Mayo Banditos / Friday Weigh In !!!!



Recommended Posts

The scale finally moved downward today! After fluctuating (mostly up) for the past week and a half, I am finally down another pound and this makes me very happy. I am still feeling restriction but now the problem is getting in enough calories every days. There is no way I'm eating 1000.

Starting weight 214

Surgery weight 199

Today weight 181

Total so far since surgery -18

Finally! I'm down 2 pounds this week after having my second fill on Tuesday. The fill really made a difference in the amount of restriction I'm feeling. It's also made it more difficult for me to eat certain foods. I tried some deli turkey breast the other night and I got the most horrible pain for about two minutes. I guess I was stuck. However, thank goodness, it didn't come back up. Maybe I just didn't chew, chew, chew quite enough. I'm now down 28 pounds!! :tongue_smilie:

Starting wt: 255

Surgery wt: 248

Current wt: 227

My 7/8 adjustment of 1 cc was too tight. Went back this am and the NP took out .3cc which gave relief but still restricted.

Weighed in and the weight confirmed that I wasn't eating or drinking enough as in two days I lost 4 lbs......Too much in two days.......:tongue_smilie:

Now I'm drinking more and feeling restricted but not strangled......Down to 264.

Thank you spideymom! I have been holding steady at the same weight for 3 weeks,bouncing around the same 2 or 3 pounds...so when I stepped on this morning I was very excited. I go for my first fill on Wednesday and excited for that 'full' feeling again.

Hi Sherry, Yes, Go into your page (click on your name), then click on Customize Profile, then, Settings, then edit Avatar, then towards the bottom it asks if you want to download from your computer, check yes and then browse your own photos wherever you have saved them (desktop, documents, my pictures, etc..) I hope this helps. GB

      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.
