Thanksgiving Challenge....



Recommended Posts

That's great Wondering! I'm so happy for you making your goal. I am 3.6 lbs away from my 12 lb goal. I didn't lose anything for almost 3 weeks but this week I have gone down 3 lbs so hopefully I can get close to or hit my goal by Thanksgiving. I was fairly optimistic when I picked my goal and then with the stall saw my hopes of hitting it float away. This week has given me new hope that I might just do it! :)

I am so excited! I woke up this morning and am now 2 ounces away from my goal for the Thanksgiving challenge. I had stalled for a few weeks and was feeling like I wasn't going to get close to goal and then in the past few days I've dropped over 3 lbs. I am so happy & I love my sleeve :)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
