Gone for Good Club - May 2006



Recommended Posts

i feel like crap with a capital SH. I went to the doc's office again today, cause the pain pills aren't killing the pain any longer, and I can't swallow again. I went in, and they took blood. they are going to see what they find with that. the guy was kind of a jerk. "i want you to come back and see me next week. We will not do surgery for this cause it does not warrant it. But if your white count is high I am gonna admit you. If you are not better tomorrow I am going to admit you. If you show any signs of dehydration in your blood draw, i am gonna admit you."

BUT NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT THE HELL I HAVE!!!

And they refuse to give me anything that is going to kill the pain. They sent me home with percoset. They gave me morphine in the hospital. This stuff numbs my body and my brain, but it does nothing for my throat. the pain will not go away.

ok. i am done bitching. i feel like such a wuss. but this is just killing me.

Ok, listen up everyone who wants to be in the June Challenge...

Complete your Spring scorecards and get your amounts tallies on the scorecard only. I'm going to go through them, and might recruit Tricia K to help me, to verify the totals you came up with. After we feel sure that everyone has completed the cards and we have verified the totals, I'll announce the winner. This might take until Friday, so please be patient.

As for the June challenge. Tonight, after everyone has weighed in for the normal GFG weekly weigh in, I'll be starting the June GFG Club thread. I will start it just like I did this month's thread, with the Members Page, the Honors Page, the Challenge Rules, and a blank Score card for June.

The first day of the June Challenge scorecards will be today, May 31st. So you will get to count any exercise you did today on the Spring Challenge Scorecard as well as the June Challenge scorecard. I did this so we could keep in line with the Wednesday weigh ins.

Please dont post your totals anywhere but on your scorecards. And there's no point in giving me your starting weight for June. Just wait until the June thread starts and you can put all of your info on your own card.

I will close out this thread with a link to the June GFG Club thread (like I usually do) and then you can copy and paste a scorecard and get it started just like you did for the Spring Challenge.

Make sense? I hope so! :)

H 240 C 194 (-6 this week)

4 more lbs before I hit 50lb mark! :)

Just to let everyone know, the sauna suit works very well for me. I have bought my 5th one to date since surgery b/c the elastic dies out after a few washes. When I run on the treadmill or bike with my suit on , (I never wear the top and bottoms together, always separately for fear of dehydration) I drop 2 - 3lbs. Alot of it is Water weight but somehow it all stays off. I lose inches like crazy. When I finish biking, about 2 lbs or more of water spills out of my pants legs and drips out of my sleeves.

P.S., if you do decide to buy one, you can find them in the sporting goods section at Wal-Mart and they are $6.99, comes in small/large large/xl xl/xxl. Remember to drink lots and lots of water prior to wearing this suit and drink water afterwards to ensure hydration. If you don't like the feeling of sweat and stickiness or having a hefty bag feeling then this suit is not for you.

Ok, long lost Terri is trying to come back!!!!!!!!! I haven't got on or near a scale so I can't update my info. But It is so funny to read about the sauna suit. I just bought one and I have it on right know. I just got off my bike and I am sweating like a STUCK PIG! and I probably smell like one too!LOL I look like a fat lady in a large black garbage bag! :)

Well I just wanted to stop in and say Hi! I need to go take a shower and then I'm off again. My great neice has a ball game tonight!!

Loves to all and happy losing!

I'm getting confused between my scales and my Dr. scales. I think for the June challenge I will just use my scale! I feel like I have lost more than 6 lbs. this week, OH well! 6 is good, I'll take it!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
