Down 26lbs in 23 days yay me



Recommended Posts

Hello support family I just wanted to say that I'm the happiest person on earth right now, I've been doing good. I had a few adjustments at the beginning but I'm good now. My intake is small sometimes I struggle to get all my Protein in but the results OMG I'm amazed at my progress and the change in my figure. I'm able to successfully walk up a flight of stairs and still have my breath, no longer diabetic this surgery was good for me & god has been good to me in my recovery as well. When I figure out hob t post a picture I will. I have a new attitude and I like it yay me. Hope everyone has been well I'm very excited about my future.

You are my doppelganger! lol We both started out almost the same weight (I was 236 at the start of preop diet and my goal is 150, too)....and I'm just two weeks post-op. I'm SO feeling good about my progress (and yours!) and know it will only get better once I can do more hardcore exercise.

I am no longer diabetic either! Surgeon took me off Metformin the day after surgery. I had what you call "Dawn Syndrome" where my sugar was only a little high in the morning (135-145). My sugar this morning was 95! Perfectly normal! Am still on mild dosage of high BP meds but I suspect in 20 more lbs., I 'll be off them, too! So I will have replaced a couple of crappy meds with a TON of Vitamins instead! :o lol

Keep up the great work everyone!

      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
