Gosh it's been some time since I've posted anything other than my Wednesday weigh in. I have been having a great time experiencing new and old things. I'll start with last weekend. As car lovers we had a three day Good Guys Northwest National event. I saw many people who had not seen me since last year. They were surprised! I even wore shorts and tank tops to this event.

This past weekend Thurs, Friday and Sat. I took our Motor home and boat by myself to the family beach property. My two sisters met me and we had a girls three day camping and boating weekend. Gosh! drove the MH over two bridges ( I closed my eyes on the small bridge but made it fine! lol)and launched and loaded the boat. I feel so confident in my self. Yesterday I spent the day with some friends at their lake property, while DH & DS were at the Pacific Northwest National Drag racing event for the past three days. Never before would I go anywhere with out Rick (DH) I needed him to always be there for me. I love doing all this stuff and never did because of my weight. Now I"m doing things I love. Watch out next year I"m skiing!!!! and I can't wait!

I used to like in kirkland, redmond, bellevue, gig harbor, silverdale, and seattle. I basically did a lot of my growingup there, and rob and I were never happy with where we lived, so we moved a lot.

My mom still lives there. She lives on the border of renton and bellevue on the lake. she is very glad she has an air conditioner lol

Gosh if you lived in Gig Harbor then you most likely know where our beach property is... just out side of Key Center. Right by Penrose state park... I took the boat into Gig Harbor this weekend. You should see the Narrows bridge. They are building a new bridge right next to it.

I saw it!! I went back a few months ago for a business trip. It was amazing to see the bridge like that! I used to hate driving over the old one. It will be neat to see how they take it down when it is time.

        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
