I'm worried about having to lose 5 lbs on my preop diet when I finally start it. I have been stuck at the same weight my past 2 weigh ins and since I've been stuck at losing 26.5 lbs I'm afraid I won't be able to lose anymore with preop. My last 6 month weigh in is October 3rd...hopefully i break the plateau. My preop diet will be Protein Shake for Breakfast and lunch and lean meat for dinner for 2 weeks

Thought, I would chime in just because......I love to read and check my books out of the library. I will see an interesting book in a waiting room or grocery store and write the author down and check it out of the library.

Shoes, I love them, all types: flip flops, sandals, tennis shoes, and yes even on special occasions heels. (not often) Due to heal spurs I can't wear flip flops as much any more:cry_smile: I miss having a reason for my monthly pedi. Oh well maybe they will get better in 100lbs or so.

Yep, I exercise 5 to 6 days a week. Maybe I'll break the plateau on my last weigh in for my 6 month diet.

I have vicodin AND the underwire didn't last very long. Mr. Mac has been great to me so I didn't want to start demanding he do laundry too. (I'm out of lose underwear and no-wire bras.)

I won't! The bra lasted about an hour (though I had to put it back on for a while -- no other clean ones and didn't want to be braless at MacBoy's b'day party) and later on I had some vicodin too.

I walked a lot more today though than last time I tried. I also took a nap with only one pillow. I know you guys will understand how exciting that is. :lol:

        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
