Thank you so much for that. You seem pretty normal in the way you approach things. It seems pretty natural. It's pretty much what i try to stick to. Snacking IS a problem. Especially around that time of the month. But im getting my groove back. Making more of an effort to prioritize my Water and Protein and trying to get in more activity.

I had gone to the gym a few times with my sister but i did a lot of weights and got really sore. Maybe ill just keep it simple and stick to cardio and yoga. Thanks for the help. Keep up the great work!

Aw thank you and congrats! 40 is amazing, increase your Water (if you can) and try to only stick with Proteins. snack whenever but watch what your snacking. Anyone that’s says they don’t snack is lying so don’t worry about that. The first 12 months are crucial so just continue to do your best and always think about what you will look like months from now!

That’s what I did, also what I did for my first year was make a personal monthly goal. My doctor said I would go down 10 every month I made sure to go down 12-15 or more if possible. So make monthly goals, watch carb intake and you will be fine!!!

Thank you and good look with your journey!!! Remember follow your nutritionist plan no matter how tempting it is to eat carbs. Carbs drag the weight loss!! I wish someone told me that earlier

You look amazing congrats. We had surgery about the same time (I'm 12/30/16) and the struggle is real after you pass that one year mark. I've been stuck since January bouncing the same 3 pounds then I had my gallbladder out in Feburary, got off track with the gym (wasn't allowed to work out for a month and got lazy) and the snacking and gained 5 pounds. I legit freaked out but I've gotten 3 off in the past week so I'm back on track. I am so close to that goal I can see it but I just can't get over this bump so far.

      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
