Ok strange thing is I only wanted to use timers consistantly and eliminate my use of Protein Cookies, don't judge me, but in the process I dropped out of a maintenance zone and lost around 7-8lbs... This far into the game that's nothing to gloss over. But I do need to keep some fat around for the possibility of Plastics.
*Maybe* I'll slow down on them . I have a box that I need to figure out how to gift...
Maybe not
Starting: 158ish
Ending: 150ish

Wow, you look great in ALL of them. How come you need fat for plastics?

SIMPLE SURVEY TIME!!!
How was this challenge?
Great fun. Very helpful. I didn't meet all my goals but even doing the challenge alone kept me thinking about my eating and exercise habits.

#31 : Before / After Photo...
Down 15 lbs for month of January. Yay me!
January before/after below. Personally, I see very little difference except to me it looks like my boobs are bigger or something? I must have been wearing a different bra...
...and just for kicks, a before-before pic from this last summer (yikes!)

Sooo i was a bit quiet... but here I am again... had a huge 10days stall... but still manage to get to 156 kilos, that is 6 kilos loss or 13lbs

I enrolled to gym, and went sometimes... need to improve the actual times I get there [emoji14] (3 times per week min)

I bought also weights to do some minutes exercise at home too.

Protein is good, but still struggle to reach it every day. Thank god for my Protein powder!

My after fotos sucks... but I think there can be seen some change :) tiny one hehehe love to join you in February and be more active there !

They can do that??? How do they get the fat to stay in the new place? I can't even imagine? I am woefully ignorant.

        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
