Can you give me some daily menus you have chosen, and how often do you exercise? You have done great! I stopped at thirty something, cause I bounce back and forth wit 4-7 lbs. I have been upping my Protein, and still losing hair, I'm tired all the time and have no energy! I need some support!

Take Biotin & get some Nioxin. These items really helped with my Hair loss. And, of course, you must take all of your Vitamins, eat your protein & get your liquids in...good luck!!!

Oh, if you look ay my most recent YouTube video, you can see what the bottles look like. Warning--they are expensive & beware of knock-offs online. YouTube--Littlebits0604

Still losing a lot of hair, how long before the biotin starts to work? So many regrets!

Oh my gosh! I just saw your posts now! Are you taking Iron supplements? Maybe that could account for a lack of energy? Why do you regret?

How is everyone doing?? What are you eating now? I was sleeved on June 25th. I'm down 76lbs. I have been losing the same 2lbs for about 3wks now. Gotta get back in my exercise routine now that the holiday stresses are over. Hope everyone has a wonderful new year!!!

I hear your pain somewhat! Since December 1st or so, I have been fluctuating between 142-140 pounds! My body just is teasing me with the idea that I could be in the 130s!

I regret doing this because of my Hair loss, and I haven't lost a lot of weight. Could lack of iron cause hair loss. I uped my dose of Biotin to 5000, and I'm still losing "lots" of hair!

Is anyone still around? If so, how are you doing now? Me: 5 foot tall Started at 215 Now: 130 Goal was 115, but I wonder how that will look... I'm pretty thin right now at 130. I have kind of large muscles and bones... I am going to take it 10 pounds at a time right now. My new goal right now is 122. I had the surgery on June 20, 2012.

        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.

      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
