I had my surgery May 7 and I've lost 22 lbs. I've had 1 .5cc fill, but due to vomiting and severe pain I had to be unfilled. I have no restriction now, I'm so thankful I have fill appt next week.

I was starting to worry that I was never going to lose another pound! I lost only 1 lb. in 4 weeks of mushies and since then I've stayed the same. But today I got on my home scale and it says I was down 10 pounds! How is that possible?!?!? :thumbup: Just to make sure I got on the scale at teh gym and that said down 9 pounds so I guess it's right. :thumbs_down:

Whatever -- I'll take it! Of course I still go by my doctors scale as the offical measurement and I go in for a check and 2nd fill on July 30th.

Okay so tell me everyone.... I am seeing some fantastic weight loss on here and I'm wondering if you are including your preop weight loss?? I am 6 weeks post op today with one fill and have only lost 16lbs.... seeing all your great numbers leaves me alittle discouraged. :thumbup:

But congrats to everyone on these great numbers I'm seeing!!!!

Paige everyone losses at a different pace don't get discouraged 16 lbs is amazing! Would you have done that without your band? BTW my weight loss is including my pre-op liquid diet.< /p>

Had my 2nd fill yesterday and was told I probably need 1 or 2 more to hit the sweet spot. I now have 6 1/2 cc's in a 12cc band.

        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
