ive fallen of the horse and i cant get back on...omg its so hard once you get off track, i really hate myself..ever since my nausea started easing up (i still get it but not as bad) ive been able to eat and i havent been eating the right things, i feel so ASHAMED...i need to really push myself but i feel so lazy, the only time i really get exercise is during gym class every other day and my job which is a cleaning job twice a week...i want to do more but i just dont seem like its happening, i want to i really do, but when i come to do it, i come with excuses..i hate myself for that and i made a meal plan but i only had one thing off the whole thing grrrr!. i think if i had like a lapband buddy my age it would help sooo much cause then we can motivate and exercise with each other but i cant find anybody, is there a place i can search for people like on lapband for teens (dont know the name of the website) and i started gaining some weight back like 2-5 pounds nooooooo! ): ugh..any advice?

Scroll up to the top of the page and hit "Home". Once that page is up, scroll down to different groups. There's a teens and also a 20's group.

Hoping you can pull yourself up soon and get back on track. Try something new for your workouts to get you interested again. Might help. Good luck.

Erin,

Just do it! You know what you need to do, make a plan and follow through. Don't allow yourself any excuses that would allow you to deviate from your plan.

Return to basics. Whenever I'm struggling, I get out my ten golden rules and check them off in my head. Am I drinking all my Water, taking my suppliments, exercising, and not eating more than my alloted ounces? If I can't answer yes to even one of these, I pick it back up and within a week I see weight loss.

I'm not sure if it'll be the same for you, but I'm almost positive (seeing as we do have the same first name and all that <3).

Erin18: Sweetie, you are very young still and I know it's hard for you to stick to a plan of action when you want to be out and about with friends & eating what you want too. However, it's time to get with the program again. You can do it and you know you can. It's all a matter of discipline.

You may be feeling down or lazy b/c you're not getting enough Protein. Protein will give you the energy you need to help movitate you.

So make a plan of action and force yourself to follow it, no matter what. Don't defeat yourself....you deserve to be thinner and you can be if you will practice self control.

        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
