I am now 286!

I was 307 dos - 317 prediet but 319 when I got out of hospital had lots of fluids took the whole 1st week to lose just that---

So I'm down 21 from dos but done beginning its 31.

I'm still doing lowwwwww cal - under 200 a day-- my Water intake and Protein intake are veryyyy low- no complications I think I'm just scared!

Only thing I've had to eat besides the liquid stuff is yogurt and black Beans w laughing cow cheese

What are u all doing?????

Hi I also had surgery on the 25th in SD and I live in WY. I feel wonderful. Down 26 lbs since DOS. Tonight I did have some cottage cheese and tuna. I have a hard time getting protien in. Went to Walmart today got lean body drinks with 25 grams each. I drink those and shakes all day and let myself have something at night. Love Tomato Soup too. I try to walk 30 min a day at least.

I am doing ok- had ricotta bake last night kinda made me sickies -- but had lil Samon patties today and a tsp of almond butter

I realllllly struggle to get in Protein after a month of doing them before and after I haven't had any in over a week

The glucerna hunger smart shakes in homage vanilla were good as was the Isopure premade

I'm trying to walk around the block once or twice most days

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
