Very good, I am a bit off track...stress eating for the past few days. So today, I have a large party and it's a sit down dinner, will eat Protein first. I think I'll do this starting tomorrow to get back on track. I have to call and see if I can get another fill soon.

thanks for the info.

So monday and tues I did the liquids and today I started day 3 in the soft protein....I have already lost 2.5lbs (I havent been able to lost anything in 3 weeks)..its awesome I really like the mocha Protein Shake too. I think thats gonna be my Breakfast for awhile!!!!

I could tell a difference just today on how I eat and how much faster I got that full feeling. I think that I will do this 5 day test from time to time just to keep myself in check!!!

looks like you are doing great. 51 pounds is nice. im going to have to work extra hard to get to where you are. looks like i need to make more trips to the gym. and i guesss it will be just me this weekend kim cant get off. i think everyone is going to go eat after the track.

and on that 5 day test. i will have to try it out 5 days before the support group meeting.

      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.
