Someone needs to come pick up my scale!! I'm only 9 days post op and I keep weighing myself!! I like what I'm seeing, but I don't want to be a person that needs to see the numbers. I haven't seen my surgeon yet and I'm not sure how off my scale is compared to his and I don't want to set myself up for disappointment either... That's my rant for the day..lol

what is your neighbors phone number I will have them come and get it and only give it back to you on Fridays LOL.

I usually only weigh on Monday and Fridays.

I have a sister who ways every time she pees I think, she is obsessed worse than any of us could be and she hasn't had (or ever will have, acoording to her, wls) she is just always on some radical diet or another, As many crazy things she has done, it makes wls seem kinda mild. Right now I think she is doing HCG injections.

I completely understand. I weigh daily, probably at least 3 times per day but usually more. My doctor did tell me he does not want me to weigh myself except at his office but that is not going to happen. I am definitely a slave to the scale right now I am almost 6 weeks out.

I weigh every time I step foot in the bathroom, no matter the reason! And I write it all down, too! It's a great food replacement therapy I think lol my brother is in pharmaceutical sales and is getting me one of those fancy digital one like at the dr's office. I can't wait!!!

I didn't own a scale until after Christmas, but I have managed to stay off of it. My main reason for having the surgery was for better health and the weight loss is the added bonus. Right now I am obsessing with the health. I notice so much every single day.....that is reward enough, for now!

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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
