I watched Oprah yesterday (rare occasion for me) and it was really neat. She has some of her staff members doing a 12 week boot camp... I think this might have been an older show....

Anyways... she had them working out 8 times a week!!! Now that makes my time look shabby.

So today I decided that I will be better about my working out. Yes, I do some every day... TONS on M-W- and Fridays... but I am going to push it hard this week.

Oh, on a nasty note... I have a HORRIBLE boil on my tummy right above my belly button. Went to Dr. yesterday and he put me on liquid Bactrim... EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, it is gross and makes my stomach hurt... If you have ever had a boil, you know they are the worst things to have on the face of the earth!!! HATE THOSE BASTARDS! :0)

OK, enough of me running my mouth.... Thanks so much for all the compliments. I felt like a star that night Telly!

Hi Everybody! I'm home!

I spent a week in the south and STILL lost 2 pounds! w00t!! I went in to see my surgeon today and after much debating we decided to go ahead and add .5cc to my fill, putting me at a total of 1.5cc. I'm losing well and have been able to make good food choices but I started noticing my quantities increasing over the last couple of months. Since that is my downfall, I decided to get the fill. So, I'm on liquids for a couple of days but after eating out every meal for the past week I am looking forward to the liquids!

As of today, I have lost 80 pounds. Ten more to go to reach my goal of 90 by July 9th. I have 2 1/2 weeks and I'm determined! I'm sure I have a lot of Water retention because of the salty foods I was eating down there. But the good news is that I STILL haven't eaten bread! The worst I did was have a bit of fried ocra, but hell...who can be in the south and not eat ocra?? I did get plenty of exercise everyday though. My legs are so sore from all the walking we did!

I checked on the board a couple of times while I was gone, but this afternoon I will go through all of the posts I've missed in the GFG Club thread and get caught up. I missed y'all and I'm glad to be home and not 10 pounds heavier! *laughs*

Welcome home P'Nut! Glad you had a good time and enjoyed the okra! Fried okra is my favorite.

And it looks like my weight loss is picking up steam again. Thank GOD! I've decided I don't want to buy a wedding dress unless I fit into a size 12! I have about 4 months to get there from my current size 16.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Welcome back PNut.

Lins12 I thought I was having heart trouble and the dr. had me do a stress test which didn't show up anything. Finally after a trip to the ER after a big episode I had a heart cath done and my heart was fine. THANK GOD!! I was having panic attacks! My DR. never thought of that I guess. I don't see him anymore anyway, I got my anti depressive upped and haven't had one since then. I think some of it may have just been knowing what it was. I had never had any until 2 summers ago after I had knee surgery. Hope yours go away soon!! Good luck!

My doctor up'ed my dose of Paxil so I am hoping to be back to normal soon. I am so thrilled. I think it will really help my compulsive eating too.

Thanks for the support. YOU GUYS RULE.

I've updated the Members and Honors pages. Thanks again to Lins for helping us out while I was away. It sure made my job easier! *hugs Lins*

There are some new folks on the Honors Page this week, and many have moved up to higher brackets! Great job everyone!

How are we doing on score cards? Everyone keeping them up to date and kicking serious bootie? You'd better be! I'm back, motivated, and ready to see Onderland! Who's going with me??

      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.
