Well got on the scale today and i finely broke the 270 lb mark it was just a .8lb loss but I will take it! I been stuck at 270+ for a month (forever for me) now, hopefully it will start coming off more so I can hit my goal 29.4lbs more to lose. I been walking long speed walks from 3-4 miles 4 x a week weather permitting, cold doesn't bother me but iced up roads and sidewalks does, but i still get out and walk but at a slower pace and not as far but a longer time. The big part is keeping standing up, you seem to work your core more trying to keep your balance . Every one of you are a inspiration to me and Thankyou for your post.

Congrats! you inspire me to stay on target! the ice and snow not to mention the bitter cold has limited my range also....come on spring!

For the first time I have to agree on come on Spring! I always loved the winter but without the extra insulation on my body I got cold. Yes it's been cold out this year but I've never got cold until now, I went out and bought a kerosine heater to cut down on the electric and add more heat in the living room. 2 years ago if some said to me I'd be sitting in the living room at 85° I would of laughed. But I like the new me better... Lol

Omg I thought I was the only one!! I was freaking out earlier this week cause I haven't lost anything in over a month. I thought it was cause I was cheating a bit but I've been bouncing between the same 6 lbs for what seems like forever. Thank god I'm not the only one!! Makes me feel so much better. I was getting depressed thinking I was screwing up or sabotaging myself. Fingers crossed that the scale moves for all of us really soon! I've got 20lbs left

I have been stalling for a month and a half at least. Lost track!

Thanks all!! I think stepping up my workouts helped. I'm now doing weight training 3 to 4 times a week. It takes me about 40 minutes to get thru that and I also increased the amount I am lifting for legs and arms. After that, I am doing 30 mintes of cardio; either walking at a 6% incline or elliptical. On my non weight training days I do a full hour of cardio. I haven't changed anything with food because I felt like that was clean. I'm hoping this was the kick I needed. :)

I think that is EXACTLY what I need to do as well. I just keep waiting for the weather to mellow out a bit, but I may still be waiting in April, so I think I am just going to have to suck it up and do it !

I am an outdoor girl too. Usually in florida this time of year is pleasant. This year the weather has been terrible! I can't wait for spring. Although it is supposed to be 72 on Saturday. I guess I can't complain too much. ;)

It was 31 today tho. They even closed schools. Don't laugh, we cant deal with it and it was icy rain all day. Yes, we aren't a hardy bunch. Lol

72? That would be heavenly! We might hit close to 40 today. :-p. After all the bitter cold days we've had 40 will be a treat! I sure hope February is better than January, but it's usually not! Oh well, February is a short month...

72! 40! Today we might hit 20, and we are excited!! Tomorrow we will be back to negative temps. I am in Minnesota.

Today is my birthday and the scale finally moved for me! I cheated quite a bit yesterday, and I am planning that I will be off today and tomorrow, so I am prepared for the scale to pop back up. But at least I know that once I am back on track on Monday, that scale WILL drop again! Best BIRTHDAY I have had in a very long time!

Happy birthday!!! I have friends up in rochester, Minnesota and they tease me about how I am with the cold in florida. When I travel up there for business I stay in the tunnels and avoid going outside in the winter. 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.

      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
