Last month there was snow on the ground and it was freezing here in Ottawa...today it is over 30 degrees and B~U~TI~FULL!!

It makes me want to run out and cook myself in the soleil!!!:D

I got a super short haircut at lunch and it looks like i lost 10 pounds and i might, just might get another tattoo on Saturday :guess

I feel light and happy it's so awesome to have hope for the future

Have an awesome week-end people!!

Glad to see you with such a happy spirit today Chantal... let me sit next to you for awhile and perhaps some of it will magically improve my attitude! Sunshine can really do wonders can't it? Rain... Rain... and more rain here. Blow some of that happy sparkle dust towards Wisconsin if you get a chance!

I have a big cartoon turtle on the whole top of my foot,he has at least 8 colors from light&dark green,yellows and whites. I also have a black work bird on the inside of my wrist.That one is my own design,the wing is up, kinda shy like and the only color is his bright blue eye.

I didn't get a chance to go in for my next one but it will be an opened zipper on the back of my calf.The zipper will be bursting with flowers,hearts and things,to soften the harshness of the zipper.

I always said i would get just one but i changed my mind and now want the zipper and orange bubbles for the turtle as well as

a symbol on the back of my neck and the other wrist with something with alot of color.

You're funny!!:D

It doesn't hurt at all!I've had two C-sections and this lap surgery

and the pain is not the same.

When they're doing the tattoo they have to stop about every three to five seconds to wipe so they can see where they are at,it gives you a break so it's not continuous.

My mother's b-day is before my and my twin so the three of us went out for a girlie day last year.My Mom got a pretty hummingbird on her shoulder(her first)and my twin got a butterfly on her wrist(her first too)now they both want more as well:p

I'm such a bad influence!!:guess

Well Chantal... let's see how I handle the ole cut me open and band me pain... I see myself being a big ole crabby a$$ baby.:nervous BUT ... maybe I will surprise myself! I've really only had one surgery in my life... that was on my wrist to have a cyst removed. And... I appear calm when I see a needle coming at me... but I'm a nervous squishy ball of nerves on the inside! We'll see... maybe when I hit the 50lb down mark. (o: I think my conservative hubby would birth a bird if I did....hehehehehe. Hmmm... maybe you are a bad influence!

        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
