I wouldn't call it competitive weight loss, I’d call it a motivation to behave and stay on track during Holiday Eating trendy times a reason to not put that candy bar in your mouth. A reason to drink more Water and take your daily vitamins! We have moved past the chocolaty Holiday with the Pie Holiday right around the corner!

I guess it is competitive if you competing on who’s going to last the longest without eating too much pie! LOL I’m just playin’

I told him that I was doing the same thing as I was before the challenge. Only now I was telling others my results each week. I am working my band to the best of my ability regardless of a competition. I am just happy to have 24/7 support here, my docs office only meets once each month and it is 45 mins from my house. ~Mandy

HI Nana & everyone. Well I am leaving out of town again:0( I will have zero computer access for a least the next two weeks. So since I am so low on the toetum(spelling?) pole I will stop posting. I have enjoyed the venture with everyone & can't wait to see who is the big winner. I will still be cheering you all on & I hope to see some huge results 3 weeks from now:0) Keep up all the great work! WHHOOOT WHOOTT!

      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. 🤞
