I started my journey at 350!! I was 18 years old & I felt my life was worthless. I hates waking up in the morning & I avoided leaving my house at all costs (I didn't even realize this at the time)! I'm now 6 months out as of today!! My life as completely changed' date=' I have this long called confidence, I want to wake up & start my day & best of all I hate being stuck in the house! Well here's my six month progress pics! The one that's a picture of a picture is the one my nut took a day before my surgery![/quote']

Good for you. You look great.

Hello Nikkia' date=' First, you have lost 106 pounds wow - and your just over 1 year out. Congrats on making it this far! You do not want to fall back into old patterns or go backwards and start gaining.I have 4 basic rules! (1) My no no are sodas - diet or regular. I have not picked up a can since the day before my surgery. I pretty much only drink Water every day. (2) My must have is logging food. I am uncomfortable eating more than a cup of food for one meal and on average I eat about 1,000 calories a day. You can log it in online or on your phone - I prefer the free app my fitness pal. (3) Exercise. I don't mean run a marathon or become a gym bunny. This is a life style change. You have to find something to do for a min of 15 mins a day to start. You can walk in place, dance. Walk around your backyard. Hula hoop, wii, ANYTHING. This isn't about burning the calories, this is getting your body use to the new you and away from sedentary lifestyle. I have fibromyalgia, Migraines and auto immune. Exercise is the hardest thing for me, but I know before the end of the day I will make my body move for at least 15 mins! Sometime I literally walk in place or do circles in my backyard. (4) No Trigger Foods - mine is bread. I don't eat it. I don't buy it. I eat open face sandwich, just the toppings on a pizza. I stay away from the thing that cause me to gained weight and something I can not resist! Protein issue - I still have a hard time getting in my Protein, but when I want to drop or break a stall I do about 70 grams a day. The thing that helped me was powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored protein - you can mix it with anything and it gives you an extra 20 grams. My other favorite is a cup of coffee at the end of the night - I use fit frappe by a company name train. They have all kinds of flavors - But with Protein!! On a good day this is my schedule. Protein Bar - 21 grams / 1 gram sugar snack - yogurt 15 grams lunch - tuna to go 15 grams Snack - Eas Protein shake + Unjury unflavored protein 38 grams dinner - (this changes daily) coffee - 10 to 20 grams Boom!! That's almost 100 grams of protein, right around 1,000 to 1,200 calories a day!! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk[/quote']

I looked up this drink. Can you drink if hot? I love coffee.

Ok Im trying to find a place to pick back up... I.don't get sick from any foods' date=' which sucks because the reason I chose rny was to have restrictions... I have weighed the same for about two months now... I find myself drinking soda, taking sips here and there... I can't even remember what the clear liquid diet consist of because that's where I feel I need to start at again... somebody help Surgery date: April 23, 2013 SW: 298.8 Today's weight: 238.6 GOAL WEIGHT: 160[/quote']

Wow me and you sort of have a history. I had my rny on April 23, 2012. My surgery weight was 297. I'm currently a year and a half out. My current weight is 197. My lowest has been 193. I'm assuming this is where I'm going to be. I'm always between 193 and 197. I'm just trying not to gain anymore. I was thinking of doing the clear liquid for two weeks. I was able to have chicken broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free juice and sugar free Popsicles. I think you can have anything velar as long as it's sugar free.

I made soo many bad choices today. And all day all I could think was " just because I can doesn't mean I should" and now when I decide to make a good choice and have some yogurt full of Protein I dump. He works in mysterious ways and so does this darn pouch. Lessons to be learned. Just had to share that.

      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
