You can do it! Really don't worry about the scale right now! There will plenty of time for that after the surgery...

I should know, I'm one of those crazy daily step on the scale people. :)

Oh and drink your water:p

You really do need to drink your Water. That is key. If you cant do it with just water, add it to crystal light or something sugar free and low calorie that you like.

I too was very frustrated on the preop because I felt like I was starving but the scale barely moved. Then when I was weighed before surgery it was surprising! Scale had certainly moved! Lost 10 of the 11 lb goal. Just stick with it and like they said, ignore the scale for now . . . . And more water!

I was like that to on my liver shrinking diet didn't lose anything for a week then stepped on the scale and dropped 3 more lbs, don't sweat the small stuff sweetie. Don't be a slave to the scale it will make you crazy just do what you are suppose to do and you will be fine. Here are some tips for weighting in:

1. Only weigh once a week

2. Weigh after you have had your first run to the rest room, you will be surprised how much poop and pee weigh....lol

3. never weigh after a meal or before you go to bed, you will be disappointed.

4. WEIGH IN THE MORNING AFTER YOU PEE AND POOP.....

5. NEVER WEIGH YOURSELF MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK

I know I repeated myself but it was for a reason it is important.....And remember you are beginning a lifestyle change, embrace it and have fun with it.......

4. WEIGH IN THE MORNING AFTER YOU PEE AND POOP.....

I really agree with #4. Weighing in the morning before you eat or drink makes for a pretty good baseline for tracking weight.

if u think getting your Water in now is difficult ---- it is harder after surgery. And if you don't get the water in, and take it seriously, you will become dehydrated-and end up in the hospital. Just saying. Good luck to you.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
