I'm staying on plan today because when I lose 10 more lbs I will no longer be obese, just overweight.

I'm staying on plan today because the scale is moving in the right direction. I feel slim even if I'm not so that's enough to keep me focused.

I'm staying on plan today because I don't feel good when I deviate from it. I'm sick enough these days without adding crappy food to the equation!

I was banded on 4/7/2008. After 2 weeks on liquids and creamy Soups I lost 20 lbs. I started some chicken this week and when I got on the scale i GAINE 3 LBS. back. My endocrinologist did up my insulin slightly. I even got on the treadmill this week but showed a gain. Is this what others have experienced or just me? Very disappointed! I never wanted the scale to change direction on me after being banded.

I'm staying on plan today because that's the only way I will lose weight. I've got to look good in my bathing suit when I go on my cruise.

I'm staying on plan today because I haven't done very well the past couple of days and I am afraid the scale is going to move the wrong way when I weight in tomorrow.:huh2:

...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.

Wow...What an inspiration you are to me. Over 100 lbs. Way to go. I am just beginning my lap band journey...down 23 lbs. I started at 238 and now 215. I am looking forward to onederland.

I was wondering if you would share a typical day of eating for you. My goal is 145 and I just feel like that is so far from my reach. I am trying to focus on my success but when I think about how far I have to go, I get a bit overwelmed.

Did you ever hit a plateau? if so, after how many pounds lost and what did you do to get the scale moving again? Just needing some encouragemen before I become discouraged. Lol. Trying to be proactive here.

Thanks alot and again...CONGRATS on a job well done...Tasha

        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
