I'm going to save my weigh ins for my dr's scale. Mine has always read 5-10 lbs less than theirs but never a consistant number so I can't just add 6 or something. I'm going to see if I can go into my clinic once a week and just weigh in.

If I was going by my scale, this morning it said 197....but since last Thurs. doc said 206, I'm not buying. It's moving....that's all that matters right now.

Great Loss so far Danna! Wow!

I agree, I'm only using my Dr's scales as my show about 2kg (4.5 lbs) less than his, so yesterday was my post op check-up and my appt to decide if I need a fill is Jan 9 - so will get weighed again then.

Like you, so long as it is moving in the right direction is all that matters.

My starting point was 125kg (275lb) on November 27. After 10 days of pre-op and 4 days post-surgery, I'm at 120.2kg (261lb), so have lost 14lb in 14 days... whoohoo!

I was banded on Dec. 4th which was 9 days ago. I started at 279lbs. my scale at home says 264lbs. That would be 15 pounds however I think my scale at home may be about 3 or 4 pounds lighter then the docs. I am going tomorrow for my post op follow up and will get a true reading then. But I am still amazed with the results thus far. :)

        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
