I was having an awesome day when VERY STUPID ME decided oh I didn't weight my self on Monday at the doctors office let me weight my self today WEDNESDAY. I think I'm throwing out all the scales I have. I have a digital scale then I have a regular old fashion scale. Ok results mind you it's WEDNESDAY I'm having iced 711 cafe plus I had Breakfast. There is a huge difference in weight regardless of me eating. My scale at home is digital putting me at 105 pounds at the doctor office is 123 pounds that's 18 pounds difference. Do I feel smaller? Yes I'm wearing a size 00-0-1 and on TOM size 1-2 So I think I'm going to have to go according to the doctor scale of 123lbs because it's normal weight for me. I'm changing the weight once again on rny and fitnesspal. I want to be 115lbs so back again to 1200 calories & exercise.

Yeah it's crazy. The scale at home says 105 doctor office 123 like which one is accurate? So I decided to go with the doctor office scale.

Honestly, I would go with doctors because they are calibrated regularly where home scales never are. 123 is still super tiny and you have an adorable figure so who cares what the number id, right? :)

125 is my goal so it's great seeing someone crush that goal! I am 5'2" and small boned. Currently 204.

I agree. I just had a check up yesterday and weighed myself at home before I went. I was 2lbs less at the drs office. I'm going by theirs. I like that weight better. Lol

In the hospital and they weighed me in the bed. I freaked out! 14 lbs heavier? Then the nurse informed that that was with all blankets, pillows, clothes,etc. I even think my 15 lb purse was on the bed. They then posted my weight on the dry erase board in my room....how very sensitive of them!

Hilarious! I often write the patients weight on the board when they arrive, but in kilograms, nobody knows what it means , written in with vitals, bp, etc. we put it there so we dont lose it until we enter it into the computer. Then i erase it ... No one ever complained because its in kilograms. Guess i will have to remember that! LOL! I dont want my weight up there either even if it is in kilograms...

      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
