Ok so it looks like I might make my goal. I have to bust a move in the next week though. It'll be hard! 7 pounds in a week. Can that be done? I finally got weighed today. My scale died on me a while back (over use! haha) so I haven't weighed in probably 6 weeks now. I got another fill. The last two lapband appts I've lost 11 pounds and this appt I only lost 7 so I got a 0.2 fill. See how I do.

You guys are doing great!

Josette,

Try low carbing it for a week, bet you'll hit your goal!!

low carbing it really works for me. i am down almost 20 pounds in 2 weeks.... of course i TOTALLY blew it tonight (i wanted Italian and ate Italian) and tomorrow is the Police concert, so low carb will be hard then too. So i will go back to low carb on Thursday.

i refuse to go on a 'diet' so i can't "go off"...

Well my least favorite time of the month is here and has me pinned down today at home. I swear I'd gladly donate my parts if anyone needs them...lol I'll take my 1 pound though I'm sure I won't make my goal. Do we want to start the next monthly challenge at the beginning of August or should we have it from the 15th to 15th so we don't lose motivation?

Congrats ladies on all your victories!!

Okay, I stopped at my PCP's office today to get some lab slips and I jumped on the scale while I was there (after all, it's Wednesday), and I have to keep reminding myself this will all change soon enough and the scale will go back up for a while...but...W O O H O O !!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

      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
