I'm now five months in, and I only lost 30lbs. I need to lose 60lbs to be at my goal weight of a 160lbs. I don't understand why I'm not losing a pound or two a week. I eat right, jog three miles a day, walk one mile, do ten minutes of chruches and twenty minutes of light weight lifting. I do see my clothes getting bigger, but the scale is not moving. Just don't understand. My surgeon said that some people do nothing and lose lots of weight, while some workout and lose weight slowly.:thumbs_down::angry::huh2::thumbdown:

Ok, so I was really freaking out on friday night, ready to go to the ER, was so tired of getting sick, the whole 9 yards. My dad talked me out of the ER, they would not have done anything over the wekeend anyway. Really took it easy , just drank warm tea with unflavored unjury (unjury.com) Protein powder. Seemed to help, continued on Saturday with more Protein Powder. Was able to talk to my family and get some stressful things off my chest (I swear i felt it loosen immediately) Feeling much better today, just still going slow. Talked to Dr, he said to do all this and if I was still throwing up we would do an endoscopy. have no thrown up in 3 days. As to how I lost so much so quick, STRESS !! I had my life tuned upside down six months after being banded, my mom passed away suddenly, be the only responsible sibling, I have been taking care of just about everything and am not building a house with my future husband so i think i really just needed to get my feelings off my chest! It is amazing how much this has changed my life. I thank you all for your thoughts and support.

Teddy12*** I just wanted to check on you to make sure that everything was getting better for you. I lost my mom about 16 1/2 mths ago. If you would like to talk about anything please feel free to send me a private msge....:huh2:

        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.

      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
