Hi Crazy Ates Brothers & Sisters!

It's been 3 months.....just wanted to check and see who is still checking in regularly!!! Just wanted to get a sense of who might be checking in and not "talking" much. My schedule has been a bit intense lately so I find that I check in but I don't chime in.

This is a great group and I want to make sure that we are sticking it out together!!!!

Even if you're pressed for time.....please pop in and say HI!!!!

Judi

I am doing great. A little tight, but, glad I am, because I need to change some behaviours. Really surprised at how much stress affects my band.

I'm still here too. I just added up the weight loss for me and everyone who has posted on this thread before me. 538.5 pounds lost all together. When the rest of the Crazy Ates post I predict we will have lost over a ton of weight! Keep it up everybody. Changing your life is really hard, but we are doing it.

OK, so there was some kind of fluke that kept me from getting my second fill when I should have. I had my first one in mid-Sept. and the second on 11/7. I had called at the beginning of Oct. when I knew I didn't have restriction and she said they were booked until 11/7! WEll, come to find out, Dr. took a week off and then the nurse took a week off making two weeks out of October impossible to get a fill. So I was in the first stage for a long time. These people at the fill place aren't real friendly so as soon as I get my two fills that I have already paid for I will be going somewhere else. I want to email my nurse and tell her about them but I think I might wait until I am done there. This past week I got a rather big fillfor number two but seeming how I was supposed to be on number 3 I hope it catches up with me!

I have only lost 17 pounds and that alone without the grouchy people is frustrating enough.

Keeping fingers crossed that this one works!

Hi! I am still here. I was just out of town this week. Everyone seems to be doing amazing.

pigsrflying - I agree about grouchy people, but just think, it is 17 pounds without restriction. Imagine what it will be with restriction! Good luck.

TexasBecky - Wow that is a lot of weight for just a few people. We really are doing great. You can at 48 pounds to that for me!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
