Hi Julie. I was also down 1.4 last week. I thought it was posted at one point, but then it disappeared. So mine should say -1.4, then -3.

Congrats on reaching the 250's! It's always so exciting to reach one of those milestones.

Deb, have a blast at your reunion tonight and a wonderful trip. I'm glad your mom is doing better.

So I weighed myself today and I have lost 4 lbs. No clue how. Been trying really hard to get in more calories. I am still going in for the unfill though, hopefully they won't take too much, but I would like to be able to eat more solid foods. Maybe they will just take out a teeny itty bitty bit :(

Colordomom is coming into town for a fill this week. Just checking to see who would like to meet at RR? She will be here on Wednesday.

Unfortunately, I'll be working on Wednesday. I hope you can get a group together. That would be nice! BTW, I lost 6.2 lbs this week! Total loss since the challenge started is 10.2.

I am in the 250's!!!! WooHoo :( I can't even tell you the last time I saw the 250's on the scale (probably 15 or more years) :tongue2:

Congrats! I bet that feels wonderful!!!

put me down for +.8:frown: Oh, well...

won't be checking in next weekend as we leave Tues. for Provincetown for our 25th anniversary. Now that mom is FINALLY over the fever portion of this infection, I feel as if I can relax and enjoy myself on the other coast.:thumbup:

tonight is my 40th class reunion. should be interesting.:thumbup: if anything noteworthy happens, I will share tomorrow.

dee, how are you feeling?

mini, girl, you got it goin' on!:sneaky::seeya::sneaky:

I hope you have a wonderful Reunion! I'm glad your Mom is finally over the fever portion of the infection. Enjoy your anniversary time in Provincetown.

I am feeling much better physically. However, my moods are a different story.

Just checking on the challenge. I didn't get losses for a couple of people last week, or this (or I could have just missed them :blushing:)

If I have overlooked you, please let me know. I am still getting the hang of keeping track :lol: (like it's brain surgery or something.....)

Mini, sorry I lost your first weight (I guess it got lost in all my copying and pasting. Thank you so much, again, Dee for teliing me I could edit. That has been a sanity saver for me!!!! )

And Miss Dee------ WOW, you are a weight loss goddess right now. over 10 pounds in 2 weeks.... Way to go.....:seeya:

Julie, put me down for -2 for the week please. I'm up for Red Robin, but if no one besides you, me and Coloradomom are available, maybe we can go somewhere a little closer to us?

Yes! I'm sorry I won't get to meet you! I had the dreaded flu so I think that had something to do with my big weight loss this week! I don't want to go through again!

Yeah, the swine flu diet plan doesn't sound too fun.

Julie, I was just looking at the goals, and I had forgotten that I said 16. My weight loss was based on 15 to hit my next goal and I lost another pound in the interim. Sooo, can you actually put me down for 3 instead of 2? Sorry if this is confusing. It's confusing to explain it.

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        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
