Recommended Posts

Still feeling regretful. So stuck in a depressive rut. Going to the grocery store for some new found hope. Still eating healthy but running out of options. I am now 4 weeks post op. Something has got to give! Ugh!

The only thing that worked for me was getting variety and something I could chew. Also....focusing on what I'm grateful for. It works every time to help Pull me out of a depression. Hold on....it will pass....if it doesn't.....seek some outside help. :-)

Why the heck did I take a Vitamin on an empty stomach?!! I know better. Tried an egg white omelet with light cheddar cheese. Praying I don't vomit. I hate this feeling! :-/

Well... I have lost 16 pounds. While I am grateful I am a little disappointed. I thought it would be more. What gives! Ugh!

My mistake... I took my shoes and pants off and weighed again. I've lost 22 pounds. That's better. I knew I felt lighter. This is so stressful!

Thank you so much! :) I feel better now.

That's good! I'm here if you need support. We all need each other. This was a massive change. We can get through it together. I just had canned chicken 1.5 oz with Tblspn of mayo and 2 small mozzarella sticks with some cracked black pepper. I'm full and satisfied and feel good. :-)

      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
