Weightloss Challenge

There's no port in my immediate future. Even if I heal, I can't put out any more money till I pay down a few grand.

Well I lost nothing this week and as long as I'm not gaining before I get my band I'd say that is an acomplishment in it's self! Hurray for me on losing 13 pounds before my band surgery on Friday March 18th.

Bigmom, -7? WOW!!!! What did you do to have such a dramatic loss? Come on... we want details!!!

Wade, a gain is normal... especially when its due to celebrating a Birthday ;)

Jonathan, it may take another fill before you get enough restriction to lose weight... hang in there!

Zoe, Michelle, Penni, Im soooo jealous! -2 or more pounds in a week is worth a celebration!

Christina, Im sure it was the stress of dreaming about t.v. land that caused a little gain... ?

Thanks again everyone! Having all of you do this with me makes this journey so much easier to handle.

Hey guys! (Ok, mostly girls.. still...)

Please check out http://www.waistingaway.com/index.php?option=com_wlc&Itemid=50 (or just http://www.waistingaway.com/wlc ) and notice that there's a place for you to update your own weights.

I don't thinkwe need any kind of password protection on this... I'm sure we won't be messing with other people's weights. If we find out we need to, I'll take care of it.

In the mean time, please update your weights yourself, and let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.

Jonathan

      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. 🤞
