Ok, so I have allowed myself a little too much slack these last few weeks and I am motivated to get rid of my carb cravings.

Lil Diva posts a great plan http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/28139-the-basics-boot-camp/ that I want to implement immediately.

Anyone else in?

I need to do it to! It seems like every food out there has some form of carbs, and boy they are easily addicting. I am starting tomorrow what about you? Im in a stall right now have been for a little while, need to give myself a kick in the butt.

Yep, I'm stalled out too but I know it's because I let carbs slowly creep back in. Let's buddy up and do this. 5 days - seafood, chicken, turkey, eggs, green veggies, dairy (no sugar) and 1 gallon of Water each day. Wed. - Sun.

Everyone is welcome to join. I don't drink Protein shakes but if you do and are concerned, probably should watch it. I think the point is to get back to low carb and jump start things again. I am guessing that a gallon of Water will keep you so full that calories won't be too much of an issue from Protein Shakes.

I weighed in this morning at 239.4, hoping to get down 5 pounds. Good luck everyone..Don't forget to check in tomorrow.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.......I have been playing around with chocolate and low fat icecream in the month of February & I need support to get back on track. I have been sitting at 200lb.'s for at least 2 weeks, it is almost like I was scared to get into onederland, I am not sure why, I am so over that now and I am ready to travel to 190, 180, 170, 160!!!!! Yes I am ready

No fruit though? Ok, I will do what it takes, thanks again for throwing this opportunity out there.

Does anyone want to post what they plan to eat tomorrow?

Yes that is a lot of Water.....I am going to keep this in mind. Copied off a Water site.

Have you ever flushed a toilet without water? Unless it has been in an outhouse, you probably haven't. We have internal filtering and elimination systems that keep toxic substances from building up in our body. Water benefits every system of the body and for the sake of visualization, it flushes our human toilet (the bladder and colon), not to mention it hydrates our body and keeps our skin, hair and nails healthy.

        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.

      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
