I weigh everyday, because then I know immediately if I am gaining. I also got an Aria scale awhile ago, so now I weigh myself on the scale I've had since the start, and write it down on my calendar like I have everyday for years, but then I also weigh myself on the Aria scale which syncs to MyFitnessPal. Sometimes if I'm feeling either extra thin or extra fat i'll weigh myself at other points during the day, but first thing in the morning, totally naked, every single day, is how I am able to best keep my weight on track.

I weigh myself every morning and night. I know obsessive but I have to to make myself accountable. I am almost 22 mos post op and will continue to do so lifelong, that is just me. It works for me.

My doctor told me daily...,but I prefer weekly...I pick one day a week and make that my weight day...I think after I hit my goal weight I will check it daily to keep tabs that I don't slip up

Glad I'm not the only one. I try not to weigh every day. I try to make myself go a couple days in between. Sometimes it happens and sometimes I sneak on the scale! Lol

I weigh naked before every shower and record it in MFP. It keeps me honest and makes the stalls seem like they last FOREVER! ;)

Throw out the scales.< /p>

it's about feeling better, getting healthy......its not about a number on the scale.< /p>

I'm glad that's what works for you! But don't assume it's what's best for everyone ????

I weigh myself every single morning and log it in. It helps keep me on track.

Too many people are afraid of their scale. They aren't afraid of looking at their speedometer to see how fast they are going or their gas gauge to see how much fuel they have left, but the thought of a scale gets them all upset. It's just a tool that tells you where you are at. It relays a factual piece of information. That's all. It doesn't shoot death rays.

        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
