The obvious goal is to lose weight! I'm on track for that. So the other goals are:

1. Exercise. Unlike most of you, I have no interest in running a marathon or a 5K. (I couldn't anyway due to a knee problem.) But I'm thrilled for all of you runners! I do want to exercise more and firm up as I lose the weight, probably through martial arts and dancing.

2. Declutter my life -- I'm finding that as I begin to make changes, I see other places in my life that have suffered from excess, and my goal in 2012 is to simplify, find a harmonious order to my daily rhythm, and get rid of the stuff that I have around me. I guess that I have not only used food in the past; I have also acquired too much unnecessary stuff in my life. So I want to focus on what I truly need and less on what I want. I plan to lighten up in every way!!!

3. Continue to give back -- I do a lot of volunteer work, and I hope to do even more in 2012. No better way to have perspective in life that to be involved in the lives of others who are in need in some way.

4. Honor God

I'm so excited for 2012!! It's going to be a great year!

1. Lose the last 77 lbs to be at my goal.

2. Exercise 4 - 5 days a week.

3. Run (being the operative word) at least one 10K and as many 5K's as I can find.

4. Stop shopping (I don't need anymore clothes, I have them in multiple sizes now).

5. Stop using credit cards (will be easy if I do #4).

I started doing this today. Told my hubby that enough was enough and some things just gotta go! lol I am also gonna start organizing the house and keeping it that way. I think that the idea to lighten up in every way is a great one!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
