Gone for Good Club - July 2006



Recommended Posts

any chance I can get in on this club?:huggie:

I know I started poorly, but I'm being good now, and you are all so inspiring.

I was 371 in November, 2005. Was banded on the 17th.

As of yesterday, i weigh 221. Down 150.

My goal is 189, 32 lbs to go to goal, but I think I am gonna revise that goal. I think I'll be OK at 200-199 (I really wanna see the 1 on the scale.

best thing is I started with a 58 waist, am now wearing a 36. if I can get down to a 34, then I can say I lost 2 feet from my waist... that would be cool.

I am a day late posting, but we have been out of town and I have tons of catching up to do! I need to go check out the before and after threads and see the new pics! I swore I would post some at -50lbs.....and that is getting close (although it will take me 3 weeks to lose 3 lbs at my recent rate, lmao!) If it isnt too late to update, I will post my current stats.

All you late posters, sh*t happens and sometimes we can't get online to report our weigh in, and I know it seems fairly simple to do a quick edit to get late reports put in, but it's not simple at all. Every time we edit those pages, most of the formatting is lost and has to be redone, so while it's not much to change a number it does end up being time consuming to go back in several times to update folks. So please be thoughtful of the person handling the edits for the month and report on Wednesdays with everyone else. If you just cant, then wait until next week. I'm not griping at anyone about it, just letting ya know what it takes behind the scenes to keep the updates current.

 

One more thing, for those who are fairly new. We all take a second to uncheck the "Show your signature" when posting on this thread. Quite a few of the members are on dialup, so all the big siggy lines take a long time to load and make it hard for them to enjoy reading the posts. It also makes the thread not quite so long.

 

Thanks! You all rock!! :rockon:

haha Jenn28, nope, I'm up 3lbs since yesterday's weigh in. I had 3 beef ribs, 2 pieces of chicken breasts, a few bites of homemade mashed potatoes that were hard and not completely mashed (yikes). salad, garlic bread and oh... um.. raselberry pie. Wait wait a light dannon yogurt drink. That was all in 1 sitting too. I hadn't eaten all day due to work and workouts and then BAM! Bar-B-Que time and I became a hog. Talk about Portion Control huh? I am 170lbs this morning. I will get back down by the end of the weekend.

        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.

        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
