7/8/13

HW: 255

SW: 241

CW: 182

Lost 59 since surgery.

It's almost time for my holiday party at work and for the last 8 years I have dreaded finding a dress and feeling like the fattest person there (I work in fashion so everyone is TINY). I found some pics from my HW SW and now in my holiday party dresses. I'm thrilled now and can't wait for this party!

July 30th sleever checking in.

HW 292

CW 221

Down 71 lbs

NSVs:

- I'm [FINALLY] buying clothes in "normal" sizes!

- I have collar bones!

- I decided to get a shorter hair cut since I'm losing my extra chins!

- I didn't worry about collapsing the table when I got a facial today!

- I walked through a restaurant last night without knocking purses off of chairs and bumping into tables!

Yes, I'm still obese. And yes, I still have a long way to go. But by golly...I've come a long way as well!

Down 67 pounds. Almost halfway to my goal weight. I am facing my food demons now, psychologically, and am glad I laid a strong foundation for the battle. Yoga every day. Some hair loss. Water is still an issue but Protein is much easier. Averaging 900 calories and 40 carbs daily. So glad I did this. Shovelling snow was easy and my social anxieties are fading.

I am also facing a psychological battle. For whatever reason I have spent the last couple of weeks sabotaging myself. Otherwise feeling great and down 72lbs (Surgery date: 1 July). I can also eat virtually anything I like now which is a mixed blessing.

      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.
