I haven't kept up with my liquids today. I did have a caramel macchiato with sf Syrup. Other than that, just crystal light, one piece of cheese, chicken and green Beans. back to normal foods for tommorow

Great job Georgia!! Congrats on the pound!!

I got full a lot quicker tonight, but I can't really say that I feel more restriction. I don't know if that makes sense or not. It's still kinda hard to tell, but I think I am not going to be able to eat as much volume of food. I hope that is the case. That is really what I wanted, not necessarily to be "tighter". I hope that makes sense.

Can't get the stats right now as TDP is down :biggrin: ... however, the scale moved again this morning so I'm a happy camper. I have 2 weeks to lose 12 lbs, I am determined to stay on track!

Everyone is doing great, except me. Today hasn't been very good so far. I had a doctor's appointment out of town (2 hours away) and I had to eat lunch on the go. I ate some chicken nuggets from Wendy's and I ate about 10 of my son's french fries :frown:. I also slipped up last night and ate a pop tart. I'm going to do good for the rest of the day and be back on track for tomorrow.

I went to see my Endo today and apparently the reason I'm so tired and fatigued is because of my low DHEA levels. I almost feel like I've been drugged or something. It cause depression too. I haven't really been depressed but I have noticed I'm not as upbeat lately. I just want this straightened out so I will have the energy to exercise again. My insulin levels were high too, I hope all these medicines I'm on now will level all this out. Anyway, I'm getting back on track, I promise.

Don't be hard on yourself. What is up with Pop tarts. Last night I was going to eat a pop tart. I took one bite and couldn't eat it. It got stuck and came back up. That is so weird though, of all the foods to cheat with we are both trying to eat a pop tart!! Out of town appointments are the hardest!! You can get back on track.

I really love this thread.

        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
