Rock on naked bandsters.

I'm on day two as well. Feeling less of a call for the sugar and other bad for me things.

w00t. I ran yesterday too eventhough my iPod was dead. It's charged now and I'm running again this afternoon!

The thought of me weighing naked has people at the Y running for the hills (i.e. pecan orchards)...lol...I haven't been on the scales for a while...I'm scared (after weighing in 2-3x a day - which it was going in the right direction).

I'm going to weigh next week though - after my full week is up...then post...I probably lost 5 pounds in Water weight alone. OMG...my bladdar was on hyper-mode. Feel great today though!

I am starting liquids today. I have been so depressed that I have gained 11 lbs. I have been walking on the treadmill for 35 minutes everyday since Saturday, but I have been eating wrong. I am really glad to know that I am not alone. I have felt like a failure. Thanks for starting this thread and getting me motivated.

I am a certified scale addict, so I weigh every time I go to the bathroom at home (I haven't figured out a way to get a scale into work without someone else seeing it). I am down 2 pounds since Friday (finally) so I am motivated to keep going. I second that toast! Here is to us! Forget waiting for Thursday.

My name is Heather and I am also a certified scale addict, lol. I swear I will weigh myself both before and after using the bathroom . . . first thing in the morning, last thing at night and sporadically during the day.

It is really too bad they don't make a shoe scale so you can stand on one foot and know where you are at a moments notice anywhere and everywhere, lol. If they put the read out on the bottom of your shoe, it might even improve the flexibility of the wearer, lol.

So now that you have come up with the great idea, you need to make that and patent it. I would be the first one in line to buy it.:party:

Hi Girlz,

I'm posting so I can subscribe to the thread and keep watch! I plan on starting this weekend so I can cook some Soups and such...I detest any kind of Protein Drinks. I think this is what I need to give me a kick in the ass.

Good luck to all of you!! :-)

Thanks BBK!

Count me in!! I have a dilated esophagus and can't have a fill for another 10 days so I'm on liquid and Soup. You want to talk about a wild pig. I ate and grazed like I hadn't eaten in 5 years.

Positive thoughts bring positive outcomes!!

Let's do it!

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
