I am going out of town tomorrow so I will go ahead and check in today at 278.4, less than 1/2 pound from my goal I am going to call it complete unless I gain a bunch of weight next week.

I am driving up to Lansing Michigan tomorrow to by a new ukelele, I told you I was going to learn to play it this month and I have 5 songs I can play so far. The bad part is that I learned to play "YMCA" to annoy my wife and it turns out that this is my best song.

You're driving almost 300 miles each way to buy a Ukelele? You must REALLY LIKE the ukelele!!! I bet YMCA is awesome on it!!

Well have a fun trip and Happy Birthday!! If I didn't have to work tomorrow, I would be tempted to meet you in Lansing just so I could hear YMCA being played on a Ukelele!

Joan checking in, no weight gain or loss. I'm blaming it on my new scale! B)

Larry~ Happy Birthday! Have a great ukele adventure. I am glad you have met your personal goal so well! :P I'll be at the YMCA camp next week for the whole week. Like Amy said, we need a youtube video of you playing YMCA!

My personal goal for this month was to get together w/ friends at least once a week. I have been having a great time achieving this goal. :D

TGIF!

Joan

Happy birthday and happy ukelele hunt, Larry!

I'm down to 232.5, which gives me a 3.5 pound loss this week and puts me .5 pounds from my goal. Also I've done 3 days of Water aerobics this week and I'm hoping to head to the gym early tomorrow morning.

Ok, my hubby hide the scale from me...because I was weighting myself everyday and not liking what the scale said. But, my last weigh in was on Thursday, so I weighed in at 180. I lost 0 lbs this week! :-( this was actually my first fill week. Very discouraged this week. Hope it's better next week.

P.s. I met one of my goals, I fit in my size 14 shorts/pants (from 2yrs ago and they still had tags on them. ) and they are loose! :-) and been walking and swimming this week.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
