Today I went shopping and did not have to go to the plus size section!! I'm wearing an extra large in most clothes and almost in a regular 16 in pants. My 16w are getting to big. HOWEVER- I've been getting this weird feeling of tiredness coming on and off all day long. I did the warm up exe on wii Zumba and was dizzy after 8 mins.

Congrats! Can't wait until I'm there. I'm stuck in 20s for now. But I had a NSV a couple of days ago. I went to a dancehall and was actually asked to dance! That's never happened before. The poor guy had to teach me lol.

Kiwi

make sure you are staying hydrated and getting your Protein in. You may have to increase both a bit. If it persists please call your Doc,

Happy for you new size.

I think it is awesome how well you are doing, Just don't forget to take care of you,

I have...it's Protein and Water related. Increase your protein and drink more water. Also, how many calories are you eating a day? Your body fights starvation hard.

I always struggle with calories :(. I hate to post cause I'm not doing so well. My goal is to make it over 300 calories a day. On a good day I'm getting 500. It could be Water which I slowed down on, I just keep sleeping and when I'm wake, I feel like I'm going to pass out and go back to sleep. Ughhhh

Yeah. In working my way towards picking between adding more Water of a Protein shake, cause I do not have room for both. I had a very hard time recovering from survey and take 3 different medications to help keep the food and Water down.

What a relief to hear you say your struggling with calories. I no longer feel alone. I'm the same way Kiwi!!! Nothing feels ok in my pouch, if I could just sleep away the next 2 years and have the lbs. melt off I so would!!! It's terrible but there are times when I make myself throw up because stuff in my pouch feels so awful. I can't believe I just disclosed that, but my daily goal right now is to eat 6 small Protein meals a day without making myself throw up =[

Ok so may our situations aren't that similar Kiwi, but you post prompted me to disclose my own issue. THANK YOU! Also, I know what I'm doing is bad, I'm going to support group but have yet to disclose my issue to either the group or my surgeon.

My surgery date: Aug 27th 2012

I also am going through the same issue, since my surgery,Aug27th, I am not hungry and any food in my pouch gives me nausea. I hate it I struggle every day to put food in my mouth.i eat once a day and I try to snack on cheese. I can't stomach the shakes. They make me sick. I know that I have to eat but I just don't like the feeling after:(

Ugh...so sorry you are struggling too =[

I hope you are taking your Vitamins? I haven't had any in weeks...I know, BAD! But I tried to take a multi today and it just made me feel worse. If I learn anything helpful I'll certainly post it.

Thanks guys! I was feeling like its just me. I often wait until I'm starving to eat. I can tell because I get a headache or a intense feeling of wanting to vomit. I'm scared I might pass out one day. The other thing that sucks is I find myself chewing food and spitting it back out. I hate the feeling of fullness.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
