Well, I had made it through the holidays but I just sat here in my after holiday depressions and food guilt so I DESERVED A BREAK! I went to the phone and we went on a cruise. We had the best time ever! A MUCH needed relaxing vacation. A bit chilly but it was overall fantastic. We met another couple there too. She had weight loss surgery also so we immediately clicked with talking about the band. Plus, 2 other people at our lunch table said they had the band too! Then, when I was out at one of the shows, the guy next to me had the band.

Here is one of my fav pics......

Hope you had a great time!!

Yep, spur of the moment. Actually, that is when you get the best deals! If you can go at the drop of a hat, then it works out great for the pocketbook! I had a shift change so I got 5 days off in a row and it worked perfectly.

I LOVE CRUISING. It is the only way I vacation anymore it seems. It is MUCH cheaper and it is SO relaxing.

The cruise was a 4 night cruise out of Galveston Texas and went to Calica Mexico and had 2 "fun" days at sea. I HATE Calica, it is a horrible port. But we didn't plan to ever get off the ship so it didn't matter where we went really.

I lazily sat around the pool reading a good book and enjoyed the fantastic food in itty bitty portions. For the first time EVER in cruising I didn't gain a single pound!! I didn't lose any either, but at least I didn't gain it!

Hey Lisa, I gave Travis that smooch and I told him it was from you!!! You know what that crass man said to me? "where's the tongue?" LMAOOOOO!

      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.
