Today is a day I wish I had had, RNY!!!

I haven't seen the scale budge in 1 1/2 week, almost 2.

I am drinking my protien........ISOPURE

Granted I don't get to work out much, but I am on my feet most of the day 4 days a week.

I texted DH and I am busting out the Wii fit tonight.

I only ate meet yesterday off a gyro with some lettuce and Tomato. I had I think 6 mini meatballs and cheese and tomato sause. Took Tika out for a small jog ( its been raining and she won't potty with out a walk on those days)

And that is all I ate yesterday. Can someone please tell me where I am going wrong. I have to have a cup of coffee in the AM. I can't eat in the am cause I am so tight. So I have a EAS shake, and wait till lunch to eat anything, sometimes I am still tight I can't eat and it comes back up.

Please any insite would help.

I am right now about 223. I am not changing my ticker. I have been as low as 221. I don't need a fill. I just want to cry~ Plus I have 9cc in my 9cc realize band!

Thanks

Keri

you have done a great job going from 280 to 220's. that is significant. my surgeon told me that some people actually need to be banded and then a year or so later they need gastric bypass. he said it's kind of a two step process for some people to get down to a normal weight. but, keep up the good work.

ps- I usually have coffee in am too. That's ok. I even use % milk & 1 sugar.

If I don't have a cup.......... I don't poo.....:lunch:

SO I need it, not to keep me awake, but to help move things.

Keri,

This thread got a little OFF TOPIC! You were banded a couple of weeks after me. I got stuck for over a month before the scales finally started moving again THIS WEEK! Go over to www.livestrong.com/dailyplate and log every bite you take. Also log your Water intake. You'll be amazed at what you see. Make sure you're eating the right amount...not too much, but also not too little. And, vary your calorie intake up and down every few days...keeps your metabolism confused.

You say you don't get to work out much. You'll have to find a way to incorporate physical activity into your day even if it's not a structured workout. Do the best you can, then don't worry about the rest.

The weight will eventually come off, just not as fast as you'd like. You can do this!

Thanks everyone.... you all have renewed my faith in this system. I know that it takes time!!

this is why I love coming to this forum........I can't ask my non WLS friends, they just don't know.

I am going to start tracking my food again, and make sure I am drinking enough h2O

God Bless all!

Keri

PS keep the tips coming

      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.
