I haven't lost any more weight this week - stayed at 280 for the past 4 days I've been on my period...is this normal not to lose? Oh well, maybe more next week!!!!!

YES, this is totally normal! Don't worry, it will come off! My scale hasn't moved for a week either and prior to my last weight loss, I was stalled for almost 3 weeks!! Hang in there, it will come!

I am down 2 more...slowly but surely. I have now lost a total of 6...guess I should have made my goal 10, I could have made that!

I finally have a little restriction...I got 3.5cc's in a 9cc band.

Since I know I'm going to be slammed this week with work, I wanted to update a day early. I am SO EXCITED reading all the weight lost- you all truly inspire me!! I've been stuck at my weight now for going on 2 weeks; but I started working out and actually gained 3lbs :laugh: so being back down to where I was is good enough for me! We still have about a week left, so no matter if you met your goal or not, we have ALL achieved amazing results!! This challenge was to keep you motivated not make you :angry: if you didn't meet your goal. Great job all, I hope I got everyone caught up!!

Ok, this is my first post, just joined tonight...I would love to take the challenge and lose 3 lbs by May 5th. I was was banded in Jan..first lost 43 lbs...after second fill have gained about 5 lbs. back...don't know why...think I'm too tight...but- that's another story. I'm ready for the challenge..3 lbs would be good after gaining.

      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.
