Drumroll. I just hit the overweight category. OBESITY BE GONE FOREVER. I now have 29.5 lbs to go to my goal of a normal bmi. Some days I wonder if I'll make it there.

Wow, LisaLisa! Congratulations!!! You did that so fast and I bet you feel so much better, as well. I hope i can be overweight someday real soon. On the surface, that sounds totally wrong to say but as you know...it's the truth. Keep up your great work!

Lisa, I'm not at goal yet. I have 11 pounds to "normal". I had my surgery 2/17/2010, so I'm further out that you all are. It's a great ride, enjoy the journey. You're doing great!

Happy to hear everyone is doing well and reaching overweight!

I'm 1.1 lbs from scheduling surgery! I'm nervous and excited, I've been waiting so long and things are finally going to be moving forward. Yikes!

Hope you're all doing well. I can't wait to post that I actually have a surgery date!

Hi Heather,

I'm so darn excited for you. I've been watching your progress over on the lapband site for over a year. You of everyone I know deserves this surgery so much. I'm really glad you're getting the Sleeve. You're going to love it! Get those darn 1.1 pounds off and get scheduled so we can all start celebrating. :)

Hey Ash, Wednesday night is the 8th anniversary of the Kaiser Bariatric Department. Maybe you can grab one of the girls and come on over to the meeting. It should be fun. I'd love to see you! :)

I just had a phone appt today with Kirk, and now I have an appt with Dr Alami next week. I could have had one tomorrow morning, but I just didn't have enough notice to get the time off work. Dang! I'm hoping to know my surgery date next week! Yippie!

      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.
