Well, I gained more weight over Easter than I care to mention lol. Damn chocolates! So I'm just happy to be below my start weight for this challenge. Hopefully next week I'll have a better number to post.

I think somewhere along the way the cutting and pasting got mixed up. Some people's numbers are off in the current list (ie skinny jill). hmm..

Well, I couldn't take the hunger anymore, so I called and made an appt for Monday!

It's not even Noon and I have had: one Atkins shake, 3/4 c Kashi go lean Cereal with 1/2 c skim milk and one piece of whole grain bread with PB. I never eat that much. My stomach feels like a bottomless pit.

And all that food did not fill me up! I knew I better get to the DR's office ASAP!

I want to get off the next 10lbs. my May 6th so that I hit 100lbs. by my 6 month Bandaversary. Wouldn't that be nice. I go for a fill next week so that should help me out a lot. I haven't reached the sweet spot yet. Like Shortgal I have a bottomless pit sometimes. Really having to keep mind off of eating.

Cindy, this is the first time I am feeling so out of control with the food. I've never had great restriction for more than a couple days but have always managed to eat sensibly. I am choosing healthy foods but eating too much of them.

I am nervous about ending up too tight before my vacation, but if I am doing a fill it should be soon so I have a chance to try some solid food to see what works before I go away. And If I don't do something everything I own will be too tight before I leave!

I'll have 2 1/2 weeks after the fill to get it all figured out.

One good thing is that there are great doctors in Mexico should you have problems. LOL! I agree that you don't want to be to tight on vacation. Enjoy!

Hi everyone,

I am just checking in. The scale is not moving. I am tracking every bite I eat and eating around 1000 calories. I am also excercising with a trainer. I know I am losing inches so I am not too frustrated. I know the scale will start going down soon.

I'm down three! Got another fill and that helped. Don;t think it's the sweet spot but it feels different (so far) and feels like I'm a little closer to THE spot. I think another .25 or .5 cc will be right. I'm at 8cc now! Next appt is after vacation, May 5th. I have two weeks until we leave, don't think I'll reach challenge goal but as long as it goes down something, it's all good.

I'm finally in the 170's!!!!!!!!

      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.
