I only eat Protein, and some streamed veggies-but not very often. But that's my protocol from my surgeon.

Do any of u guys have the medical alert Bracelet? I've been thinking more and more about it after my surgeons nurse told me it would be a good idea. She said we really needed to make sure emergent personnel didn't try to do a blind ng tube I'm case of an emergency as it could cause internal bleeding and damage the spleen. I'm back & forth about it. I know at kinda a good idea and then I have the idea of having to feel like I'm advertising. Thoughts???

I've been looking at some pretty ones and I'm surprised how fat they have come from the big bulky ugly types I remember. I am gonna get on as well I think.

Had my 3 month follow up today! Super positive! CW is 242.6. Loss since surgery that is 54 lbs. waist is down 10 inches! And BMI is down as well! Looking at the numbers I am totally shocked and excited! My doctor says I am exactly where I need to be in weight loss! They want patients 3 months out to be 25-30% down to their goal and I am killing it! I love my weight management doctor! He is so sweet and positive!

Thanks for letting me share!

I dont eithdr and I was a huge chocolate lover. Now sometimes a yogurt is too sweet. I love it.

I'm loving it too! My kids are like why aren't you eating chocolate anymore. I use to eat it all the time. Several times a day. This is great

Had to share...after years of bring told "You have such a pretty face" I was told this afternoon.."You are beautiful Alaina" totally at random by 2 people who recently saw me. Totally brings me to tears telling this. All of this journey once again felt worth it. I'm sorry I'm such a sap but this touched me deeply in so many parts where all that self hate is being peeled away.

That is amazing. Made my day to read 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.
