Recommended Posts

scale is moving again!!

Going to gym 5 days a week--- usually for an hour (treadmill, bike, elliptical).

Trying to up my calories just a bit (as NUT advised) snacking on 100 calorie pack almonds & Holy Guacamole 100 cal packs-- avg about 800/ day. Trying diligently to get 60-80 g of Protein each day. Water seems to be my biggest struggle -- avg ~40-50 oz per day

Its funny to me how things hit my mind randomly. Today, for some unknown reason-- it dawned on me that I'm no longer in that 100+ lbs overweight category. I've tracked my weight loss (daily -- yes i know this is not a good practice but it works for me) since I began my weight loss journey. I've watched the number on the scale steadily go down. I'm down 70 lbs & have gone from a size 24 to a 16. All of which I'm very proud of but reality set in today when it hit me that i no longer fit (yes, pun intended) in the 100+ lbs category that I have carried for a long time (much too long!)-- my heart just sang. I still have a long way to go but man, this milestone is a huge one for me.

Congrats to everyone on their success and on their personal journey!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
