Well, my mini-goal was to lose 50# by August 1st, and I hit it today!!! :juggle: So, I celebrated by having lebanese lunch.....

B - 2 soft-boiled eggs and 1 oz. string cheese

L - 2 small cabbage rolls, approx 1/3 c. steamed zucchini, carrots & green Beans, approx. 1/4 c. chicken & rice (ate mostly chicken), 1 T. of cabbage & wheat, and 1 T. spinach & wheat. (I managed to avoid the baklava)

S - 3 tortilla chips w/about 1 1/2 T. avocado/cheese dip, 3 small slices of cheese, 1 bite-size chunk of pineapple, 2 bite-size raspberry/chocolate bars, about 1/3 c. of white wine. (Office party. All food was very small pieces, but still....)

Went to the gym and worked out HARD for an hour.

D - 4 oz. grilled hamburger w/2 small slices of provolone cheese, a T. FF mayo and a T. ketchup. No bun.

S - Popcorn

I'm going to the lake for the weekend with 10 girlfriends...hopefully I can behave myself! Everyone have a good weekend.

Hello...I have an observation and I need to hear from a few of you so that I can have some clarity. I noticed that most of you eat very little food. Is that because you can't eat more than that because of your fills or you are measuring and will not eat more but could. I hope it is because your fill will not allow you to eat more than that. I received my 3rd fill on Tuesday which brought me to 4.5ccs. I feel some restriction, but not enough to where I am satisfied with the amounts you all eat.

Please respond back. Thanks in advance.

2911, I'm glad you asked, because I have been wondering the same thing for quite awhile now. I wonder if I'm doing something really wrong. I have only had two fills, and really need a third b/c I don't have restriction. I am hungry between meals, and at my meals I can eat up to 1 and 1/2 cups of food. Please don't bash me for that. I'm not overeating -- just eating till full! I would love it if what you are posting is because of being at that sweet spot! Thanks!!! :)

I'd say both actually - there are times when I can't eat more and others where I know I shouldn't and need to have a little more self control - also depends on the amount of time since my last fill.

It also seems like you both are more recently into the process - and I remember it taking several fills before I really started feeling good restriction.

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
