The local United Way did a kickoff thing at our building on Wednesday and of all of us that we're down there, couple hundred, guess who FOX 41 caught picking his nose. Click the FOX 41 link then United Way Kickoff under Watch Video. I kept telling myself don't pick you nose don't pick you butt.....

The half face you see is the person I share my cube with just FYI.

I had a good visit with my Dr. today my lab numbers are mostly in the normal range; my HDL (good cholesterol) was 39 and normal is >39 so that's close and my triglycerides are still high but down over 100 points from last time and only about 30 points high.

I suprised the heck out of my Dr he walked in and his eyes got huge. He asked my what I had been doing I reminded him of my surgery and he was still suprised I guess I'm his most successful patient.

Sadly he didn't take me off any medications.

UGH!!!! Up from 206.8 to 207. Had a fill last Thursday- had trouble drinking- didn't eat anything and barely drank for days- had an unfil (the 1/2 cc they put in last Thursday). Did three days of bootcampt this week and GAINED. I'm going to chalk it up to rehydrating my body and wait for the weigh in next week. Going to try and not get discouraged. SO looking forward to 199- gonna clean out my closet when that happens!!!!

Been a while since I've posted but I seem to have found my sweet spot after 2 fills (7ccs total) and I'm now at 214! Can't wait to see 199 on the scale and I'm on my way!

That's where I'm at CA, 7cc, not ready to call it my sweet spot yet but looks pretty dang close. I'm not eating much before feeling full but still having night munchie issues. about 3 weeks out from my last fill and I'm losing about 1 pound a week.

        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
