Honey, I broke up with my fiance last February! A few days before Valentines! I had a broken heart for months and months-- then I decided to change my life and I got the sleeve in August. Now I am seeing an amazing guy and beating guys off with sticks-- lol j/k... kind of. Love yourself this Valentines day and you will find the person of your dreams soon enough!!!! :wub:

I wouldn't say it sucks for me... I'm blessed to have a few "brothers" who always do sweet things for me... I call it singles Awareness Day!! I don't like the pressure of holidays... heck, we should be good to each other each day!!

This is my 9th Valentines alone (not that the ones before that were anything to brag about) and while I would rather be alone than with him-It does suck! I am the designated babysitter so my kids can go out with their spouses. I'm glad that Ms Steel has found someone. She's so cute. But at my age the single guys are all either bald or want me to support them!!

Really tho-and kind of Off Topic. I worry about meeting someone (after I lose weight of course) and having all that loose skin (under my shapewear) I have seen after pictures from some of the surgerys and they almost look worse than the before! Or having all those scars from the WLS and/or the Cosmetic sugery.

Plus that fact I have barely talked to another man, outside of business, in almost 40 years!

Oh the dilemma's I'll have to face when I look fantastic! :embaressed_smile:

Thanks-I have heard that being overweight keeps the wrinkles from showing-at least on your face.

I'll probably look like I'm 100 when my face gets sagging. Saving up for a face lift first thing!!

I like bald guys! :-) Full disclosure: my husband shaves his head, and I think Sean Connery is sexy. LOL

Turn that around, if you are single, which I was many years after a divorce, a freind shared with me what she would do. She planned that day to go all out and pamper herself. Nails, toes, facial, nice outfit, anything that you usually might not do all at once. I started doing that say the last 5 years before I remarried and I must say it helped me alot. Not only to pamper myself but you can have 1 of 2 attitudes, you can sit around and say this sucks b/c I am not sharing it with someone or 2 you can show yourself some much needed love and selfworth. It does not have to be the things I said but things that are meaningful for you. You deserve it and are worth it.

Go out on a limb.... I did all those things, got dolled up and went out and would find something fun to do. There are a lot of singles feeling the same way you are.

P.S. for the record, you do not need someone, to complete you, it might be fun, but until then love yourself!!!! YOU ARE SO WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!

I hate Valentine's day - I think the thing that sucks is seeing all the ladies in the office getting nice floral arrangements from their hubbys, and knowing that I won't be getting jack.

P.S. I love me, but it would be nice to be appreciated/admired by someone else.

LINDAS-I retract my statement, I actually think totally bald guys are uber sexy. What I should have said is "Guys with combovers"

And in reality if the guy treated me decent, I wouldn't care how much hair he had!!

Too bad we don't all live close-We could go out to dinner together for Valentines and share 1 meal!!!!

I'm married, most of the time it's happily. LOL!

However, I've never been one to get into Valentine's Day. It's just not a big deal to me.

I LOVE the idea of taking the day to pamper yourself though.

        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.

      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
