I keep thinking I haven't really lost anymore weight since that picture back in August. I lost about 20lbs after that but put about 6 back on. But I can tell I'm a lot smaller now than I was in that picture. I've packed on a bunch of muscle since then. I hate that it messes up the number on the scale but I'm loving how defined my arms and legs are. Don't get me wrong, they're still covered in saggy skin but I have a bunch of muscle too.

I'm at a bit over 100lbs lost and I'm currently right at 200lbs. I'm a 12 in bottoms and a m/L on top.

Taco seasoning as no sugar and 3 carbs per serving. You wouldn't even eat a whole service with this recipe, or you could leave the taco seasoning out. Salsa has 2 sugars and 2 carbs. As I said my husband eats his with a tortilla or chips. What do you eat? Plained boiled chicken 24/7?

It's almost impossible to avoid all sugars and wouldn't be healthy or even doable to avoid all carbs. You do what you want to do, but this isn't a chocolate chip cookie recipe, it's a healthy, easy, almost pure Protein.

Nope - don't eat plain boiled chicken 24/7 - make my own sauces at home instead of pouring them out of a bottle! Takes maybe 30 mins more of your time in the kitchen! ;)

Tacos/Nachos are a complete and strict no no! :)

It's not impossible to go sugar free - you need to want to do it! And that is how I've lost 101 pounds in 5 months! Cheers! :)

The doctors recommend that you use salsa for spices. Nothing wrong with that. That recipe sounds delicious!

This past year has been amazing. I have plenty of loose skin yes but I am getting toned up witch has helped some with the skin. My hair has stated to finally get better and my weight has began to go up a lil only by like 3lbs and my trainer says it is muscle not fat so for me not to worry Just messes with my head alil but I have to remember muscle weighs more than fat. I am really loving my new body and cant wait for the summer o show it off. Hope everyone is doing just as great.

        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
