aw gutted official weigh day and I didn't see the magical 160! Never mind, fingers crossed for next week! Been to Curves again this morning - no problem doing it on an empty stomach still - starting to enjoy it a lot more now and I'm seeing the benefits! Feel 'tighter' if that makes sense.

Bought some tops for holiday - had to get a size small cos the medium was hanging off me!! YEY! I know they are a 'baggy' style - bat winged - but still, a small is a small right! x

Wow, you are in a small! That's fantastic! That is really tiny....I know it doesn't feel that way in our heads, I still look at my body and see a big body too........hmmmm I'm beginning to have issues with my body image now....lol.....

I love that your wearing a small now! CONGRATS! :P

the weight is dwindling down now from my vacay......whew......I'm at my high bounce and tomorrow I will do nothing but Protein and monday is my fast day.....I do struggle with keeping it at 500, those Protein Drinks pack a lot of calories in them. :(

I'm going to see my DD and SIL and grandson where they are camping today. It should be fun. It's warmer inland so I will like that.

My daughter is a real snacker. Remember I said she had the RNY. She's pregnant though, so I am hoping they will be healthy Snacks.

I went to the fair last night and had a choc. covered frozen banana again. I hadn't gone off program all day, so I figured it wasn't all that bad. So I think I weighed 146

considering it's a guess with the cas, this morning. Fasting tomorrow but I'll be at work so all I can eat is what I bring.

I tell you, I HATE this cast.

Hi Daisy -- i know you've broken your wrist, but I guess I missed a post or something. How did it happen? I'm so sorry, being in a cast is awful.

No but my trainer called. He was going to call around and find out from a doctor a routine he and I can work with. I was going to call him after I get home for the day.

I have to work tomorrow so the soonest I can go to the gym is tues.

I made it through my fast day yesterday at just over 600 calories. I was doing really well' date=' but we ended up having company for supper and they brought puffed wheat cake for dessert. I don't love puffed wheat, but I did not want to be rude either, so I had a small piece. But it still was a success overall! I was down this morning back to the lowest I have been since starting 5:2. And even though I am expecting a bounce, I am excited that my holidays didn't mess me up![/quote']

Oh I'm such a piggy! What's a puffed wheat cake? It sounds healthy :D

Healthy, sure! One can wish though! It is puffed wheat, corn Syrup, cocoa, brown sugar and butter, that's it, melted and mixed together then pressed into a pan. They left it here, so of course I just ate another piece today. Ugh :( I have not self control. Sure it is my normal day, but I really didn't need it! I think I will try to convince my hubby to throw the rest of it out!

LOL! Yup not healthy :P

Trash sounds like a good place... I mean it's not like its a yummy cheesecake or Oreo Cookies that would be sacrilegious :P

Non fast day for me but I'm trying to have some control because I really haven't lost anything this week...

I threw a half gallon of no sugar added blue bunny ice cream down the sink the other day. That felt good.

Good for you!!

Sometimes it feels so hard in the moment because a) its yummy and B) you spent money on it. But I have learned it is just not worth it and feel more proud of myself for throwing it away! Hubby threw the rest of the puffed wheat away! Hooray for supportive partners!

I wish I was one of the sleeve patients that says, oh they don't like sweets anymore, they just don't taste as good! HA! HAHA! Everything still tastes as good to me and I still enjoy food!! I am glad you do too!! I can't keep Oreo anywhere near my house (I think my children feel I am the meanest mom ever for never buying them!)

        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.

        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
