9 weeks out and I am down 40lbs. I feel like it should be more but as long as I'm losing that's all that matters.

Same here

I see my surgeon Fri and I'm kinda scared I havent done as well. I've lost 27lb and tomorrow is my 6 week mark. I've thought I was lower avg but today for whatever reason I have just been battling some serious blues. Feel I'm not progressing as much and just so tired all the time. My husband had foot surgery Fri and fell tonight ending back in the er. I've been worn out between hustling down hallways with patients all day and 2hr commute to work. My day seems to never end soon enough between cooking dinner and all the other things I think I barely have the time or energy for it must be done. Idk..just in a funky mood.

I think you're doing great. 27 lbs is good in 6 weeks if you ask me. Sorry for the funk. Seems like you are just plain overloaded! I couldn't imagine a 2 hr commute! Mine in 5 minutes if that. Hope things even out for you soon!

So we made it home after a night in the ER. I am taking tomorrow off as husb is gonna have to get in with his surgeon. I'm calling it a mental health day and gonna make him stay put and reduce the hopping around so no more crazy accidents. Thank Dorian :)

Im trying to set a personal goal for me.

I am going on vacation in the begining of August, so another 2 months.

I wanted to get to 208 before my vacation. Is this goal realistic? 26 pounds a month is about right.

Ive done amazing with my weight loss from surgery 6 weeks ago.. Its obviously going to slow down, but does this sound realistic?

Working my a** off!! Litterally.. lol ^_^

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
