Hi all,

Post op- MGB August 18,

I started IF at the beginning of February. I'm doing 16:8, and have hours of fasting between 5pm and 9am, and eating window of 9am - 5pm. Within 4 days, I feel less bloated and am down 3 pounds.

I will keep this diet for this entire month, and will see if it's more effective. I've been undergoing a very frustrating stall which has lasted weeks/months.

I'll keep you updated often.

I'm doing a 16:8 today--maybe even a 20:4. Cheers!

The magic equation:

Miralax + 3 Colace + 11g whole psyllium husk + 1 GG brancrisp cracker/1tbsp almond butter at bedtime + plenty of greens and low glycemic veg per day + 100oz liquids = throne nirvana

So, not complicated at all, huh?

Just checking in... Miss you all! My mom has lost 15 lbs last month using IF! I'm floating just around the 200 mark, a little above a little below but I'm pretty happy overall so... that's fine.

Here's an updated photo from this past Saturday night.
I love looking sharp... makes me feel so damn good! Even if I *STILL* don't see myself the way everyone else does, I know I look good, but I don't see it / feel it typically... when I get dressed up I sure do though!

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
