My mini goal is to get my Iron levels up enough so they do not cancel my next surgery date of June 21st!! Taking my iron pills, eating meat, being treated by the gynocologist to try to reduce the bleeding! :blink:

Mini goals are great! I really believe they helped me to lose 54 lbs. My next goal is to get to 150 by June 15. That means I need to lose 8 lbs in 4 weeks, I think I can do it! Hitting the gym today!!

ARGH!!!!! WTF???

OK So I get to my 2nd mini goal expecting to weigh less than my husband who weighed in at 188lb last week, I gleefully weigh in at 187, and think that finally, after 12 years I'm the thinner one - WRONG!!!

I make my husband weigh in, and he's dropped to 185lb (without trying!!!!!), so he's gone and moved the goal posts grrrrrr! :argue: (bless him, in all honsety he doesn't even know what he has done!!!)

Haaa Cludgie!!! How dare he??? :lol:

At least yours didn't try though, since I passed up my hubby he has decided all of a sudden he wants to drop a few pounds!!! He hasn't weighed in in awhile (he's got nerves of steel... lol) but I bet once he does he'll have me chasing him once again!!! I know for a fact though because his stomach is already nearly gone. *sheesh*

      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.
