Right back at ya Tap. Healthy New Year to all of you! I'm determined to make 2009 a great year and that includes getting back on track and losing some more weight. I'll be here each and every day again and hope I can help inspire you guys as much as you inspire me. So far the morning has gone well just a little behind schedule. I've got to get my exercise worked back into a routine but it will happen soon.

Look how far we've already come. Celebrate our success. We can do it this year. Yes we can!

Hiiiiiiii!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR DOUBLE VEES!

Yes, we have all been off and running doing this and that - as for me I am back to posting. I've been away far too long and I do believe that adversly affected my goals and weight loss. It was so nice having a special forum here for those starting the road at the same time as me.

This New Year has brought on me a whole new strength within, and I am going to try my very hardest to let this be the year I see my goal!

We can do it!

...and most importantly - Congratulations to all our successes so far!

How's everyone doing? I have to say I'm not where I'd like to be but I'm so much better than I was just a week ago. I manage to make it thru most of the day eating healthy just have to work on the evenings now. I did lose 1.5 pounds already though. That's definitely worth celebrating. Think my head is back in the game and I'm heading the right direction. Here's to all of us! Let it be a glorious year.

        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
