New Years Resolutions!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! Now since we are sleeved and have help with this weight loss issue of ours, losing weight isn't really a New Years Resolution. So what is everyone's resolution? Mine is getting back to the gym at least 3 times a week. . . This is just a bad as trying to lose weight without the sleeve! :lol:

Wow, I just really haven't thought of one really... of course mine WAS always to lose weight. That's happening now, and even when I'm not trying - it's happening.

Anyway, I'll say I will try not to become so hot headed all the time. ;-) I know that will be good for my health and blood pressure!!!

TO GET PREGNANT ! ! !

In all seriousness, I quit making resolutions a couple of years ago. I don't ever stick to them then I feel like a toolbag so I just quit making them.

I'm not pregnant again this month so we have just one more month (January) to try to conceive on our own then our insurance will start making me jump through hoops to get fertility treatments. If I disappear from the forum, it's just because I'll be on Clomid, and I'll be a raging psycho, hormone-ridden, lunatic that is trying get knocked up LOL.

Stop skipping my ballet ballet classes. I skipped like 1/3 of them in the fall semester. Exam weeks are particularly bad for it, but this semester I think I only have 2 exam weeks during ballet.

For me, it's going to be about consistently exercising! I am going for consistency here, not quality :-).... Which isn't to say I don't want quality, but I want it to be one of those ingrained habits I don't fight myself over all the time!!! ( I know, that's a bit boring). But, I'll add Coop's as well. We all need to be our best cheerleaders and sometimes I am too hard on myself! Patience!!!

I think I'm going to start doing things for me. Because I"m a mom, and I will be working soon (God willing), I don't often just do things for me, such as taking art classes, maybe learn French -- I don't know -- things I normally would put on the back burner -- and you know what? If I keep putting things on the back burner, they'll stay there!! So I'm gonna do something for me! :)

I have been slowly making the changes needed before my surgery in Feb 2011. What I really need to do is get more control of my carb intake it is definitly out of control over the holidays.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      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.
