I wish you luck but I don't think it matters if you lose or gain during supervised weigh ins. So, I wouldn't worry. After all if you could lose the weight normally, you wouldn't need the surgery. Of course, you would probably gain it all back and more like I have time and time again. I figured the lapband was as close to a muzzle as I could get - ha.

I know I don't have to lose with my weigh-ins, doesn't mean I don't want to. I am TRYING to lose and trying to follow what my nutritionist says. I don't want to gain or to stay the same weight. The more I lose now the more it will help with surgery. And the more self esteem and determination and positive attitude it will give me.

Just before my surgery I over heard my doctor telling someone that if they didnt lose weight he would not do the surgery because he wanted to know they were serious about it. The band is a tool not a fix all.

I know that dieting is very hard and sometimes you need a break from it. Thats ok so now you should just try to do a little better next time. Dieting is day to day. Wish you the best of luck.

My fingers are crossed for you. The more you lose now the less you'll have to lose after you have surgery. Good for you!

Hi Froggi, funny, I go for my 4th visit on Friday. This month has been a little tough for me too. My husband and my son had birthdays this month. I ate a little bit of cake and ice cream. Other than than that I've been doing okay. Hope all goes well!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
