I was up this morning, but still made my goal. It is to be expected that having surgery would give me a bump this week. Oh well!

Goal 195

Today's weight: 194.6

Thanks Bea! These are super motivating :-D

Current weight 295.8 lbs. Starting weight 305 lbs Goal for St. Patty's Day 293 lbs. Missed my goal by 2.8 lbs. Not bad considering I hit a stall for most of this last week. Not what I hoped for, but I'll take it.

I have lost 11.2 lbs on the challenge. Now down to 213.8 from 225 when we started. I was shooting for 209 I think...So I got close. And 11 lbs in a month or so I think is pretty good...the walking is helping a lot!!

I am assuming the next challenge will begin on Sunday! That is if Bea's final decision is to have challenges end on the actual holiday! Thanks, Bea, for making this weight loss business a bit more fun!

I'm running a bit behind, it seems, but finally have the introduction to the Easter Challenge posted (http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/301321-easter-challenge/).

Weigh-ins will be on SUNDAYs for this one, or whatever day of the week works best for you, individually (smile). Yes...we're flexible. :-)

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
