I hear ya! 32 lbs down here and i long for the day my body image issues will go way. This is more a mental journey than a physical journey.

Hey my sister sleever, how are you doing with this journey?

Well it's slow going..... I'm down 37 lbs and that includes my preop diet. 28 since surgery and 37 all together.... Jeeze sounds pathetic when I look at it that way....

What did the dr say about purée food? What all can we have? I lost my food with info in it. I have my 2 week appt on wed.

We can have fish, chicken, meat, beans, soy, milk, cheese, yogurt preferably non fat or 1%, fruits and veggies, grains and cereals, limited fats and oils and of course beverages like diet snapple, etc.

Hey girl. I'm in the same boat. I am down 45 lbs (35 of that since my surgery day) boo!!!!! I started at 253 and I'm 209 right now....

I was done on 5/5 and started at 242 was down to 227 on surgery day and now am 192. I wish I was faster loser. I have been at 192 for10 days. I've been eating unplanned but I just leave you have not been working out very well. Let's hope that it improves soon.

Hi everyone! My journey has been slow..here's my report I started at 271, my cw is 228..I'm excited, and it's just hitting me!

I had my VSG on May 6, 2014, and as of today I am down 60 lbs. I am very happy. I feel such a difference already. My back does not hurt anymore when I do simple household chores. I am not out of breath when I walk up a flight of steps. I have been more active and don't need a nap every afternoon. I am living life and loving it! I still have a ways to go, but so far the results have thrilled me. I also don't need my CPAP at night anymore. I am running out of clothes to wear, but that's ok because I will make do until I go on a little shopping spree when I lose a little more. Good luck to all of you going through this major life-changing journey. I do not regret it for one minute and would do it again in a heartbeat!
