Jenn, your not alone, you have us, I don't attend the monthly meetings (ashamed) I just know everyone from this site. I did meet linda and rain at the office once. you are just as much a part of this band family as anyone. :)

Vicki - this was a bad day with a lot of food, but this is the basics of what I eat every day... this was from my journal, so I'm getting between 6-800 cals a day and 70-80g Protein. My fill is what lets me do this. I have lost 31lbs since July 30th. Plus I walk 5 miles a day and was doing Water aerobics but right now I'm changing to weight training. So as you can see, I dropped a bunch really quick from 7/30 to 8/12 with the fill, I'm now leveled off, that's why I track measurements

Jenn, you are totally motivated, I don't think I could be so regimented. I was told that once you drop under 1100 cal. a day your body stops losing? I don't measure anything or weigh anything but myself, I am just aware of what I am eating but not how much. I lost 8 lbs this past 6 weeks, I just feel it is not coming off fast enough...:blink:

I think that is why I think I've slowed down, but I had a 3oz chicken tender in my lettuce for lunch and put some ground turkey in my egg this am, once a week i eat more then back off. that is why i'm changing up my workout too, but I'm at home and have tons of time to exercise, which is how i lost so quicklyin the beginning. I have not had any junk or sugar since July 30th, and I just keep saying don't do it or you will get the taste back

I've just been thinking that I really need to get back on track. I need to start journaling everything again and get back to the excercise. Anyone want to join me jumping back on the wagon?

Hey anyone know what happened to Judyanticola? Where is she?

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
