Costa Rica - Im thinking Jurrasic Park.

Those pix were wonderful. My personal favorite was the one where you were on the chez taking a quick siesta! My ideal vaca spot is on the beach in the sun & sand. You took me there for a brief minute - thanks!

And the waterfall and waterpark - just beautiful!

The orphans were heart touching. I bet you wanted to take each one home!

Oh, and Mary, on the food tray... the loooong round thing in the middle of the tray, what was that? Looked kinda weird.

There was a set of twin girls that were about a year old that I would have loved to bring home with me! They were all so adorable and you could tell they were surrounded by lots of love from their care givers. You can see the twins dressed alike in a stroller in the second picture.

      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.
