June 2010 Sleevers...JUMP ON BOARD THE LOOSERS WAGON!



Recommended Posts

167lbs is a low starting weight, but depends on your BMI. I have just got back from a (working) long weekend in Burgundy, and following excelent advice from Jane J on here, I ate a bit more than usual... I have lost a kilo in the last week. I'm going to stop leaping on the scales as much, and up the exercise, and up the calories a bit.

If I can lose around 5kgs per month... that is another 20kgs by the end of the year! :thumbup:

Heeeyyy! Im still here. Well I should say im back. 4 years out I have maintained my 210 pound loss until recently.

A couple weeks ago I was injured and doctors say I have to take at least 3-4 weeks off from the gym.

I have gained 16 pounds this past two weeks and I am freaking.

Any encouragement, advice, pep talks would be much appreciated!

      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.
