Today is 10 weeks from my surgery date on April 2nd. Just got on the scale before my shower and I have lost 50 lbs. Yay! That makes me happy!! :D

This is great! My surgery date was 4/2 as well and I'm down 49 pounds!!

My youngest son graduates in a few hours, I have a new outfit and I feel good......life is grand

I can't wait to read more of everyone's success stories.

I ate 8 potatoe chips and feel like i cheated myself. 8 is better than a bag i guess. Will start fresh tomorrow!

I sometimes eat a few but it is what it is like you said better then a whole bag

I originally started out in this group because my surgery was originally scheduled for 4/29' date=' since it was rescheduled for 5/20 I moved to the May group but I wanna come back here of you guys don't mind please. I still read April's section every day.[/quote']

Of course!! I love this group. I feel like I have so much in common with everyone. Usually someone can relate and everyone is always supportive!

I have only thrown up one time in 10 weeks. But I really have felt sick to my stomach all day!

      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!

      Hiο»ΏΒ 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 myο»ΏΒ mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and eο»Ώxcited. 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’mο»Ώgoing 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 healthyΒ food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!ο»ΏSomeone 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.ο»Ώ

        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
