I just couldn't stay away from the scale! I only went 3 days without weighing in before I caved!!! :thumbup:

However, I'm glad I caved in because I was beginning to rationalize fast food feeding frenzies! Now that I've seen the drop on my scale achieved by being good I can toss those massive cheeseburger dreams aside! :w00t:

I forgot when weigh in day is, shame on me it's been so long. Anyway, I'll put this one down even though I think it'll creep back up some. Had a gastro thing that I caught from my granddaughter for 2 1/2 days and have barely eaten so yeah, I'm going to lose some weight...lol The truer picture will be next week. :tea:

Poor Staindgal. My hubby is down with the flu. They put us both on tamiflu. I sprained my left ankle taking him to the Dr. We had 12 inches of snow over the weekend. I was very bummed about the ankle, because in December I tore my gastroc muscle in my right calf. So it really is a hindrance to exercise. This too shall pass right? Anyway, I did manage a bit of a loss...In view of the injury going to revise my goal for this month.

I can't believe I'm even getting close to "TWOterville". When I started this journey just about a year ago (3/24/07) I weighed 374 lbs.

Weighed myself yesterday and I'm down to 304lbs, that's 70 lbs gone!

I had my surgery on 10-25-07, it really is a life altering experience. Of course it has it's up's and down's - but I can honestly say that it has been more positives than negatives.

Looking forard to seeing numbers in the "TWO" zone. Everyone keep up the great work.

03-24-07 - 374lbs - Started Journey

10-25-07 - 349lbs - Surgery Date

12-05-07 - 325lbs - First Fill - 3cc's in a 10cc band

01-16-08 - 319lbs - Second Fill - 2 additional CC's

02-28-08 - 311lbs - Third Fill - 1 additional cc

03-11-08 - 304lbs - Isn't it great

Just getting over my girlie time. I won't weigh myself for another few days. Man! Why can't I just seem to control myself during that time? Love those salty things... and no first fill until April 11th. That really is awful, I feel like I can still eat too much. I know it's much less than before, but then again, I get hungry quick too. Someone help me!!

Glad to see everyone else doing so well! I will hopefully get some good restriction with my first fill. It's less than a month away.

We're halfway through this month, so I thought I would check in. Did I set the bar too high for myself this month? Who's to say, but I darn well am going to try my hardest to get to see 259 by the beginning of next month!

I'm not weighing until the end of the month (so I don't torture myself) but I can tell it's been going well. I hope you are all kicking but. I'm so excited for those about to hit TWOterville. Now, pardon my ignorance, I get 'ONEderland' but what is TWOterville? Does it have another meaning?

Hi insubordination,

Onederland refers to a three digit weight beginning with the number 1 (i.e. 167) and twoterville is the same, a three digit weight beginning with the number 2 (i.e. 243).

I hope it helps.

Cheers,

Mary

No, I think it was just made up - it sounds good though.

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
