PRAISE.....The Lorttttt!



Recommended Posts

I'm not gonna lie, I was getting depressed.

Real depressed.

See, I was in a stall. Yeah yeah we should embrace them. Well, the embracing lasted for all of a week, then shyt got real.

The second week rolled around, and then the third......

I'm not sure if it was lack of carbs, or this whole stall thing.....but I have been a beotch.

Today makes 9 weeks post op.

I reluctantly hop on the scale.

After a long 4 weeks...I'm a beautiful 5 pounds down. <---THAT....I can embrace.

And yes, I am performing another interpretive dance number called....

"I might not be humping on this hump day, but the stall has been lifted.....and that's kinda the same thing"

Happy 45 pounds down to me!!!!

45 pounds is a reason to happy dance! WHOOP WHOOP!

I think the more we see stalls come (and GO) the easier it gets to trust the process, follow the program and be gentle with our bodies.

Hells yes !

Well done. That's a nice jump, too.

FTR.....I never....ever.....never embrace a stall. I hate them and just want bust through them. A week or so is one thing....but I get really freaking antsy if it last longer than that.

I'm in one right now and going to change things up a bit and attack it differently for a while.

This current stall bidness can kiss my arse !!!

As soon as I finish my coffee, Ill be headed to Tally for a follow up with my surgeon.

Hopefully he can give me some insight into tackling those suckers head on.

Fingers crossed!!!

      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
