19, getting sleeved on FEBRUARY 25th NEXT WEEK! Need a scale



Recommended Posts

Oh my god yall I never thought I'd be this close, getting kind of nervous, but excited!!! I don't know if I've lost any weight on my 2 week pre op diet I'm sure I have I just need a scale. Any idea where to get a good accurate scale that doesn't cost too much??

Discount stores usually have them not too expensively. Do you have Ollie's in Texas? They have them very reasonably. Of course there is a scale at the doctor's office too and if you're in college just go to the health room. They will have one and should not mind if you use it.

Good Luck on your upcoming surgery!

This is the one I bought about 4 years ago. It's still running on the same batteries. It's only a scale, no bells and whistles like memory. It has served me well.

If I were you I wouldn't even buy a scale right now. You will get weighed everytime you go see your doctor. Don't become a slave to a scale. You will experience stalls along your journey, and during those times you will become frustrated because you're not seeing the weight loss you expect if you're constantly weighing yourself. I'm one of those people that weighs herself everytime I go to the bathroom, (my scale sits right next to my toilet). Fortunately for me I'm not really bothered by what the scale says, but there are certainly a lot of people that are.

I'm going through a stall right now, and everytime I get on the scale I just ask myself will today be the day I break my stall or will I see the same thing tomorrow. I'm actually getting excited about when my stall will break.

Yeah, I'm kinda weird like that :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
