Everyone is doing great. Even Darcy, who lost that 6 lbs. last week. :D I lost 2 since last Monday, but put it in my signature Thursday, which is my official weigh-in day, so no new loss to report today.

I love the ticker tapes. They give such a nice visual of the weight loss. :D

I lost 1/2 lb. Does that count? I'm kinda surprised I lost anything at all. One of my brothers is living with me for a while. His version of the food pyramid includes only cheesecake, frozen waffles, and pizza, so my refrigerator is stuffed with all that junk. Today I'm making a fill appointment -- I can eat a lot without restriction, except for hard-boiled eggs and canned tuna! (Go figure.)

Zoe.

I took a PM Pole and everyone decided this time the 1/2 pound will count ...lol

Of course it counts....Even zero weight change counts as a weight loss. Remember the old days when it was always going up...Not anymore(with the exception of a few weeks a year...we're entitled).

Congraulations Zoe, Sammy, Betty and Becky... Great job.

If anyone is interested in an Easter challenge We can run a thread on that. I'll try to do beter job with stats this time unless someone else wants to volunteer??? Since its really not a big eating holiday with the exceptioon of Easter Sunday maybe we can run it as a support to stay away from candy? ?? Any Ideas??

fine print:malted milk eggs that turn your mouth blue and pink don't count as forbidden food

Does that mean I have to give up those malted milk eggs that turn your mouth blue and pink? Awww...... You know I'm not gonna let you get ahead of me, Greg. :D

In the past, someone kept track of things by posting a list and each person cut and pasted it to include their own info. People who need help just ask. That worked really well.

So .... I should eat all my candy now to be prepared for Easter? I wonder if those candy eggs are out yet....

Hey, Greg, I am definitely up for an Easter challenge, now that I've read the fine print. If we get a pass on malted milk eggs you can definitely include me! I'm finally getting another fill on Friday, after a month of procrastination, so maybe I'll be able to drop a few more lbs. before spring -- which hits around Memorial Day here, a couple of weeks before summer begins.

Evil twin hijacks the thread: Alert, all malted milk fans: There's a killer recipe in Nigella Lawson's "Feast" cookbook with malted milk in the cake and buttercream frosting, with a ring of chocolate malted milk balls on top. Substitute pastel egg candies for something more festive.

Evil twin dashes from the computer while Zoe beats her upside the head with a wooden spoon.

Betty, Darcy Harleynana

Thank you.

Betty I saw the other thread too and no I am not getting a big head. But Becky should...isn't she adorable????

Becky had a hard enough time sizing the one I had into this small area..lol But she did it. Think she used a pattern from one of her hats.

        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
