I'm having some crazy PmS head hunger today. Was gonna go get some fresh shrimp at the seafood market today then it started raining and hubby & I started watching travel channel. Is been downhill since then. I've craved BBQ,hamburgers, coleslaw, ribs, collard greens, potato salad, Mac & cheese, fried okra,banana pudding, peach cobbler.....I'm a southern girl..there's a reason I got fat!! Luckily I may crave or think I want this stuff but I get to where I don't want to eat or nothing tastes good. Bizarre! Only thing I've enjoyed eating lately is a bacon Tomato sandwich. I think I'd be in trouble if I liked eating again and if I didn't have my small punch. Watched YouTube videos to keep me grounded and focused on the long picture today.

Getting chopping pork shoulder tonight. Prob won't eat a bite or 2 but maybe will satisfy the head hunger of BBQ. Gonna do the sauce on the side. Maybe a tbsp won't kill my tummy. Call it the pre pms weakness. Hubby didn't like it but told him I had to turn the channel!!

Omg so I was looking through some weight charts and they all listed my weight as being overweight instead of obese. Wow to go from morbid obesity to overweight feels amazing !

Yay for being overweight! Good for you. Weird to say huh? Who would think that being overweight would make someone happy? But when your coming from where we were, it is a great accomplishment!

I've redefined the definition of insanity..now it's waking up 3hrs before your alarm for work goes off and being wide awake. 4 am I was still awake and snacking on cheese.< /p>

With the carafate and zantac i dont have the razor blade feeling in my pouch anymore. I still have no desire to eat. I could care less. I do nibble on vegetables from the garden.

Excited this morning. Got on the scale and I have lost 66 lbs and have 58 to go to reach my goal. I have lost more than I have left to lose. Here's to hoping the next 16 weeks will be as successful as the first 16.

      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
