I am so FRUSTRATED! I've really been on track this week. I've been getting all of my Protein in, eating healthy foods, taking my vitiamins, drinking TONS of Water and have been to the gym every day (something i've NEVER done) this week and I'VE NOT LOST A POUND!

I just dont get it... I feel cheated. I went to a bday party sunday and turned down cake and ice cream. I've not touched the candy dish at work all week (which is saying alot for me). No ice cream at night for desert. I've really put forth more effort this week than I have in a LONG TIME.

I was really hoping this would get me back on track and start losing those last 8 pounds to get me to ONEderland.

Any advice?

Remember that you can get stuck. I find that I can go a week or so and lose NOTHING (gain nothing, either, which is good but still......)! Then, I get on the scale and I'm down a pound and a half. Go figure!

You just have to keep doing the right thing (and do yourself a favor and don't weigh every day), and it will happen!

It happens to me too but you have to stay in line with what you want. I stopped going on the scale.. I really just go on like x2 a month because I dont like to feel disapointed... but I continue...& think of what Im going to look like in 2 years.. :w00t:

parrothead kathy is right...i wouldn't lose anything for a few weeks and then all of a sudden i would go down 8-12 pounds in a month...mariposta gave great advice 2...stay off the scale!!!!!!!! it will drive u crazy!!!!! i didnt have a scale and never bought one...the only time i would weight is at my doctors appointment.

Thanks for the advice. I'm a slave to the scale. I really am. When home on weekends, I find myself checking several times a day. I know that cant be healthy!

I guess I have to remember that even tho I've done so well this week, the week before I was BAD. Think maybe those croissants are catching up with me and that I didn't lose any this week because I would have GAINED had I not tried so hard this week? Hmmmmmm....

Think so?

      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.
