Cinco de mayo ... what the ... ? Doesn't mean much to an Aussie, even if her mum was born in Mexico. :confused2:

Since my last fill I'm so tight I can barely drink Water. I am going to keep this though and make sure I get the Protein drink in Water. The Protein Drink in a can won't stay down. I know, I'm loony. Maybe I can kickstart a better loss. Seems like I'm down to 1 pound a week. I need this challenge!!

Ok, I am always the one with the lowest goal. I guess it's better mentally for me to set a lower goal and get there then to set a high goal and feel like i failed. Anyway, I did set this goal higher than I usually do for the amount of weeks in the challenge. Ha, this fresh fill must have me optimistic.

Good Luck everybody!

Thank you! It sure feels good to be able to be "present" for my son and wrestle and play. And then there is the fact that I can actually get around and do things! I love my motility now. (no this is not a power chair commercial) LOL. I just go and do! I can not believe how much better I feel. My wife is just amazed at how fast I am losing weight... she likes the new me I am turning in to. I am now lighter now than I have been in the 8 plus years we have been married! What I am going to like is the point when I drop below 275. That is what I was when I met "Love". I showed her a picture of me in 9th grade. It was a candid full profile (head to toe) and I was 210 then. That is my ultimate goal. It may take a while to get there from 400, but it is just coming off one day at a time. I can't worry about tomorrow and I can't beat myself up for decisions I made yesterday. I look forward to weigh in every Wednesday and the ladies at the bariatric center are just amazed at my progress. One of them had the band placed this past summer and she is just blown away at how fast it is coming off me.

Well, I have to study for a BIG test tomorrow.

Hi Peaches, You found us. Great!

TXArcher: I know just what you mean, it is truly amazing to feel like this.

My husband sees my "rear" view more often than I, and he continues to tell me how much my "cottage cheese butt" is going down! Small Curd is what he tells me it is now. LOL Good thing I have a good sense of humor and don;t take those comments too seriously. Overweight people develop a thick skin anyway and I know he doesn't mean anything in a bad way. He is very supportive, like your wife. Lucky us!

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
