My surgery was on 12/13 and its been hard to drink the 64 oz of water, the Vitamins, and the protein. I have to start early with the vitamins and be conscious about drinking water.

Hi everyone!

I was sleeved December 28th, as of this morning I've lost 25lbs post surgery. I lost 19lbs in the first 13 days, then stalled for about 5 days and just started dropping the last 3 days, about 5lbs!

I'll be honest I think it's my Water intake. I basically would only pee once a day, now I'm up to the point of getting up at night. I don't always hit my Protein, I probably get about 40mg in. I also moved my exercising back, took 2 days off, will probably take this weekend off too!

I remember when I did weight watchers, they didn't like you excercising for like the first 8 weeks or something, it was to allowed your body to adjust to your new way of eating. I think this is the same!

I think we get hung up on what we "should" be doing as people loosing weight instead of listening to our bodies. I'm guilty, I thought get out there kill it on the treadmill, work work work!!!!! What I should be doing is listening and feeling my body. Learning about this new way! My doctors has me eating every 3 hours but I found smaller meals every 2 works better! I think my body is telling me to slow down on the workouts, I'm still healing. I know it's telling drink more water, we can last longer without food than we can without water!!!

Slow down, learn your body, put all the fears away, it's not going to work for me, this stall is never gonna end, I can't do this right!!! Open your mind and body and listen, learn the new you!!!

        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
