Stocky thank you again..... you are the bomb.

Thank you Karen for putting together our monthly meetings. This meeting in particular was awesome. We had lots of time to spend together, very informative on finding out what Protein drinks and bars we like. I think South Beach was the winner.

The food was great without the wait, the bartenders did a great job....Stocky and LSasha.

Thanks you guys for being patient with me, I am not a professional measurement takerer. If there is something else you want to measure, feel free to give me numbers and of what and I will jot them down.

It was great meeting Phyllis and Naiomi (sp). Everyone brings something great to the table. LSasha and Kee you guys have been doing great with your eating and it shows. Kee you are not going to need surgery at the rate you are losing. LOL :omg:

Barbara and Leona it was great seeing you guys and thank you Leona for blowing us away with your AWESOME voice. "Thank You":eek:

Congratulations Connie you are looking and good with your new band, your scars are lovely.

Thanks guys for taking the pictures. It is going to be so important for us to document our weight loss for encouragement. There is nothing like seeing where you came from.

LESSON LEARNED: South Beach Bars are great:hungry:

High, lean Protein and veggie meals and Meal Replacement bars and shakes is key to losing consistantly.

Drinking Water and no calorie drinks is best.:spit:

We have a great MD support group:grouphug:

GOALS: Can you guys please put your goals here so we can continue to encourge each other.

I feel so left out you guys.:think I really wish I could see you guys in person, talk to you, come to meetings as well, but they're so far away, I don't live as close to DC as you guys do.:) So maybe someone can help me start a Balt/Metro area group meeting, to coninside(sp.) with your meeting for those who can't make it down there and need something closer. Any takers?:)

Hanover is cool, actually anything near 695 is good. I'm not sure where we can have a meeting with it not costing anything, like a free room or something other than someone's house. But let me know when you plan on having that meeting at your home and I'll be there :)

      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.
