U are all correct in the advice u r sending my way.i think I am just really struggling because of my cycle. The first time I had my cycle came with that stomach virus that was going around and I ended up on my bathroom floor for about three days. Had to go be put on an IV at the hospital and was throwing up everything including Water...needless to say I did not have any cravings that time lol. Now I feel as though every PMS symptom is hitting me twice as hard especially the cravings and I feel like I am so close to cracking!! But I don't want to! I know those foods are what got me here in the first place and I definitely don't want to turn back!!! I have about 20lbs till I'm at my goal weight and I wanted to go clothes shopping to take my mind off of the eating part but I feel like it will be a waste of money if I'm just going to lose another 20 lbs!! Anyways I'm sorry if I offended anyone on here. I think the bitchyness overtook my body for a bit and I took it out on here!! I know this is a difficult process and I honestly wish everyone the best of luck and I sincerely hope everyone reaches their goal weight and is able to maintain!!!

We all have bad days (or a bad few days when it's that time!). What if instead of shopping - since you seem like you want to save it for when you meet goal- you did something else for yourself? Maybe get a manicure or pedicure, take someone with you on a walk in a park, go to a comedy show and laugh. But kudos to you for recognizing that it's probably your cycle that's messing with you. It'll pass before you know 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.

      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
