How are the August sleevers doing? Are you losing weight? What are you eating? Are you doing meal prep and exercising? I'm at another stall and I know I need to increase exercise.

It's a struggle for me. Usually I'll have an egg or shake for B-fast, Soup for lunch and a small light dinner like fish. Have lost 36 lbs since surgery. No exercise yet. Had other injuries that have stopped exercise besides walking.

Can't complain about losing 36lbs but man it's been a hard way to get here. Like any weight loss program is easy--not. Wonder if this degree of weight loss continues for awhile? Had many stalls then a drop, the stall and back n forth.

Yes I can relate. I keep having stalls. I think I'm going to start exercising to see if that will help. I also should start cooking at home instead of choosing healthy meals that are already prepared. Some days I don't even want to eat and have to force myself.

My surgery was 8/9/17. I'm down 73# ...been exercising since surgery....not everyday and nothing drastic..walking, riding the stationary bike or just doing a little extra effort with everyday chores. Eating has been a little difficult but I'm starting to figure things out little by little. IMG_4390.JPG

        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
