I found a great fitness app it's called jefit it's free. Just wanted to share.. makes exercising at home easy. It tells you how to do it. And you can pick the body part you want to focus on. Love it.

I have been very fortunate, while I was really sick in the beginning the last few weeks have been really good. So good I forgot how horrible it is to dump. What is strange is that it is almost always Protein Drinks that do it to me. Tonight it no exception... Blah.

So I haven't posted in awhile, and haven't been here in a few days.

My name is Juliana, I am 28 and live in Pensacola, FL. Born in New Orleans! I have been married 5 years and we have a beautiful 4 year old. she was born exactly 10 months from our wedding day. yes she is my honeymoon baby! I work retail for Lowe's and enjoy it very much. I am a certified VPK teacher, but as I make more money doing retail I decided to go back to that... I reached my highest weight last year at 298, and was astounded by the fact that I had let myself do so. But I decided that it was time to do something for me. So in October I began the journey and had surgery by April 4th! Now I am at 246 9 weeks out. And am adapting well. Though my marriage has hit a rocky patch right now, after finding some information out. (No need to get deep into that, heart ache)! I know things can work out. My parents are amazing and helped me with my surgery coat up front! As they have both had it I look at them as role models for me. I am sure there is more to my life but that is all for now.

Oh and I do stay busy volunteering with Girl Scouts. I have been a member of the organization for 23 years. Went all the way through as a girl and straight from high school to adults. Ready for my little girl to be in the program. Only one more year.

I haven't been brave enough to try salads yet. eggs and cheese do it to me every time, though. Of course, I forget that they don't agree with me and eat it and then feel like crud for a couple hours. They were a staple for me in the first 4weeks post-op. it's crazy how things change!

I think I have a pouch of steel. The only thing I have had problems with was a Power Crunch Protein bar. Made me have nausea. No puking though.

I am right there with you. There has not been a single thing that has given me problems. I have been able to do all meats, salads, fruits and even tiny portions of treats on rare occasion (my daughters birthday). I am so happy with how everything is turning out, I can't believe I waited so long to make my decision. I even actually went swimming with my girls and MIL this evening (in a swimming suit lol)

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
