I just really followed the directions to a T. I don't drink any calories unless it is fat free or low fat milk and stay away from carbs and snacking. Portion Control is important to me so my pouchie won't stretch!

How much did you weigh on your surgery date?

I'll be 5 months on Jan 13th and only lost 50 pounds. Am I doing something wrong?

Congrats to you!! Way to go!!

I was 286 in surgery date. I doubt you are doing anything wrong, some just lose slower which is great for your skin btw! Mine is getting loose :(

That's amazing ladies...Congrats!! :) How are you doing that so consistently? What is your diet like each day? (Foods, total calories, Proteins, etc) Are you working out? If so, what are you doing and how often? Any issues with sagging skin? Thanks in advance for the tips. I'm only 3 weeks out, but I'd be over the moon to lose 100 pounds in 6 months!!! :)

I usually have a Greek yogurt for Breakfast and Soup or cottage cheese with cucumbers for lunch. dinner is pork tenderloin or chicken breast marinated and cooked in the crock pot or steamed seafood with steamed veggies (a little bit). If I ever snack it is apple with PB, berries, or string cheese. The only time I drink something with calories is skim milk or my morning coffee with Creamer. I NEVER drink anything else with calories. Avoid carbs!!!!!

Really walking for about 20 mins twice a week is all the exercise I do but it's time to kick it up a notch because e weight loss is slowing down. Loose skin is happening on the upper arms, inner thighs, and belly but not really that bad and totally worth it. I'll get a Tummy Tuck later this year to fix it :)

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
