November, the Thankful Month



Recommended Posts

Mine is simple: I am thankful for another year that I was able to spend with my family. This past year was a lot better then the one before and the fact that I made it through last year is something else that I am thankful for.

I have no idea what I'm most thankful for, there is so many to choose from. I am glad we have our lapband friends. Thanks for being here for me.

Hi Everyone, I started this thread and didn't post what I'm Thankful for.

Mine is my love of God and My Faith and Trust In Him. There have been some many times these last few months that I have needed financial help. He has brought me through each and every challenge that have come my way.

Next my continued Health. Through my ups and downs with this weight loss journey, he has helped keep me from going back to whence I came from. Even though I wanted to be at my weight goal from day one, my journey this far has taught me a lot. I and you are still learning but we will never, never give up. As the caption you've all seen, "We Are Still A Work In Progress".

So, with that said, we're still here and we still have a lot to learn on our way to our weight goal. I know I do.

Luv to you all and good health.

Hi All, just checking in. Haven't done bad since my last post. Just can't seem to break that 185lb loss. Back to 190lbs, making it abgain 15lbs to lose. Well, as long as I don't out weigh my new clothes, I'm good.

Hope you'll come back in December to log any results you have.

Take care....

Hi All, just checking in. I've just come to the realization that I'm a little depressed. Can't seem to concentrate to lose these last pounds. I keep telling myself I'm going to start back to excerising and don't. I so want a buddy partner that I've posted on several websites for one. You would think that someone would answer since they themselves say they're looking for a partner. How serious can they be.

Well, I've gained back those 8lbs I lost over the last few weeks. So, I'm back to wanting to lose 20lbs before the end of the year. Just barely staying in my clothes now. Don't want to shop for the next size to get into to wear. If I do, then it may be over for me for a while. I keep using my teenage daughter as an excuse not to go to the gym. She likes when I'm home when she comes in. And if she comes in before 8pm, I'l at the gym.

So, I have to buck up and do this. Once I get back into the swing of things I'm good for about 3 months maybe 4/5. But like everything I have to start first.

Well, that's all for me now. Hope you're doing well. Miss you all.

      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.
