Hi everyone,<br> It has been a long two months! I've had a lot of up and downs emotionally especially in the first month. I haven't had any real issues other than being extra tired I think because I lost my first 30 lbs in less than 3 weeks. Now that I'm losing a little slower I'm not at tired. I'm 2 months and 2 days post op. As of yesterday I have officially lost 50lbs! Start weight 230lbs. Current weight 180lbs. I have 40lbs to my goal!<br><br> <br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br> <br><br><br> -HL

Amazing I am 5 days post op and super sore

Wow...this is exciting....I'm close to 230 (227) my surgery is in June....I wanted to wait until school was out, so I would not take time off work and just to have the summer to get used to the new life style. It would be very exciting to start the new school year at 180....I hope I do as great as you....are you exercising as well?

I was technically 227 at the hospital scale. I think my home scale is off by a couple pounds but I'm just going with that. I'm excited for you!!! Good luck on your journey!!

Honestly.... I haven't exercised once!! I don't want to promote that... I know I need to and should be exercising but I'm always so busy with my 4 kids and everything else that by time I would get to exercising I'm just so tired!!! I figured that once I hit a real stall I will kick the exercising into gear. I've lost another 10 lbs so now I'm @ 170- 60lbs gone! It's amazing!! I do not eat a lot at all. I'm on full diet and should be at 1 cup food but I stick to between 1/2 cup- 3/4 cup a meal because I get full. I have "cheated" but after I get sick I don't eat that again!! I haven't gotten sick much though. I was worried the bypass didn't work because I wasn't getting sick!!! Obviously it has though. Lol

GL to you!!

I turned 30 on 5/4. This has been best b-day ever!!! I'm now 170. 60lbs GONE!!! As you can see from pics my arms don't have a lot of excess skin. Stomach skin is getting bad.... Plan to take care of that once I get to maintenance stage. My legs are good because they were always toned due to my high foot arches. (Other areas going south but nothing a little support doesn't fix :)

Do you workout??

Honestly... No. I don't workout. I am active during the day... Always moving, walking, up and down stairs but don't actually work out. Obviously working out will speed up the process and tone everything but I'm still loosing at a good rate so haven't started yet. I'm averaging 5lbs a week now.

In the beginning I dropped 30lbs super fast and was soooooo tired. I'm kind of scared to loose weight quicker (odd I know!) just because I had no energy then and don't want to feel like that again. My plan is when I hit a stall to add the work out. That should then hopefully kick the weight loss back in.

        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
