Today is a good news/bad news kind of day.

The good news is I weighed myself and I only have 10 pounds left to my goal!

Bad news is I've been out if my ulcers meds for the last 2 days and I've literally thrown up everything I've eaten. I was hoping my ulcer had healed. I guess not. On my way to pick on the Rx now...

Continuing the slow downward much. I like looking at the grass on MyFitnessPal.com because the visual is better than the numbers a seen on the scale. You can see where my thyroid pooped out, lol!

I am about a week shy of being five months post op RNY. I have lost exactly 100 lbs since surgery date. Yesterday was not good and has me scared. I took my two kiddos to the movies and I nibbled on a a small popcorn and ate the whole thing. I also had a couple of licorice vines. I didn't get sick, but I haven't done that since surgery and it has me worried. I have tried to justify its by saying it was better than a large popcorn and an entire box of red vines. I was just so disappointed in myself. The process up to this point has been so difficult and I'm really seeing the results now. I don't want to compromise my success in any way. It made me realize that I can't wing it where food is concerned. I have to plan my Snacks. If I would have had some string cheese and apple slices in my bag I wouldn't have had the popcorn and licorice. It was a lesson learned.

        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
