I am starving. I get full faster, but it doesn't last long at all. It kills me to not snack. I haven't passed you though. It will be a LONG time before I have a 1 in front of my weight like you have. I have PCOS too, so I understand about holding on to the weight.

Posting to say, wow, I have to go out of town for a couple of days, come back and find I am over 15 pages behind on this thread. That will teach me for only checking in once or twice while I'll was gone.

Guess I will have to get my booty on to work and then spend some time reading and catching up (sshhhhhhh, don't tell my boss!).

Yeah you!!

Walking/slipping/sliding in a winter wonderland this morning. Heart attack snow (for those in the more southern climates, it is very heavy wet snow - very heavy. many suffer heart attacks when shovelling it). So DH and I were out at 5am shovelling our little driveway. Then when walking back from the Y to work, no snow ploughs had been out, roads were a mess, no sidewalks salted, and it was a tough walk....

Love my hot coffee and being INSIDE when outside it's rotten!!!

luluc-I have had a fill. I THINK I can tell a difference, just not much of one. I eat about a cup of food in one sitting, but after about an hour, I am hungry. I don't mean head hunger. I mean stomach grumbling with hunger pains. I have been trying to drink something when I feel it in hopes of stopping the awful feeling.

that sux!

it's the hardest part i think of this whole process. waiting for restriction, i swore i would be the one who never got it. took 5 fills before i felt like i did after surgery - by fill #8 i realized restriction. it was frustrating, especially watching hubby having restriction after 3 fills, and i was eating more than him.....and he's 6'3, and was 280 at the time....

maybe sip on a Protein Drink, not just liquids in between???

PJTP - had to break out my WINTER coat this morning!:)

It's cold here in Connecticut - and the wind! I'm really glad I found this coat in August before they got "popular".

Got an unexpected gift this morning - my manager, who has had the bypass and is MUCH slimmer, brought me one of her "old" coats. She dresses very, very well - has a wonderful sense of style. Beautiful ivory wool coat, classic lines, made for a tall woman.:)

Now, shopaholic that I am, I've got to find some ivory leather boots to go with...Ebay here I come!:)

I will try the Protein drink. Something has to give on this. I can't get another fill for a month. I don't want to gain weight during that time, so I am using all of my will power (which if it was a lot of will power, I wouldn't be fat) to not choose the wrong things. ugg. I knew this was going to be hard work, but dag!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

      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
