myself once a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KAATNS 1,473 Posted May 1, 2013 Just be sure to weigh yourself around the same time of the day since you do fluctuate during the day. Best wishes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
