Recommended Posts

SassyNanny,

I have also lost the same amount as you I just saw my surgeon last Thursday and had all my blood work done . My bloodwork came out good except I need more Protein .

I have thrown out a lot of clothes and yes clothes do fit me big but I guess I was hoping to of lost more than I have.

I do also have premier shakes but per my nut I will start having a shake at least 1 time a day.

I have not been able to attend a supporting yet but I will this month. Have you attended any support groups ?

You all are my support group also.. I have lost 27 lbs but it tends to fluctuate 3 to 4lbs .. doctors says that everyone drops weight differently as long as I lose I'm doing fine. I lost a big bulk of my weight prior to surgery which makes my total loss 127lbs..I was in a 28 now in a 22 size

WOW.....Congrats !! Its hearing things like this that frustrates me about how slow my progress is..

Since surgery I always feel like I am on the verge of tears.

How did you lose so much and how long did it take you ?

Don't let me frustrate you. I started losing during my physician monitored diet for insurance. It took me a year to lose 100lbs the last 18 lbs of it was with my pre op diet. I feel that since surgery my progress has been slow.. and it makes me feel the same.. but as I told my doctor this they said everyone loses different and as long as I'm losing it is good..

Happy Easter everyone!! Have not posted here before. I am a November 2016 sleevers and today I hit my half way weight loss goal of 68 pounds. Coming off a little slower now but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Feeling much better and gaining my self confidence back.

So far I have attended 2 and they are pretty informative. Mine are a mix of pre op and post op and vets that have kept the weight off for year plus.

      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.

      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.
