Hello Everyone:

Here are some progress pics of me. I was at a conference in Orlando when i took these. I had to go shopping boefore the conference becasue i did nto have anything that fit right. I discovered that I now fir into a 22 jeans and a 2x (18/20) shirt. Ho-Lee Frickin' cow, Batman!! I was surprised. Not to mention that I am still wearing my 26/28 jeans at work. They are too big, and I need a belt to keep them above my waist, but Ihad no idea how much my sizes had changed. So if you have not gone shopping, I suggest you do. It actually helped me realize how much i have lost so far.

Enough of me runnin' my mouth. Here are my progress pics. i still have a looong way to go, but I am still shocked at how far i have come.

Does anyone know of a tasteless (maybe I mean unflavored) Protein Powder that I could use in a cup of hot tea? I use Super Advanced whey Protein powder, vanilla and strawberry in skim milk, but I could sure use a change and I love hot tea.

I remember someone at one of the support meetings talking about a protein powder she used in her morning oatmeal that had no flavor.

Thanks for any advice.

Jo

Recently anytime I try to insert pics, something goes wrong. Either they turn out gigantic or they show up as little X's. If you go to my profile you can see the progress pics that I have been brave enough to post here.

Thanks for the compliment. I am still far away from my goal, but I am trying to focus on the fact that I am closer than I was.

      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.
