December 2013 Sleever Pounds Lost Log



Recommended Posts

HW 320

CW 283.5

Seems like I stall for two days then lose two pounds, then repeat. That's a cycle I can deal with. :)

I'm still in my stall since the 13th of January. I was watchn the end of Wendy Williams show today n she had Dr. Ian on there promoting his shred diet. He actually stated that during the 3 rd week most all people will either stall or weightloss slows down. So evn on non surgical diets, if u will, the body still responds the same. So that made me feel pretty cool knowing that its just the way the body works, not just bc we had wls! Just thot I'd share that. Gla, n gr8 numbers:)) God Bless.

Still much slower in coming off and it is a bit disappointing. I am telling myself it is because of no exercise and hope that really is the reason. Only 11 more days until hip replacement surgery and then therapy and exercise can start in full.

It has been a 2 year journey of increasing pain to finally have this hip surgery done. I think back to all of the ways my life became more and more limited during this time and wonder how I let it go for so long before getting something done. I haven't been out for a day of shopping, for a visit to a museum, on a trip that included walking or even a comfortable visit to the grocery store in 10 months. And this inactivity only led to weight gain during this time.

It was actually preparing for this surgery that opened up the door to VSG for me. My Ortho said he would not do the surgery until I lost some weight and he suggested having this procedure. So I'm grateful beyond belief and am so ready to get this final piece done.

I have really stepped out and given myself what I truly need to get "me" back. I have taken leave from my job since November to concentrate on myself. I used to travel across country every other week (airport walking was a killer) and my company accommodated me by having an apartment for me out there. It took me a while to realize they weren't really doing this for me but for them! I was a compliant workaholic.

So I am taking all the time I need, without pressure, to focus on what is best for me. And it's not been easy to place myself first. I have replaced all of the emails that were generated by my job with emails about your postings here. What a positive change! Your encouragement, success stories, challenges have all provided me with the support I need and I appreciate each and every one.

Thanks for being here and being a non-judgmental group of people. Only 11 more days (with hopefully a few more pounds gone) and then BRING IT ON!

        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
