Hi I am 3 months out and like you I can only eat about 3 bites! I am rarely hungry, I have craving and I am not afraid to satisfy them! I eat so little of anything anyway! I am now starting to experience some Hair loss which is a bummer since I have thin hair anyway!!!

The reason I ask is because I I'm 5'2 and my starting weight was almost the same as you. 225 and I wish to have the same results as u but I'm two months out and I'm at 185 so far ( I'm not complaining, I love my results so far).. Just curious what do you eat on a daily basis?

2.5 months out and I eat a lot. Around 1000-1200 calories which scares me because the norm is supposed to be 600-800 cals. I went from 244 to 201 in about 10 weeks though.

It's hard to not compare ourselves to others. As others have said everyone loses weight differently. Don't be to hard on yourself when you see others drop faster.

I eat between 659-900 calories a day. No bread no Pasta and I only drink Water and sometimes the low cal Gatorade. Lots of fruits and veggies and lots of fish, chicken and lots of eggs, mainly egg whites. I weigh all my food and I log all my food on myfitnesspal. If you have a myfitnesspal feel free to friend me :) myfitnesspal name is ruthiecoyne

My food diary is public. Feel free to message me anytime too on myfitnesspal

I allow myself to eat on occasion a special treat if I'm craving something last night I had a small slice of pizza. I try walking for exercise but exercise is what I struggle with.

I thought it was going to be another "diet" too! Congrats on the weightloss! We have to remember that sometimes there will be weeks that our weight doesn't move but we have to keep positive!

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
