Its TOM and I gained a pound. I am not changing my ticker in hopes I am back down next week. Getting this goal is really hard at the end of the journey. I have been this weight up and down for two weeks now. I sure hope I drop again soon. My personal goal and labor day goal is 135 and I sure would like to reach it and stay there!

Starting weight 180

Goal weight 175 (literally goal weight, LOL!)

Pounds to go: 5

Well, nothing like starting a challenge and then dropping out of sight. :) But here I am, and I'm down a couple of pounds, losing typically slowly here at the very end. At least it's still coming off!!

Starting weight: 180

Goal weight: 175

Current weight: 178

Strategies that seem to be working:

1. Cut back on the cheese--my cheese-a-holic nature is still present, but I have tried to stay away from it on a few days, and I think that has made a difference.

2. Eating less in general--I haven't been all that hungry. Don't know if it's the heat or what--don't really care.

3. Staying busy and moving around. Exercise is still not happening, but we've been re-doing my office and getting an apartment and our guest room cleaned out, painted, and arranged, and that's some physical labor.

Goals for the next couple of weeks:

1. Water. I am dehydrated. I need to focus on drinking even when I don't feel thirsty.

2. Greens every day. My lack of this now is just laziness on my part--I don't feel like cooking, because I'm not really all that hungry. But the nutrition benefits are worth the effort.

3. Stay busy, move around, burn calories. I'm not going to call it exercise. :)

Good luck, y'all! Love to see everybody pursuing their goals and having good success!!

      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. 🤞
