Here I am!!

I do not a computer where I am. I have to visit a cafe. And sometimes my kids are not very patient with me while I am reading all the things I am missing.

I did not get a unfill cause the coordinator did not return my call, and so when I was in PV I did not have an appointment.

I am able to eat a little. But I am begining to believe the reason I keep PBing is because I still can{t get it through my thick skull to eat slowly and take small bites. And then when I do eat I am so thirsty and I drink which make me PB. OK so I must work on teeny tiny bites and s l o w l y.

I am doing better, PROMISE! Im even ate refried Beans and sour cream, yum! The quesadilla didn't work as well!

Thank you all for your concern. I really appreciate it!!

Tacky souvenirs for everyone!! haha

Hello!!!

Well I have eaten. some days more than others.

My mom is coming to stay with me, so I think I might just go for that unfil now. Cause she won't get "it".

I am still having trouble with, the taking my time and chewing. Duh! It's not that hard is it?? But I still inhale or try to inhale my food. And then oops I did it again!

Where's your ticker Mandy?? You are so small now you don't register????!!! I know only "I" think I am funny!

Oh, ok... I thought she wouldn't get how you can eat so little, blah, blah... I got it now. When are you gonna get the defill? (if she's coming tomorrow, how will you swing it?) She'll think you turned into some dainty little lady, eatin' like you do!

And thank you... workin' on hittin' that 100. Not counting on it being this week though!! haha

Hey mandy

I have been doing well while my mom has been with me. She noticed I've lost 25 lbs since she's last seen me. She asked what I am doing. Walking! I say! I think it has been a good lesson for me to have my mom here cause I do not want to tell her so I am VERY careful of what my food choises are and stop as soon as I think it may come back and I have slowed down too!! It has been good. Some things I have realized I should not even try to eat potatoes any kind yuck! and ppcorn not good when bp'ed!!

Other than that all is well in my world!

Well, that's good... you're getting good training! Even mashed potatoes aren't good for you? popcorn is very easy, and always trouble free for me. Fickle, fickle bands!

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
