Unfortunately I will be unable to complete this challenge as I was admitted to the hospital earlier this week with a medical emergency. I was bleeding internally and lost half of my blood supply due to an ectopic pregnancy that I was unaware of that ultimately ruptured my fallopian tube. I'm devastated as this is not the first time this has happened to me and now I am left with no tubes at all and can no longer have anymore children. I am blessed to have my daughter but it looks like she will be my one and only. It hurts because I had wanted to get myself healthy enough to be able to give her a sibling and now those dreams are crushed.

I'm out of this challenge as the IV fluids have caused me to gain a bunch of weight. I know it's not weight from fat and its only Water retention and it will go away. I'm hoping to be able to participate and complete the next challenge.

Oh no! That's traumatic. .I'm so sorry for your loss. My last pregnancy I was told it was possibly ectopic, so for 2 weeks I couldn't do a thing except check my temp every few hours. I managed to hold onto that baby until 32 weeks. She is now a healthy 5 year old starting kindergarten on Tuesday.

While the loss of both tubes can never be diminished, maybe this was part of a bigger plan for you.

Get yourself well honey. There will always be more challenges to join in once your healed up and ready for it!

So sorry to hear about your devastating loss Ree, prayers to you!

I've been substantially hungrier these days...yikes! Glad I didn't gain, but no change from last week.

Ree: I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you have plenty of loving support.

My final check-in for the Labor Day challenge is a head-scratcher: 155 lbs. How does one lose 8 lbs in one week? I must have been retaining Water like crazy. If this isn't a temporary anomaly, I have exceeded my goal for today by 8 lbs!

      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.
