Nymph's Valentine's Day Challenge Week 1 (1/10/07)



Recommended Posts

I would love to join in. I don't get to check in on the site that much and need some more motivation. I don't get my first fill until January 23rd and the weight loss has definately slowed.

starting weight : 195

current weight: 167

goal for V-Day: 150!

I have high expectations for this fill!

Thanks for the motivation and Hope I can join in.

You hit ONEDERLAND!!!! Congratulations, Steph!!! :eek:

Thank you! :bananapowerslide:I was sooo excited to see it on the scale this morning. I LOVE being here because I know I'm here to STAY!

I casually mentioned once last month to my mom that I was losing weight, but I never mentioned numbers. I sent her a couple pics of me standing with some of the crazy snow we're getting around here and they weren't even close-up shots of me and she said I was looking SKINNY!! LOL That was awesome. My mini-mini goal before my Valentine's Day goal will be to hit "overweight" for my BMI and that's 8 more lbs. Yay! Overweight! LOL Never thought I'd say that.

Just got a fill yesterday. Only half a cc cause the last time 1 was too much and I had to be unfilled. I feel slightly more restricted but not much. I can get another half in 2 weeks. I started the challenge only a few days ago so no weight loss yet. Hopefully, I'll have a good loss this week.

Same here! I will be able to update this Friday but my next appointment will probably be after February 14 so I'll have to update late on the challenge.

We're in this together, Sis! ;)

For sure Longhorn... I know we will get there... this is obviously a period where we are not breezing through like at the beginning. I had such an amazing run in the first 6 weeks so I should be grateful. 10 lbs... doesn't sound like much so should be achievable.

10 pounds sounds like a huge number to acheive, to me.

Next fill is Tues... please I hope I get some restriction, even if for one week! I would love to make even my small valentine's day challenge, of a 6 pound loss.

I find I can now eat almost anything. Last week for two days, I kept my calories at 800, it was VERY hard. Can't wait for Tues.

I know it's not going to be easy but if I work on it until my fill on 23rd then hopefully after I will be restricted enough to make it a little easier. We just need to hang in there.

I am right there with you guys who have gotten slower results in the last couple of weeks than we had in the beginning.....but I am certain that it will continue, because my mindset is there will be no looking back!! I am only going forward and downward, from this point on.

Congratulations Everyone for hanging in there and continuing our downward spiral to a healthy weight!!

        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.

      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
