Starting 3rd month of medically supervised diet



Recommended Posts

Today marked the end of month 2, I have 4 more months to go until I can try for insurance approval. I had a horrible month due to starting provera, and finally having a period after 11 mo. Damn PCOS. Good news, I did not gain any weight. The first month I lost 10 pounds, and this last month 1 pound lol. Still a loss though!! I have my psychological evaluation next month sometime, and I'm registered for my 3 classes I have to take starting Aug 10. I have to buckle down and get serious about my diet and exercise again, and try quitting smoking. Going to go to a vape starting tomorrow, then lower the nicotine dosage. I just need off cigs. They are terrible!

This is my 2 month of supervised diet , I have 4 months left to go too! I have all my other appointments this month. Hoping it will speed up the process, I feel like I been doing this forever. Maybe we can keep each other encourage along the way. Good luck with quitting cigarettes and this new journey!

Awesome! And don't be scared paige, in 2 months I've lost 11 pounds lol so it wasn't a drastic change. But if we can dramatically decrease our bmi with lifestyle change and keep it that way, it would Def be better than surgery.

Good news nikki! Where is everyone from?

I will have my 6 mon visit on the 20th. I am just praying all goes well and I can be rid of some of my help problems. I know this is just a tool, but I'm really excited. I have two friends one did the sleeve and one the by pass. Both are doing great, down to their ideal and are off all mess except allergy and thyroid

      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.

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