I work in the city of Irving. Live in the Keller area. Been in Texas for about 10 years now and still discovering it's vastness. I am 11 weeks out and am down 68lbs since preop liquid diet. Have good weeks and bad weeks in loss. Averaging 4-6lbs per week. I would love for it to be higher but every bit helps.

I'm about 100 miles away, we shop in Dallas a lot. And go to and from the DFW airport several times a year. If you were there this weekend we could've met up :(

Wow. I hate that we couldn't meet up. So sad. Maybe another time. ????

Girls!!!! I'm officially down 60 pounds!!!

Jen- holy sh!t, I hope your mom is/will be ok!

I wish we all lived closer and could work out and get skinny together! I also wish I was in Texas because I'm sure it's WAY warmer than it is here.

Hi all. My mom will be alright. She has had ten surgeries on one knee so that knee is very fragile. She sees her orthopedic surgeon tomorrow. Her left foot's X-ray looks awful. They think its a torn ligament. Poor thing. Ultimately we are grateful she is okay but I fear for her poor knee and worry she won't be able to walk again. She's been on crutches and in a wheel chair ever since the accident on Sunday.

I'm glad she's going to be okay, even if it's a long road to recovery. How did the person who hit her manage to do such a thing?!

You sure are! We're kicking fats as5, and not backing down. We may be slow losers, but we're losing. And that's all that matters. <3

Haven't been on in a while. Down 48 lbs since highest weight. Very happy. Had my 8 week appointment with the surgeon last Friday. He is pleased with my loss and I was very happy with that.

My battle has been heartburn. Have to make sure I take meds everyday for it. Working out 4-5 times a week. Hope everyone is well!

Jen, I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to your mom! That's terrible!

I weighed in yesterday for the last time with the Biggest Loser competition at my work! Exactly 50 lbs down from first weigh in and 15% body weight lost! I hope I won! Winner gets $500! With the wedding coming up May 31st, I sure could use it! Lol!

I have my 9 week post op appt today with my surgeon. Can't wait to see what she has to say!

I hope everyone has a great day!

McKinney is pretty close. Some of my coworkers live out in that area.

Jen I am very sorry to hear about your mom she will be in my thoughts on her road to recovery.

So happy to hear about everyone's success. I agree we may be slow losers but on the right track to keeping it off completely!

        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
