Amanda. Congrats. That's amazing. I've been sleeved three weeks. Can you share what you eat, how often, how much and any exercises you may perform.

I need to exercise more! I use the elliptical 3 times a week but I need to increase that up to 5 days a week and go longer. I'll be honest, I don't eat much at all. Around 800 calories a day. My biggest issue is beer. I am not suppose to drink anything for a year and I've drank several times. It's empty calories!!! Ugh.

Just came from my 3 month post-op appt. I'm down 52lba since surgery on 12/17/13. I actually just started out working with a trainer last week, after not working out the first three months. I know it's time for me to get myself on track with my exercise but I am still proud of my weightloss thus far.

Lol. Yes beer is empty calories but they have low cal ones. Do you get drinker quicker? I heard you do. I'm working out 3-4 days per week but mine seems to be coming of so slowly. I see inches coming off but the scale isn't reflecting that. I don't eat much either so one would think the weight would be coming off more. Any suggestions?

I'm down 71 as of this morning. The only suggestion I have is be consistent. Chose what you eat very wisely, ESP since you can't eat much. I get into habits where I eat the same thing. For months I have eaten one can of chicken noodle Soup. It fills me up and is low in calories! I thought I would be sick of soup after that liquid diet but I still love it. It doesn't hurt my stomach.

I've been walking and lifting weights and eating hardly nothing. I get in plenty of liquids though. I feel it's stalling. I thought the first few months it came off quickly. In three weeks I'm only down ten pounds. Am I doing something wrong?? I see inches melting away but the scale is on slow motion.

        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!

      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
