Weightloss Challenge

I'm expecting to hit 299 in 3 weeks
Our race across the '99 line is still on, then! At the rate I'm going, I might not get there for another four or five weeks, but I'd love to get to the "other side" by May 1. Ready, set. . .

Hey! Where is everybody this week? I lost a half a pound, nothing short of miraculous considering how much chocolate and ice cream I put away last week. Slowly crawling to the 200 mark... Jonathan, how are you doing?

Nothing as drastic as I was hoping, but I'm 2 lbs down -- now at 316.

Oops, that's only down a pound. Guess I'm crawling right along with you =)

I guess to keep myself honest I should post my starting weight as 264. That's what I weighed on my home scale the day I left for Monterrey. But I miraculously weighed less at Dr. Rumbaut's office, and 261 didn't sound nearly as bad, so I used it as my official weight, rationalizing that the doc's scale must be more accurate than my generic model. Now, though, I might as well face reality! So I'm changing my signature as of today. Wish I could honestly state my current weight was lower. :)

(sigh) I lost 1 pound.

I have a confession to make: I have been eating crap for 2 weeks now! Just ate a jumbo *not small* JUMBO hershey bar w/ almonds - then finished Anne's cheetoes.... badbadbad Paula!!!!! :angry

Just for mental abuse, I looked on the hershey wrapper for the calories..... ONLY 410! :dead

Thats a meal.

I lost one pound. One week, one pound. Three weeks, three pounds. I know that I'm right on target, but I sure was hoping to loose faster than one pound a week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, quick being so hard on myself because I'm right on target!

Slow and stead wins the race. But geeze, can't I be a little more glamourous than a tortus? I wanna be something sleek like a cheeta! Or a leapord! yeah, that's 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.
