Here you go .... and I live alone, and can only eat a couple of ounces at a time, so there is no explaining this fridge :P

I'm not so good at doing these on time! Lol

4) Proudest 2018 moment - having VSG surgery. Which also helped diagnose me with Celiac Disease. So now I'm no longer in gut pain and getting healthy!

5) We keep the fridge pretty bare... this is after a shopping trip! It's mostly lunch meat, cheese, pickles, eggs. The freezer has all our meat and our pantry is stocked, so is our spice shelf! I'm all for making home cooked meals, and thanks to Pinterest, I can do it with minimal ingredients. Screenshot_20190105-194612_Messages.jpeg

Gosh I love looking at people's fridges!! I thought I'd be able to recognise what stuff is, but it's hard coz y'all live overseas where your cans and jars and packets have unfamiliar names. Except Fairlife Milk. So many peeps talk about it on BP haha.

#5 Inside Fridge...(sorry I hate cleaning out the door bins...so dirty! :blush:

Just so you know, we fear the zombie apocalypse like nobody's biz here, so we're always stocked up with sour cream (cuz you can never have too much), 2% cottage cheese and yogurt...and there are more containers of the last two outside in the garage fridge. Just sayin'...

#6 Week 1 Update (even though I am a day behind and only have 6 days under my belt, I'll go ahead and update. I won't take a new pic until next week. Hopefully you will see a difference better then. No one sees a diff with just 3-4lbs...

WEEK 1 UPDATE

SW: 287.4lbs

Challenge Start Wt: 150.4lbs

Week 1 Wt: 147.2lbs (-3.2lbs loss this week)

GW #2: 140lbs

GW #3: 130lbs

10.5 months post op RNY

I'm at #1 goal weight, but I want to lose more!!! I want to see if I can destroy my thunder thighs once and for all!

Goals

Consume 60-74g or more Protein per day

Take all my Vitamins

Get in 100+ oz Fluid a day

Start logging faithfully

Start exercising again today! Walk 1hour 6 days per week, and add in strength training and core building exercises 3 days per week.

Challenges this weekend: We celebrated our last family Christmas this weekend, and even though I stayed pretty great with Atkins Induction #s, I did include things that weren't on induction (oh I'm tawkin' bout you Mr. Peanut and you Gallo brothers)! I still lost, so keeping my quantities down has helped!

Tomorrow is our anniversary. We are going out to our little Italian restaurant. I know I will tangle with a glass of wine, but feel confident being able to corral it to 1 only. And will be able to make good choices there. So no fears! Then once that's over, it's back to the straight and abstemious narrow path for this chicky!

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        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
