Recommended Posts

It's amazing how differently we all loose. I'm one of the slower ones but I know I am gaining Mucle. And can see a major change in my body. I am lifting weights 3 times a week for 1.5 hours. Also cardio a few times a week so I am thrilled with my progress. Was down 3lbs this AM! Keep up the great work everyone!!!

good for you thininside- I am losing slowly as well on average about 5 pounds per month so far - and you know what I'm good with it, I was banded on 5/19/08 and have lost about 25 pounds- I haven't had a fill yet either- no complaints on my end better slow and steady than not at all.. Keep lifting those weights!

I slowed down last wk...with my exercise and Protein so naturally, my appetitie picked up. I didn't lose week before last and only 1lb this wk. No biggy, esp after a lady in my support grp ;ast night was devestated because she hadn't lost in past "12 days"...OMGolly, I would freak if I weighed every day for 12 days anyways! But I understand that works for her. I'm back on tracj this week doing my 30mins walking and 15mins strength training, 5days/wk.

I go for my 2nd fill Tuesday. Still 2cc in a 10cc holding at 1/2 to 3/4 cup per meal.

Congratulations to everyone on their losses! I'm down 40 lbs since beginning the preop diet the last week in April. That puts me (almost) at the halfway mark. I have had four fills, and the most recent this week definitely put me at my sweet spot. Blood pressure and sugars are down, and I feel great. I have to say that being banded was the best health decision I have ever made.

Down another .6 lbs!! Not much of a loss but I will take it!! As long as I don't see the scale going back up I'm good with it. I keep to the plan and know that my body is adjusting. Doing more exercise so that may be muscle being built up. Not going to worry!! I love Looosssiiieee!!! (named my band) KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK EVERYONE!!!

I've lost 35 pounds since May 1st, when my pre-op diet began!!

I'm plugging along and still trying to figure out what to eat and how much....it's a learning process, but well, well worth it....

Way to go May Bandsters!!

Keep up climbing that hill everyone!!

      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
