The stall will end, keep doing what you're supposed to. Maybe stop weighing for a few days?

I am afraid getting aT Dr in when I go back to work Monday will be challenging too

Yeah, I have some worries going back to work Friday. I hope I can hang until 7th period with enough energy to survive. My Water will be in my hand the entire day...hopefully I can get my fluids this way

June 8 sleeve here too.... 3 month ck on Friday. I am questioning just how I am doing.... I was putting in 12 to 18 hour days -6 days a week from 2 weeks post op until last week and now I'm feel like I just got off a rollar coaster and dont have any good habits in place other than drinking as much Water as I can. I'm now going to be working 2-3 days a week and working on our house while my 3 kids are in school so I am going to try my hardest to get into an exercise routine walking hills around where I live and eating correctly.... I know Protein first then greens but am I supposed to stay at 2oz 3xs per day and 1 snack? If do then that's what I will do... I had loads of pre op instructions but thats it for postop. Vits, water, exercise and that diet. Could it be that simple?

@@Abbie213 if you're still at only 2 ounces of food per meal and only having 3 meals a day plus a snack, you're probably not getting enough calories or Protein. I'm two months out and eating way more. I'd have NO energy to move, let alone exercise. I get close to 100 grams of protein per day. Track your protein, not your food ounces. Good luck.

Congrats on your success. I'm down 77lbs total and 60+ of that since June. I feel great but I still don't push the eating. I eat two to three meals and snack several times. I love Greek yogurt and frozen cherries, sometimes with some honey. I still can eat other things but carbs are gross and take up too much space in my belly! Keep up the good fight everyone!

Congratulations! !

My weight loss has slowed, but I keep trying to hit daily Fluid and Protein goals. Started back with trainer 3 times a week. Feels so good to move!

I have found it is still hard to hit my protein goal. We just got placed with our adoptive newborn son, so my attention is off of me which just makes it harder. I did reward myself with some new jeans and a new dress! Not bad for my first clothes purchase since surgery. Jeans are half the size I was.

      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.
