In need of a hug️



Recommended Posts

I'm in a lull right now with my weight. I've been at the same weight for about 9 months now. Which is fine because I'd rather be at 162 than at 245 when I started. I'm just not giving it my all and I'm just sad about it. I need to get going, but am having a hard time .

Here is a virtual hug.

It sounds like you are doing great.

If you do want to lose more I am sure that if you put some effort into it you can be successful.

Why not make an appointment with your NUT to talk about your goals and strategies for reaching those goals and then maintaining since you are so close.

In the meantime. go back to basics and make sure you are getting in all of your Protein and fluids.

Are you exercising?

Thank you for the hug :)

I haven't seen my NUT in almost 6 months. I have a 18 month follow up in June with both her and my surgeon.

My exercise use took a back seat. I need to make time in my daily routine, to do some form of exercise.

I have no idea why I do this to myself. Next week when I see my therapist I'm gonna ask her to help me figure it out :)

Big big HUGS! I agree with making an appointment with the nutritionist... Maybe you just need a little boost. Drink the Water.. Eat the Protein.. And try just going for a nice walk...just you and your iPod... Listen to some good tunes.. It might just be the boost you need. We all struggle from time to time and that's perfectly fine.. We are human after all! You can do it! I have faith!

      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
