HI, rtwisdale, it does feel so good to share such info as my weight and not feel as though i will be judged about my size. I didn't quite make the deadline, but i sure did lose and feel so good. I am now at 200lbs., I hope I lost some more this weekend and hopefully I will be in onederland when I get on the scale tomorrow at work. I have not been in the onederland since my high school years and now my daughter is going to the high school, so i definitely feel good about where i am at with my weight now. I still have about a good 50 lbs. more to go and I know with the great support on this website, I will make it and feel good about it. Thanks you guys for being such great SUPPORT. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ON THEIR JOURNEY!!!!!!:clap2:

Hey, RTWISDALE, how are you? My goal for this month is 12 lbs., wish to be atleast 190 by Labor Day. I believe this could really be good to make a pact with someone else who has the same goal as I have. We could start this today and weigh in in exactly 4 weeks from today which will be Labor Day. If you have a different goal, let me know. Once again thank you.:clap2:

I'm dedicating myself to put in a some strength training, but I really have a mental block on that. Congrats to all! and good luck on the next september challenge!!!!

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

    • 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
