Im having trouble losing the set amount of weight. Im not going to give up, but sometimes I doubt myself. How did you stay focus on losing the weight before surgery?

I'm in a similar boat as you. Still in the weight management phase; and i need to lose 15 lbs by August. I know its doable but its still nerve wracking.

My focus is getting approved for surgery; I'm setting my sights solely on getting the sleeve and starting my life anew.

I believe you can do it too!

I have an app (myplate) on my phone that a person can set for the number of calories (mine is 1000). I track everything I eat. For instance, one I enter the premier shake by scanning the bar code, it can find it and substract from my total. Then, I track my lunch and dinner and anything in between. Also, my fitness tracker is connected so it automatically add my exercise. In this manner, I know everything I have eaten and can stay on track. Hope this helps.

Thank you it does. I have 18lbs more to loose and im just struggling at this point, but I can do it. I apperciate your response so much.

My sister got sleeved in December so I call and ask for help with food and what can I do and what I can't do. I think it is good when you have buddies that you can count on. Good luck. We can do this together.

I was recently given an weight loss goal of -14 lbs. I've lost weight before but the fact that everything is starting now has given me so much anxiety. I just want a snack ( or two)!!! But I told myself I'm going to start Aqua Zumba and water aerobics at the gym and I have to begin following the Pre Op program again...Wish me luck

I've actually gained and I'm probably gonna have surgery in 6-8 weeks. Going to try hard to loose what I've gained.

Hey everyone I got my surgery approval. I’m having surgery on 2/12 day 3 of the liquid diet. Down 5 pounds.
