LauraAnn is exactly right - join MFP, log food, high Protein, low carb, drink lots of Water and exercise. You can do it. You will do it when you follow the rules. That is what we all need to do to be healthy and to maintain our health. A little indulgence is okay, but right back to the rules after. You have an awesome tool, the sleeve, that will help you so start to day and begin your journey.

My favorite saying is "Fit is hard. Fat is hard. Pick your hard."

Go back to basics! 800 calories max per day, 60-70 grams of Protein, 64 ounces of Water, exercise 3-5 days a week for 45 minutes. Stay away from bad carbohydrates Pasta, chips, cake,cookies,ice cream,fried chicken, pizza, . stick to vegetables and fruits for your carbs. Once your back on the wagon don't stop keep going till you get to goal! Weight your self every week! that will keep the weight from creeping up on you without you noticing. Another idea which is my ultimate gift to my self is gonna be a waist necklace? not sure if that's what they call it but its a necklace that goes around your waist. I wanna buy one so if I gain a little weight it will get tight and help me stay on track plus I think it would look nice :) just a thought I wanted to share

Do you eat 3 meals plus 2 Snacks or just 3 meals or what? I've been losing so slow but usually only eating 2 meals and no Snacks and I think I need to eat more. I'm usually between 500 & 750 calories. I don't think I'm getting enough liquid either, still having trouble with plain Water. I thought maybe I needed more calories but I see you have done so well under 800. Also I have barely eaten veggies and almost no fruit. I don't eat anything on your "bad carb" list, I mostly eat meat, cheese & drink Protein shakes.

BTW you look awesome in your profile pictures!

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
