Down to 199! I might not make goal but breaking through to ONEderland is such a great feeling! Haven't seen that in nearly 10 years!

AWESOME! At 228 I am still chasing ONEderland and will be for a few more weeks. But I am THRILLED that you reached it this week! Way to go!!!

Today's weight = 197.4.

Down 1.2 lbs and at my Thanksgiving goal!

Just hoping to maintain through next week, as I'll be on vacation with the in-laws all week.

BIG YAY for meeting your Thanksgiving goal this week! AWESOME!

I had a 4 pound loss this week pushing me through to my Turkey Day goal today!! 190 I made it!!

This is such a great way to keep us accountable and I too love checking in to see everyone's progress! :)

Bea are you setting up a new one...... :D

Congrats on reaching your TDay goal! Awesome!

And yes, I've already set up a new one. I'll post a separate description and link here so everyone can find it. (I find this new site to be a little more challenging in easily seeing what topics are being discussed in the VSG group.)

I've gone ahead and set up a new challenge. It is set up to report in on WEDNESDAYS and begins the day before Thanksgiving and ends on New Year's Day.

Everyone is doing SO GREAT in this challenge, I can't wait to see some of the big changes that go on as we move into the new year! Hope you'll all join us!

WH 250

started at 247

Sw 236

Cw STILL 220

don't think I'm gonna make my goal of 210... but who knows what the week will bring? I'm only 4 weeks out and this early anything can happen! So while it's a little early I think I will postpone that goal to Christmas and ask Santa for new jeans :)

        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
