My weight loss seems to be the same way.

I really need to do 2 things.... walk more and stop stepping on the scale! Of course, exercise was always a problem for me before surgery, I don't know what I thought would change after surgery.

I am only allowing myself to weigh once a week. For the Friday weigh in thread. That's it. It's hard but I don't want to be taunted with the numbers game. I'm really struggling with exercise. It's 100+ degrees so I haven't been walking my babies. I have a treadmill that got buried by my ex during my surgery. Must find another way to work out!

Didn't realize til after I made it and drank it that my Breakfast smoothie had 19g sugar. Thanks, My Fitness Pal. It's been like 45 minutes and I'm not sick, hopefully that means I'll be ok.

I went to Water aerobics this morning! I am so freakin' proud of myself! I have been saying I needed to do it for some time, and just didn't push myself. Thanks goes to my very supportive friend who convinced me to get up and go!

I went back to the YMCA this week. I do 30 mins on elliptical and 30 on treadmill. Not pushing myself too hard but get about 4.5 miles in a day. My hiney hurts... Haha

I was told once all my incisions were completely healed with no scabs I could take a bath or swim. They said about a month out.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
