For those of you with mid-Jan surgery dates, what are your portion sizes like these days? My surgeon is telling me that I am not progressing the way I should be and thinks I am actually starving myself. I can't help but wonder what the rest of you are doing portion-wise!

Also I have not really gone down sizes. I've lost almost 70 lbs and I have gone down only one size possibly two. Size 24 to 22 or 20. The 22 is a little loose.

I had surgery in December. I eat between 600-700 calories a day. I had to up my Protein to 80-90g a day. I started having hair loss when getting the set minimum of 60g. I went from a size 22-12 now. People make remarks that I'm wasting away, I'm so skinny. But I still have 20 lbs to go before I'm at the high range of my height/weight ratio.

I would like to be able to get to 130, I dropped my goal from 140.

      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.
