Finally cleaned out. I have never had that much waste in me. I'm just glad I did not have to go into the ER.

Well six doses of miralax did not work yesterday. Two fleet enemas tonight. I just got done with my fifth trip to the bathroom. It felt like I gave birth to a Water melon.

Woke up today with the top of my foot swollen and very painful. I have had several stress fractures in my foot and am pretty sure that is what it is. Dont have a clue what I did to cause it though. My mom in law comes tomorrow and the grad party is next Saturday. I DO NOT have time to be in pain and down for the count! Its always something with me!

Remember, nobodys perfect...one day does not a failure make. Todays a brand new day. I don't rely on dumping....most people don't dump, but I don't take this as permission for a free for all. So you don't dump. Now you know. All the more reason to redouble you efforts to commit to the whole lifestyle change. I don't eat junk not because I'll dump, but because it's just that: junk. I want every bite I eat to count for good nutrition and better health. And if I do eat something not so good? I remember tomorrow is another day....it's a marathon,babe, not a sprint.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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
