I was sleeved 7/22/13... Officially down 51lbs from surgery date .. I too am having trouble motivating to get to the gym ( hate it)! But I need to tone so I don't have floppy skin :( so far I'm ok . I pretty much eat what I want - cant eat much and I try to get in Protein or meat first. Thank God I enjoy Soups because often they are my go to lunch - I can usually get Soup down easier and feel satisfied. Everyone in my family says I still try to eat too fast which in turn makes me miserable after just a few bites.. I try to slow down but my mind is telling me this is delicious - your hungry -eat ?! Loving the sleeve - feel so much better and able to move around' date=' get dressed, not feel so tired ;)))[/quote']

Too fast! Me too! I just wanna get it out of the way most of the time. I can't slow down!

Oh no! Are we going to turn this thread into a confessions about Halloween candy consumption? If so.....yes, I did eat some candy...2 small tootsie rolls, 3 tiny butterfingers. They were yummy. By the way, my knees hurt like crazy today. Others have claimed that eating sugar can make them feel really bad. I have to admit that there is no other reason for my knees to hurt today except my dietary indiscretion!

Not confessions, I actually had no desire for it. S amazing I had to post. Last time I didn't have any Halloween candy I was probably an infant. (Usually its been a ton)

Sleeved July 30. I would categorize myself as a slightly slow loser, as compared to others I've seen. But happy about my losses? YOU BET!

I'm attaching my stats below for anyone that's interested.

It's just an Excel spreadsheet I created. I enter my weight daily and the spreadsheet does all the rest.

That's really cool. Wish I had something like that.

This is what I do. Not very fancy, but I like to keep track to see where I have come from.

      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
