Sure we can do it, that's easy. I just signed up today on a 7 day meat and Egg fast, now that is HARD. In the past I have only lasted for 3 days, lost 5 lbs that stayed off. Today is day 1. I had planned on eating at my Church's feast this Sunday, oh well, I'll just have to caught the next one. I can still eat the meats tho.

Yes, it's like bacon and eggs, tuna salad, egg salad, chix, turkey, whatever kind of meat prepared just no veggies. You can prepare your meats with butters, oils, and mayo, and seasonings. I'm on the LowCarbFriends.com website and it's one of the diets on the board. Actually that's what my Dr. have me on plus little to no carbs, its just hard to do.

All that floor work sounds like cardio to me. My floors need to be mopped too, but DH supposed to be doing them this weekend.

I don't go to the bathroom as much as when I first started, I think I retain Water sometimes, but I have not had swollen ankles in a long time. I used to hate looking at my swollen ankles, not no more. My DH was gonna buy me an anklet for V-day but I said no I would rather have a necklace. Check back wit cha later:heh:

I have started my spring cleaning early this year...Today I stripped and mopped the kitchen floor, scrubbed the bathroom from top to bottom and went over every cabinet in the kitchen with a scrubber and a sponge...I just dont understand how everything gets so messy over winter time...Oh well, that part is done and shampooed the carpets last month so thats done too for now...

8 oz chocolate whey (breakfast)

8 oz chocolate whey (lunch)

3 wheat and cheese crackers (snack)

unk whats for dinner tonight but I hope its good

30 minutes on the gazelle

And just an update on my son and his diabetes: We had our first follow up appt with his specialist today and my son has lost 8 lbs this month and the dr said that he was doing great and didnt even feel a need to do any blood work today..He says that as long as he is showing that he is losing weight and doing well on his foods then his bloodwork would straighten itself out and he wasnt going to worry about it...He wants him back in May to check his progress...I am just so proud of him...He finally gets in to see his nutritionist on Tuesday and I myself am kind of excited about that appt too...He didnt want to weigh the entire time since his last appt and was shocked today thinking maybe 3-4 lbs but 8 lbs and his eyes got huge and he walks with a little extra umph in his step now...And this is kinda funny, but he actually says he needs new clothes now cuz his are too big....lol...hes a nut, but an 8 lb lighter and a happier 11 year old after today!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • 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
