Losing,

We all have bad days. In my opinion if you think you can give into that carrot caek temptation in a SMALL amount so that you can avoid some of the other crap I would. I have found that if I can do that I am better off than tryin to avoid it forever. Go somewhere and have a small peice of carrot cake.....but do not buy a cake, just a piece! :) If you try to deny it, it will keep getting worse! Good luck....

justlosinme!! Girl -- i know how it gets... you can do this. When I get that bad, I just go to bed and sleep -- and think about all the yummy things that I can have for Breakfast. THAT usually helps. :-)

You are an inspiration and don't feel bad about eating one bad thing. I agree with BOOBOO. Sometimes it is best to allow yourself one "guilty pleasure" but LIMIT it to one... that way you are over it and go on with your life. There are LOTS of low calories recipes out there for something that tastes sweet but ISNT! I love sugar free/Fat free pumpkin pie (without the crust)... YUM!

Hey Losinjusme,

This will pass. It absolutely totally completely sucks, but it WILL pass. You are such an inspiration to me, and you have already done so much and made such incredible progress. You are dedicated and amazing, you don't have to perfect on top of all that!

Oh, and...

I'm staying on plan today because the next time I get on a plane, the seatbelt is going to fit and I am going to put my little tray table all the way down!

I stayed on plan today because I was determined that, for once, I was going to start being "good" on a Saturday and not use the weekend as an excuse to pig out so I could "start again" Monday.

I will stay on plan tomorrow because I am disgusted with my lack of progress and disappointed in MYSELF and starting to doubt the decision to get the band. Yet, I know it's MY fault and not the band's.

...in addition to myself...my children and husband are worth it. I won't do to my family what my parents did to us. (Both died of lung cancer in their 50s...) Addiction is not an excuse to kill yourself.

I gave up going to Typhoon Lagoon and out to dinner in order to stay on this plan. I'm not going to ruin today now!

Btw, losingjustme... when you do your free days (once a month I think?) is it hard to get back on track? I've done free days before, usually once a week (eek!) and sometimes I extend them into free weekends, etc...

Hang in there losinjusme! You have done great so far - you can do it!!! Everyone has rough Patches.

I'm staying on plan because I'm almost out of 'fat' clothes into regular sizes. Can't wait to say goodbye to lane bryant forever!

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
