15 so far in the last couple weeks surgery should be the 28th. Hoping for another eight which puts me right at 35bmi. I want to start as low as possible I'm a slow loser.

I've lost 11 pounds since Sunday!! LOL.. got on the scale this morning.. 364.0!!! I can't believe I just typed my weight!! Yes, the weight I will NEVER be again!!!

Oh, my resp. therapist tried to weigh me on a 350lb max scale.. When I told her it wouldn't weigh me, she didn't believe me!! LOL... That was funny!

In my Kaiser Options group classes I had to attend, we had to lose 10% of our weight. I started the classes on June 1st. By the time I had my surgery on Oct 25th, I had lost 52 pounds on my own... :) :)

10lbs is still good! did u cheat?

I was real good until the 9th day when I got that call on a Friday telling me my insurance would not cover the hospital and I could not have my surgery. WTH-eck. So I got angry and rebelled for a day but quickly got back on track after asking for forgiveness. I found another sugeon and life is good. No doubt I would have lost more if they'd left me alone. But if I had not got that call I would have been banded. so it turned out to be a blessing.

I remember thinking the same thing when I posted my starting weight!

I can't believe I just typed my weight!! Yes, the weight I will NEVER be again!!!

But you will never have to type that again (except when you are celebrating how far you've come!)

I was required to lose 10 and I ended up losing 20...over the course of 6 months...it wasnt all at once during pre-op. We had to lose 10% of excess body weight before they would schedule the surgery.

      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.
