It's official 100 Lost



Recommended Posts

I had my RNY done on 8/10/15 and as of yesterday I am down 100 and feeling AMAZING!!! I only have about 45 more to go and my question is how does our body or system know it's time to stop losing more weight? It's coming off so fast it's almost scary not knowing if it's going to stop when I need it to?

Congrats!! I hit my 100 lb mark a few weeks ago (that's 100 lbs since I started my diet last October) and it was the best feeling ever!!! Keep up the good work!!

Isn't that just a GREAT feeling!? What an accomplishment! Congratulations.

The weight loss slows when you start eating more/exercising less. I only know of one person (my sister) who was told she'd lost enough weight and to start eating more. Just enjoy the ride! Believe me, there will come a time when it won't be so easy and the wt loss will slow down. :)

Wow.. Awesome????. I had my rny on June 24th and am down 70 lbs. I started at 312 and am now 242. I'm 61 yrs old and only 5'1". I've been worried that my wt loss has slowed down too much. I'm only losing 2 to 3 lbs a week and sometimes none.

I have only just started to walk because I have arthritis in knees and ankles. I was wondering if you could share an example of what you eat in a day and whether you are exercising. I know everyone is different. I've just been worried that I might be doing something wrong. Your success is inspiring!! Congrats!!

Hi and congratulations. I had that discussion with my surgeon last week. I am still losing quite a bit of weight and about where I want to be. She said as long as I feel good, am in a healthy BMI range and there are not concerns that I am not getting enough food that it's fine. We may keep losing weight up to 12-18 months post-op. If it becomes a problem with malnutrition there are options, appetite stimulants and other supplements. So far I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and enjoy the process as much as I can. A Nutritionist is an option if needed I was told as well.

        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!

      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
