Maybe more vigorous exercise? How are you feeling, Dori? Is exercise even a possibility with your surgery? I can swim or walk gently, that's about it. I know it would help me lose.

Can walk and that's all. Still on no bending or twisting restrictions. With the weather I haven't been doing anything. I do my walk away the pounds Dvd some days but I want to get outside and go! I KNOW that would help the stall! ;)

I need help getting back on track. Since my niece died, I'm either eating all the time or nit eating at all..had two sessions with cake. I'm tracking what I eat today, it's a start. I now weigh 177... 120 lbs down, and my skin us sooo disgusting. I have no ass( never did), but it's just wrinkly skin. Can't see my belly button. Boobs down to my knees. Feeling like I don't want anyone to see me, especially not my husband. I guess I needed to vent.

Hugs!! Love u!!

Ok so here is my update. I had told u guys we were moving and getting sent from FL to CO. Ok so we sold our house but weren't set to leave til Jan cause that's when the military was sending us. We spent 6 weeks in a tiny rental condo as we sold our house and had to get out and we spent the holidays between family. We left FL about 2 weeks ago and went to see my family and came to KY to see his kids and take em on a ski trip. Tomorrow we leave and head to CO. It's been totally exhausting for the last 2 months and although we weren't truly homeless we were transients and I can't wait til we find a house in CO and I can have the movers deliver all of our things! I want my bed!! Right now I think I'm struggling with a bit of depression from all that's been going on and the reality of the life change. I've not checked my weight on the scales in awhile so no idea how I am weight wise even tho I feel I might be ok. I'm usually kinda upbeat but I'm struggling. I'm going bald! I have my bald patch I try to hide and I'm down to about a 1/3 of my hair. Over all I think it's all gonna be ok. Gotta get settled and the stress outta life and find a new job when we get into where ever we will live. I did my challenge of skiing and I can say I hated it. Learned a lot about a lot also!

Hope y'all are doing well. Love u guys all!!

My 8 month was on the 21st. Still at 132lbs total lost. Stuck at 208 for a long time now. Have been also having some back and leg pain again lately which doesn't help. Am laying around more. Can't wait to feel at least 80% and for the weather to get better so I can get out and walk! Hope everyone is doing well!! Hugs!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
