I had to buy a new scale. My digital one wasn't moving and I felt something wasn't right. Low and behold I buy a new one and I am 12lbs less than what I thought. Thank God I was worried

Week 4 Stats - down 2.6 lbs & 1.5 inches this week. I'm at 250.6 lbs today. Down 16.4 lbs & 14.25 inches in 4 weeks. Down 29 lbs in 6 weeks (when pre-op diet started). I'm going to weigh again on Thursday, 6/14, to see what my loss is for exactly a month after surgery since that was 5/14.

I'm going to Schlitterbahn Wednesday and I'm wearing a size 14 swim suit lol that was way too small last year. Not sure why I even had it, I maybe accidentally picked it up at a garage sale or something. Lucky me now though :) I have wore a 14 in maybe 12+ years!

Sleeved May 21st at HUMC by Dr. Trivedi. Started at 232 lbs and down to 207 lbs. lost 19 lbs post op. I am so happy to find May sleevers. I thought I was losing too slowly until I came across this thread. Appears I'm on track, so feeling less frustrated and a bit more confident! I'm always looking for recently sleeved friends on my fitness pal. My name is herst0ry (0=zero).

      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.
