I got in around my goal of 5 hours this week. Still struggling with my stall between 206-209 however was thrilled to fit into a new size 14 pair of jeans! So I'd consider this week to be good, still think I'm losing inches. Also bought myself a new Pilates DVD to use in my spare time at home along with my stationary bike- we'll see how it is! Congrats to everyone for doing so well!

Hey @@Rebeccaabrooks86

How is it going this week? I have upped my workout times but missed a day so I only got in 3.75 hours this week.

I am just curious how many of us are still doing this challenge? I like having the accountability of needing to report my workouts each week, but I get that it might not be the biggest motivation for everyone.

I think about 5 people are still reporting each week. I like the motivation too. I wish we had a spreadsheet but I don't have access to the Google docs. But I hope you keep up the good work. I'm happy that everyone finds it to be motivational and supportive.

I'm still in... though i didn't quite meet my 4 hour goal. Got in 3 hours :( At the same time, I did come out of my stall and weighed in at 300.8 this am. Almost 101 lb loss since orientation - first week of August.

Great Job on getting in 4 hours!!! I just joined a walking club in my town and signed up for a bootcamp class starting Friday. Unfortunately I keep going between 206-209. I'm thinking some of its muscle though because I've been really sticking to my exercise and diet. But it stinks to see the scale not move!

        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.

      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
