September bypass buddies??



Recommended Posts

How is everyone going?
I'm starting to lose hair...this also happened a couple of years ago after my sleeve surgery. My eating has improved..still struggling with eating slowly...a very hard new habit to form.
I can eat 1/2 to 3/4 cup at a time without too much difficulty.
I have 22 lbs to lose to reach a "healthy weight". For the past 2 weeks I have only lost 1/2 lb. I have had some chocolate/ christmas food.< br>Pretty happy with my results but would really like to reach my goal weight.

I’m doing great, I’ve lost 11.5 pounds so far this month. I was stalled for a little bit last month smh. No complaints, I haven’t noticed any Hair loss so far. Currently I’m increasing my Protein to a minimum of 70g because I just started training for a half marathon. 52lbs down since surgery and 53lbs away from onederland.

I weigh less than I did as a 16/17 year old. I love my pouch. Best decision of my life.

Ok everyone. We’ve been WAY too quiet! How is everyone doing?

I feel so much better. The weight loss isn’t where I thought I’d be but it’s progress. 64 lb since my pre-diet weight. Slow but happening. I joined a kick boxing class and it’s HARD but hoping it gets the weight moving the right way. I’m finally below 300 which is exciting though.

Hello everyone!! It’s funny because the other day I was thinking about my September bypass buddies. I’m doing good. Down 55lbs since surgery. I struggle with eating slowly too but I try to catch myself and slow down. I have menta struggle with the process but I’m going to see a therapist to help. Hope everyone else is doing good.

Well I suspect We All Are- it's like LIFE keeps telling Me " Sorry Frustr8 - I just changed the rules!". SW was 319 on September 5th 2018, this morning Current Weight 281.9, now gone from 28-30 W to a mostly 16, few 18s still aren't falling to the floor because I put new elastic in to prolong wear a little longer. Put my undergrowth clothing on our local buy-sell- trade radio program-TRADIO , thought I priced them at a reasonable price but not even one nibble, maybe people are so cheap they expected them to be FREE? Wanted to realize a little money so I can buy new things in my lowering size range, that would be a fair thing to do, I thought.

        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
