Wow Angie! You are almost half way there. I'm trying not to get back on the scale until thursday...which is my 3 week mark. I hasn't been a friend of mine recently. Though people at the gym have been commenting I look healthier.

Oh and the new pet peeve of mine...why do people ask what weight you strated at if they aren't going to believe you when you tell them. If one more person tells me I can't weigh what I say I do I might just go postal on them.

Can't wait to see all of you.

Melissa

Hello Everyone,

As of tonight, I won't be able to attend on saturday. I have some nasty boggerific bug thing, mostly sinus. I still have to work fulltime so I 'm going to use saturday as my "fall" apart day.

If something changes, I'll let you know.

Thanks Girls! I appreciate it. Kathy keep truckin girl! You can do it! I started exercising a lot harder and it started back up again. I was at a stand still for two weeks but it has started moving. I will try to remember that Nutritionist stuff for you! I am awful about remembering stuff I promise. Sorry!

I understand about the pet peeve. People do that to me too. It drives me nutz but then they compliment on how I look and all is good! :mad: Keep up the great work Melissa! I can't wait to say 50 pounds gone forever! :mad:

Well, I definitly won't be able to make it. I went to the dr's today and I have some type of vocal cord inflammation (I cannot talk right now) he wants me to take antibiotics for the infection and rest my voice until next week. This is hard for me to do, I'm a talker.

Feel better...Oh I have to tell you an exciting thing that happened this morning.

I went for my 7AM walk and saw a friend of mine who knows I have the band. I called her and said hi. She didn't answer, then when I got closer she screamed and said I didn't recognize you thats why I didn't answer.

What a great way to start a day! You better believe I'm going for another walk tomorrow morning!

Ok I called and they don't take call aheads. I told him that we didn't want to sit in the middile like we did before and he said that wouldn't be a problem..They have an area near the windows that will work for us. So if we want to meet in the lobby like last month we can get a table... :banana :banana :banana :banana :banana

They don't take call aheads but you can bet they appreciate the heads up that 10-12 talkative women are coming and we all want separate checks and most of us will likely do a Meg Ryan (what was that movie?) and order special things. LOL! That's okay. At least they know we are coming! Watch out Ruby Tuesdays!

It was great seeing everyone today!! We had a blast and had 2 newbies join us. Sherie for the first time and my friend Kami. We had a great time and we will have a picture of everyone to post soon...Actually I think it will be our best one yet.

Ok we missed a couple of people...Star W & Bondgirl...I hope everything is ok with the two of you and we missed you.

Go ahead and mark the date for next month...Dec 17th. It will be out last one...for this year. haha. We chose that day becase we have Parvathi that is going to join us so we wanted to plan it around her visit to the states.

Have a great rest of the weekend and we will chat later. Lets keep lossing ladies!!!

      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.
