Recommended Posts

Ok, Idahoans! It's time to mark your calendars! This month I'm reminding you prior to 15 minutes before the meetings! *laughs* Hope to see you all there!

St. Alphonsus Support group

Tuesday, May 9th, 7:00pm - 8:30pm

In the white "tent" behind St. Al's.

Usually about 30 people, led by two psychologists. Relaxed invironment.

Meets every month on the second Tuesday of the month.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Idaho Bandsters Soup Night

Tuesday, May 23rd, at 6:30 p.m. at Johnny Carino's at Fairview

and Eagle in Boise/Meridian.

Take the Eagle Road exit off of the Interstate and turn right onto Eagle

Road. At Fairview Avenue, turn right, and then turn right into the parking

lot when you see Johnny Carino's (before the next light).

Last month we met at Outback Steakhouse. Great food and great fun. There were about 15-20 of us.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Walking groups. Some people have started getting together for walking. If you live in or around the Boise area and are interested in finding walking partners, hop onto Yahoo groups and search for Idahobandsters. Join the group and let us know you're wanting to walk. I'm sure there's a group you could join, or you could start your own. See you on the greenbelt (bring lifejackets).

St Al's support group meets tomorrow night! Who's coming??

Hippos Hope and Dasharoo, if either of you make it to the meeting, let me know who you are, ok?

Shackdog, I hope to see you there. Haven't heard much from you lately and I'm beginning to wonder what's up.

Veritas, will you be able to join us? We missed you last time. :P

I'm sure Jackie, Carla, Linda, Dawg and I will all be there. I hope to get to meet some of the newer folks too!

Be there, or be square! *chuckles*

If anyone has any questions about the locations or anything, PM me.

        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!

      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
