Recommended Posts

Hrhlaurie - so we are the same height. I haven't seen 150lbs since 8th grade and I am almost 46!! Is it weird that my doc and I never discussed goal weight, weight loss amount, anything like that? I just feel like I have no idea what the different weights are like so I will know when I get there!!

Well, he only mentioned it at my 2 week check up. His first goal for me is 40 pounds in first 3 months. He didnt tell me toget to 150, just that I might want to stay above 150.

Hey everyone.

All is well on my end, an I'm excited to be on this journey with you all. I was sleeved May 28th an I'm down 23 lbs from day of surgery. I was loosing then I grained 3 lbs back but I think because it's my TOM (I no TMI)

Also my 2 week follow up is in the morning so I will post how that goes tomorrow. Hopefully he will clear me to be able to work out am do more than walk. My arms are jiggly an want to stop that before it gets bad!

Good night everyone;)

I'm 2 weeks post op tomorrow and I've lost 10kg as of today I think that's about 20 pounds? I'm excited and can start seeing small differences it's awesome!!!! I can't wait to lose more

I'm on mush food which is kind of hard for me as I don't know how to eat healthy like this .. I just keep eating mashed potato - dr said one more week of mashed and then I can move to normal food just be careful

I don't get much post op feedback from my dr so I'm making an appt with a dietician on Sunday to see if she can guide me I don't want to mess up for lack of information you know

I spent a few days at 237 and now a couple of days at 236 so not sure why the major slow down. I'm putting away my scale amd only going to weigh once a week on Fri morning from now on. Seeing Nut today so maybe she'll have some ideas for letting my metabolism up.

I went to my post-surgery doctor appt yesterday. He said it was just a response to the anesthesthia and will go away. It may take another week or two. I did transition to pureed (yuch) foods yesterday and having something more substantial helped with energy and thinking.

Hi. My Dr. never talked about a goal weight. He just he wants our bmi out of the unhealthy range. So for me that's anything under 150. I'm 213 today. 63 lbs to go. It doesn't seem unrealistic for the first time in long long time.

Everyone has lost so much since surgery. I've only lost 11 pounds and the scale hasn't moved in four days. I trust the process and I'm getting all my Fluid and about 70g of Protein a day, but I just hope I'm not one of those really slow losers...

Habsi what can you eat now as we all had surgery the same week but all our diets seem to be At different phases. I have a scrambled egg with asparagus And shred cheese around 6am then usually yogurt around 9 then lunch of deli sliced chicken and a string cheese at noon then some snack around 2 or 3 and dinner may be egg muffin or a shake or something. It depends on where I am with my Protein. I throw a shake in there where I need to. I went back to work this week and have walked 10,000+ steps a day - my goal is to do that a MINIMUM of 5 days a week. Hope that helps.

      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.
