Potpieiii-if you are like more I had some pretty tight clothes, especially jeans so I'm still not seeing too much difference after 26 pounds. It will come! I am now seeing a difference in my underwear lol

Sleeves 10/24

I'm doing great, no trouble with getting in my Protein and my fluids. I'm using Premier Protein chocolate. I usually pour it in my shaker bottle, add 4-6 oz of Water and a scoop of Protein Powder so it then has 55 grams of Protein and I drink half in the morning, half in the afternoon.

My nurse advanced me to puréed on Thursday and now I feel like I'm starving all the time. I didn't have hunger before on liquids.

Have you done any measurements with a tape? It's the strangest thing…my hips are down 1 inch, bust is the same, but my waist is down 3 inches. So no real difference in clothes despite 20 lbs lost.

Surgery date 10/21/13

Before weight : 266

Current weight : 252

Been at 252 since a week out but also that time of month is here is that makes a difference. Haven't had many issues since surgery able to eat well sometimes I get concerned that I can eat too well if that makes sense. Excited for the new me! Still taking pain meds at least once a day would like to quit taking but they help me through the day so I am not so uncomfortable and able to do housework .

      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.
