Looking for a Vegas buddy



Recommended Posts

Nice to see more people from Vegas! How's everyone doing? Does anyone know when we are okay to start trying solid foods? I will be 6 weeks on Wednesday but don't have a checkup appt till the following week. I'm just getting sick of the same foods I'm ready to start something new!

I was allowed to stay after three weeks but was encouraged to start slow. I'm one of the people that eggs don't agree with.

Today is my two month mark and lost 50 pounds. I go to the gym 3 days a week for about an hour and half. My sister use to go with me but she's been flaking out on me. Once you get in ur own grove going by yourself is not bad you get pass it. The class I really enjoy at LVA is Sha'Bam. Find a class you like and you'll find yourself wanting to go.

What is Sha'bam? I'm past my two months and haven't lost near that much, but I just started the gym this week. I keep reminding myself that I need to be proud of what I am accomplishing and not compare myself. I'm closing in on getting into the 160s and excited about that. Hoping the gym well speed up the weight loss.

Don't compare yourself to everyone because we are all different. People say Sha'bam is like Zumba if you google it you can see some of the moves. I really enjoy it!

      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.
