Deanna today is my weigh in day. scale is holding strong at 218. I have missed a few days biking due to the weather and my eating has not been the greatest. Tis okay. I am not weighing in for the next three weeks due to vacation and lack of scale. Though I will be back on Monday of the 3rd week I am going to wait until my normal Friday weigh in. I fully expect to work my ass off riding while I am camping and be 20something when I come back lol.

everyone has done SO well!!

i am sorry i've been pretty absent from this challenge, i've been in quite a slump and eating horribly and not working out much at all. the eating may be under control now, exercising - well, i'm still working on that.

Well I was just at my PCP office today and went up 1 pound since the last time I was in three weeks ago, not a good thing since there is a differnce between their scale and mine it looks like I am up 3 pounds, which is actually what I weighed on my scale as well this morning. My Lap Band surgeon was in my PCP office as well this morning (once a month he is there). He was leaving and saw me in the waiting room and he ask me when they would see me again and I told him soon since3 I think I am putting weight back on. So hopefully I will be able to get another fill soon and start going back in the right direction.

Keep up the great work everyone.

      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.
