100 pounds gone party!



Recommended Posts

Congratulations...I recently got there too (about two weeks ago I hit the 100 lbs mark off peak weight). Parties are definitely a different animal nowadays...so I guess really high-Protein hors d'oeuvres. Sadly, this is where many people's efforts all come tumbling down...a carb escapade to Celebrate a benchmark. The story of Mike Hebranko is the most harrowing of all...it's amazing the cascade that a single Nathan's hot dog can set off. So let's both be smart...I'm starting to plan my Onederland party as well.

Sounds fun! I'm interested to hear how it turns out. I'd make bariatric friendly foods like cheese crisps with salsa, hummus and veggies, shrimp cocktail, etc.

Please keep us posted!

Try partying without food .... Bowling, movies, skating, anything that doesn't revolve around eating but where you can still have a good time.

At this point I can say that food just isn't enough of a priority to be considering it in party planning

There are other things that matter more.

Now is the time to learn how to Celebrate without food. That's a slippery slope that lead many of us to needing surgery in the first place.

Why not celebrate by pampering yourself? Get a mani/pedi or treat yourself to a massage? I did a spa day with girlfriends this summer. We bought them off groupon.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
