I have increased my Protein Shakes to 4 or 5 per day bcuz I can't tolerate enough food. Now, I am not losing any weight for past 3 wks. Ugh. So frustrating. I seriously need a new doc. I was never told to count calories but it seems everyone else is doing so. Thankfully, all of you have great info. Thanks!!

I'm embarrassed to say.. I can eat all my Protein but I'm lazy AND I love my shakes so I drink them for Breakfast and dinner. At the end of the day I'm at about 80+ grams of protein.

Ok well I feel a little better knowing its not just me stalling out :) my 6 month checkup is next week on the 10th. My surgeon retired (military) so I get to meet one of the new surgeons coming on board. I hope everything goes well. I go in for my six month labs tomorrow. :) hope everyone gets past this crazy stall!

      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.
