St. Patrick's Day Challenge



Recommended Posts

These challenges have really helped me stay on track-thank you Bea for everything.

start weight -142.4

goal weight -139

Seems small goal but I am at the point of 1/2 pound a week is a good week. I have my 1 year surgeon appointment a few days after St Patricks Day and I so want to be in the 130s when I see my surgeon. He is tough to please! Strange how I want to please this stranger.

Today 184. Have been stalled, gained and lost and stalled again. But I am in reach of the surgeon's goal and it would love to buy a green dress in a smaller size for St. Patrick's Day. So let's be ambitious here and say 172.

My starting weight for this challenge is 211.0. I'm still in the stall that I ended the Valentine's Day challenge in, but despite that, and despite the short length of this challenge, in going to set my goal at 199.0. Because of the stall, I know that might be a little ambitious, but I'm hoping to break this stall and have a banner loss. Fingers crossed!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
