I am down 60 pounds as of today. Some days I eat more than others. Some days I have to remind myself to eat. Very strange but I make sure to get my Vitamins and eat Protein first. Lots of Water too.

Just wondering how much has everyone lost? How are you feeling ,how much do you eat?[/quotem]Myself Ive lost 66 lbs since my surgery in April. I'm feeling so much better, enjoying my freedom of movement. Surprised when I look at myself in the mirror. I have days that I am hungry most of the day worrying about eating to much, but knowing it's still not close to what I used to eat but still worry. So afraid that I'll end up stretching my stomach back out, and then some days doing well and not very hungry. I've never been able yet to tolerate fish or really any meats at times. I'm Very happy I had my surgery. Just pray I'll learn better habits and keep the weight off once it's gone.

I am feeling great! Down 62lbs. What I can eat seems to very. Anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 cup. Depending on what it is. For things like steak just a few bites. So glad I did this. It feels so good to not be driven by food. If anything it is more of a chore to eat now.

I've only lost 38 pounds. My own fault. Didn't do what I was suppose to do. Became a carb junkie again. Was consuming 2000+ calories a day at times. This week I have been trying to get back to doing the right thing. Not doing so bad. 9 weeks until my 1 year surgiversary so I want to lose more by then obviously.

If you are a carb addict I would stay away from them. Eating carbs leads to eating carbs. You may want to try the new weight watchers program. It is geared towards eating Protein and cutting out sugar. I too need to limit the carbs or I am hungry all the time. I generally eat a piece of whole wheat toast with my Breakfast and maybe some brown rice with dinner. Always eat protein first, veggies, then "good" carbs. Good luck!

How many calories is everyone eating now? Just wondering if I eat too much or too little?

This is a great question for your NUT. Calories are going to be relative to your Protein target as well as your activity level, etc.

Why not check in with your NUT?

Last few months I was struggling to keep up with eating pattern and Protein intakes, but I am able to lose weight as much as I can. The total of losing weight I have had since April 2015 is more than 150 lbs, and am feeling good and more energy..

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      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
