3/12/13 date of surgery

5 feet 7 inches

SW- 262

CW- 241

Goal W- 150

I have been discouraged thinking that I had not lost much. But feel better after reading other posts.

Trying to figure out exactly what I should be eating now. I currently eat about 1500 calories a day.

Feel like I am often hungry and thought I would have lost more by now.

Maybe my expectations were unrealistic.

I had a hip replacement and have not been exercising.

Starting a Water aerobics class in May. Hoping that makes a difference. Also, going to start journaling my food.

However... the good part is i KNOW I am eating much much healthier and feeling better. So it has to eventually make a difference. So glad I had the surgery!

Honestly, keeping a journal of what I'm eating has made a ton of difference. I'm just 4 weeks post-op so not exercising more than moderate walking and that's not every day.

You're a couple of weeks farther along than I am, but I have realized the more Protein I'm getting the less calories I eat overall. The Protein keeps me fuller longer. I am also keeping track of my carbs, as I want to limit them. I rarely get more than 600 calories a day.

Whoops I knew I forgot something. Darn it! Surg dat 3/18.

I also won't to share that I had complications (about 4 wks) at the start which I'm sure helped with weight loss. I just started working out at the gym this week.

We are all doing great. Don't get discouraged its just the beginning of our journey. We haven't even gotten out of town yet! Just you wait!

I don't know what's going on with my body...still at a stall of over 3 weeks!!! Went back to shakes and 2 bars/day to mix things up, but keep losing and gaining the same lb over and over!! Had tried upping my calories, but that didn't work for me, plus it didn't make me feel good about myself. I am losing inches tho..any advice is greatly appreciated! Being out 7 weeks, it seems like I would be the veteran giving out advice ..***sigh***

      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.
