4th of July/ Summer Exchange Thank You Thread



Recommended Posts

My gift arrived in SD today from jessiebear! Thank you. I received a patriotic beanie babie bear (light blue with little American flags all over it). My Basset hound Ethan tried to claim him. I also got some mango mandarin body moisturizer (Bath & Body Works) & some Mango Sorbetto moisturizing souffle....mmmm smells good enough to eat. Plus a Spring flower scented candle and potpourri and a nice Hallmark card! Thanks so much for the wonderful gifts...you rock! Happy 4th Everyone!

Halloween seems so far away. :( Is there a holiday we can exploit in between? LOL

Kat, Thank you so much for taking this on!! And Jenna for helping her out. I don't know what the cut of duties was, but you guys did a fantastic job. This Gift exchange went so nice and smooth, and I think everyone really had some fun with it!! All the gifts look amazing.

Labor day is Sept 4th this year.

Jenna gave me some tips to help make things run smoother, the substitute sams were her idea.

I think a Labor day exchange sounds good. I'll go ahead and start a thread. When every one does the confirmation this time you should tell me your jobs, and we can try to get job related gifts this time. I like the Secret working class stiff idea!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
