Congrats to you all! Im also at my lowest I have been in years at 235lbs. I've been at a stall now for like a month... :-( saw my dr yesterday, going to. Be having a CT of my abdomen because I been having a lot of issues with my stomach and they want to be sure nothing is going on in there... Ahh anyways hope everyone is doing good. Still in a size 18 pants and a XL to 1XL shirts. Dwn from a size 24 and 3-4xl shirts... I've lost over 100lbs from my highest weight. And about 70lbs since surgery... 4months post op it's crazy thinkin this way. Hoping by February I'll be dwn another 30-40lbs fingers crossed anyways lol how's everyone feeling?

Congrats to everyone!!????????

I spoke to a friend who had a bypass 8 years ago and stalls are normal. My scale finally started moving again. I'm at the lowest point I've been my entire teen and adult life. My highest weight this year was 227. I'm at 172 as of this morning. Still only 42 pounds down since surgery day, but now the scale is moving down again I'm feeling much better.

I'm sorry. It will kick back in. it may be ur not having enough Protein. I no I get slower wen I slack up on the protein n Water. Which its hard to get all my fluids in. but keep patient, it will com off. :)

I hear you, mzshay. I've been stalled for a month, too. If I think about it too hard I start freaking out and thinking what I need to try to get out of it or whatever. Maybe it's normal at this stage. Whatever it is I'm sick of it messing with my head. Going to try to eat as balanced as I can, enjoy some veggies, some fruit, drink a Protein Shake if I can't get it all in, and stop stressing. This is so not easy.

I will agree it is harder than I thought it would be. The parade was today n yes I had 3 pieces of candy. I feel. Gulity now. Watever I do I don't go over my 1200 calories. I stay between 850-1200 more my carbs r a little to high sometimes. So I usually lose about 11/2#a week. During Thanksgiving none! Stalls are the Pitts .

May u all can trick ur body for a few days n count calories n don't worry about shakes or Protein or carbs. Then once u trick ur body into a jump start then u can go back too Wat ur suppose to.. I no its frustrating :((

      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
