I'm at 248 and the weight seems to be coming off very very slowly. But going down is the right direction!

Hi All, some weeks are better than others . Staying still is still SSOOO much better than a gain :lol: i'm still stuck but my BP dropped and I've been craving salt. So I retain fluid... (duh) oh well, see another doctor next week ( Have had a 'sinus infection"since the end of :sad:Feb)

I forgot to weigh until Sun and just now getting around to post. I'm down 1 pound. I really had hoped to be under 200 by my birthday (and when my hubby comes home for 2 weeks) next month but I don't think I'll make it...I should be close though.

Once again I have no weight loss to report. I am so disgusted. I guess I am going to have to starve to break this plateau because exercising and drinking Water is not working.

Went to see the doc yesterday and no weight loss in the month. He told me that its quite normal, gave me another .5 fill. Apparently, he has had some patients who lost practically nothing in the first year, and lost all the weight in the second year. He keeps telling me it will happen. I have to believe him. its hard sometimes. whats everyone else eating at this stage? i wonder if i am eating too much. care bear.

Down to 236. That is 2 lbs in over two weeks. I am very upset. I am not eating right and need to get back on track.

I was wondering about the weeks on the chart. Like, today is the fist weekday in May, and there are 5 Sat in May. How do I break that down into four weeks? I was going to try adding a week to May, but don't know how. Could you edit that Pete?

      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.
