Wow r u going to the gym I want to lose that wait as fast as u ...

No, I have just been walking. My incisons are still sore. :(

My surgeon put me on Optifast pre-op for 7 days and I lost 15 pounds just by that.

I also started at a really high 364 so that could also be why, lol. I am 322 now.

Sleeved on 8/27. Down 11 lbs!

Started puree diet today - so far so good. WOW I fill up on 1 oz of puree anything... I do love it so.

Water still hurts going down for some reason but I sip away anyway.

I had my surgery August 12th. I guess I've been a slower loser post surgery than many on here. I've lost 14 lbs since surgery but lost 20 lbs pre-op so I'm proud to be 34 lbs down, getting into clothes that I haven't been able to wear in a while, my labs look great, and I'm off my blood pressure medicine!!! I'm on purée foods and I'm tolerating them well. I could always improve my Water intake. I also need to exercise ( story of my life). Only problem I've really had is becoming lightheaded at times. Jumping up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night has been a little scary. I guess I need to sit up a minute first because I've felt like I was going to pass out a few times. I'm not sure if that's due to not getting enough water or calories or what??

Sleeved on 8/12 started at 304lbs down to 265lbs. I am tolerating meats and solids. I can't wait to start working out to speed things up. I enjoy lean turkey, grilled chicken and making crystal light slushes in my magic bullet for liquids. My only problem so far is falling asleep at night... I don't know why I can't fall sleep... Maybe I should log off now it's 2am -_- haha cheers

I also had my surgery on that date and its going day by day. I feel myself still batteling a little bit of trying to binge eat.last night my family had tacos..so I tried some cheese,grounded up turkey meat and some sour cream....I ate so fast (I know I shouldn't) and I wanted to crawl in bed to go to sleep..my tummy was so full I could of put myself in a food coma.this is something I will learn from but it really scares me. I have been trying different foods to see what I can tolerate. I do already think that I need to make better decisions....should I really be saying this after weight loss surgery..no..but I am..I am excited that soon ill get able to workout. It puts my thinking cap on alot of times. Good luck to ...

      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.
