I've lost 28 pds, and my biggest challenge is overcoming Christmas dinner and seeing my coworker stuff there faces with greasy oh so tasting food I was enjoying before surgery

Hey there Wendy! Ha ha! Anyone notice how the real Wendy looks like a drag queen? LOL

Anyway, I am 24 pounds down from my surgery date, down 54 pounds from my highest weight about 1 year ago. I am freaking ecstatic, even though I seem to be in a bit of a stall right now- I'm retaining SOMETHING because I gained .8 between last night and this morning. I am only able to get down about 650 calories a day, and I struggle with getting enough Protein and getting all of my fluids in. I am great about taking my Vitamins. I was supposed to have another post-op appointment today, but I had a sick kid home from school so I rescheduled for Thursday.

I hope 4 weeks out finds you all well and rockin' your sleeves!

-Kendra

Highest weight: 302

SW: 272 (12/17)

This morning: 248.8

Slatter...keep positive! Your body is still adjusting. I KNOW it's frustrating, boy do I know! But it WILL change & the weight WILL come off, hell..it HAS to...we aren't eating anything! Lol just keep doing what your doing & it will turn around soon!

Thank you!! I know it has to work as I'm eating 1/1000 of my pre op diet....but with the low weight loss and going on a two week stall its hard to not think am I going to be the only one this surgery is not going to work for LOL

I'm Dec. 18th but figured that was close enough. :-) Down 21 lbs since surgery. I was in a week stall then read a post on here that explained why drinking at least 64 oz a day was so important, so I upped my Water and lost 4 lbs in 2 days.

The only problem I had was extreme nausea during my entire 2 night hospital stay - it was awful but once home I was fine. I love, love, love my sleeve!

      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.
