My update!



Recommended Posts

So I know at the end of today, i will be able to sing "today was a good day" haha! Life seems to be getting easier. I feel like I am getting better at letting go of things. I actually went up from 154 to 154.8. Makes me kind of sad but that just means I need to work a little harder. I just have been busting my butt for the last week and eating even better than normal. I have to lose this 8 pounds by October 1st now. I don't think if I was off by 5 pounds my doctor would deny me the job, but its also a personal goal.

I'm also STOKED for Halloween. As bad as it is, I'm going to be something skanky this year. It'll be my first time ever. :lol: So if anyone has any ideas of what I could be and I'll just skankafy it. lol

And my rash is going away! :] Usually it just gets worse and worse but its FINALLY going away. I don't know what it was that i did to releave the stress but its about time after 3 months. I'm moving next week to a new nice apartment. I finally won't have a child mulester neighbor. The boyfriend has taken full control of the bills and I have to say I am impressed.

I still need to be around more people my age but life is still good. One day at a time and don't sweat it; life goes on.

Thanks for being such a good support system to all of you who have responded to my posts. I can't tell you what an impact you've made.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
