Nsv!!!! I Did It!!!!



Recommended Posts

I have not exercised since being banded, and today I walked almost 2 miles. (pushing a double stroller). I have used the babies as an excuse, but no more. My DH and I loaded up and went to the track. He and my 9 year old road bikes while I pushed the babies in the stroller. It felt SO good to be outside and active. We plan to do this together as a family each evening when he gets home from work. We all had a great time!!

Way to go girl! I started out exercising really good, but since the holidays I just haven't been motivated. I've got to get back on track. I even got an elliptical after Thanksgiving, I think I've used it about 5 times :).

Great NSV! Keep up the great work!

Thanks,

I also got my 4th fill today, and I have MAJOR restriction. WOOHOOO!!!! Maybe a little too tight, but I know there may be some swelling from the fill, so we will see. I had trouble keeping a milkshake down today. I know, I don't need a milk shake. Anyway, so glad to finally have good restriction. 2008 here I come. I have a band and I'm not afraid to use it!! LOL

That's good. I've had 3 fills and I do have some restriction, not as much as I would like though. I hope you've hit your sweet spot.

Ohyeah, I also lost 3 pounds over Christmas without restriction.!!

That's awesome! You're doing great!

Same here, haven't exercised since my band was put in. Started Dec 31, got that oh so nice muscle pain from lifting weights. I also have a mini trampoline. Oh and I'm moving, so I'm hauling boxes up and down stairs!

Good for you! I wish that it was warm enough here to go walking...it is FREEZING (although we are expected to get into the 40's). I am hoping to get my clearance to work out on Tuesday...I was banded 12/12.

It was warm. This morning it was 16 degrees. TOO COLD!!! I haven't waked in a couple of days because of the cold, but it is supposed to warm up tommorow, and I will be back at it.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
