August Sleevers?! Where Ya's At?

[ICandothis 108]

Three things......

1) dancing with my incredible husband at our daughters wedding in 2 years and being smaller than him....

2) jogging, and tennis.

3) Traveling with my twin soul. We have been together for 11 years, before this unbelievable man I was a abused wife. We have never traveled far because I was scaredtosit on a plane...

[MsDallasSleever 65]

Hi fellow Aug Sleevers, I'm August 1st!! I'm sooooo excited, I can't wait to be on the loser's bench!

[MsDallasSleever 65]

I forgot to add I'm 28 and i'm currently at 335 pounds. I'm wanting to lose about 130-140 pounds. Whew, that is a lot of excess weight - an entire person. Oh well, that is what we are all here for.

Welcome....it is funny you say that because my goal is to lose about two to two hundred and fortu pounds in total....I was talking to my kids and I literally need to lose an overweight person...or more thanmy husband.....when I look in those terms I just get depressed so it try not too...

Instead I go into who I am going to be.....I have a spectacular life. A career I love and am highly respected in my field. A gorgeous family of 4 of our own kids and 2 adopted...... Coming from being a formerly abused wife and all around relAtionship screw up. Lol....to being married to my twin soul and incredible man who will only drink liquids while I am I the house so I am not effected during my 4 week liquid diet...this is the only thing left to fix or create in my life. I get the mental and physical I am going to have to go through during this process and I have my when I am thin list....but just curious question here....one I have found To be important because with change comes fears.....

What do you really think is going to change in your life? Not just what are you going to do once it's gone but with major weight loss comes major change..,.what do you think or fear is going to change? For me it is what am I going to work the hardest on during this change....for me it is no more having my weight as an excuse....an excuse to not build my career more, an excuse to spend money, an excuse to be moody and miserable....oh oh just don't get it your not fat!!!!! How is it going to effect you???

Knowing this answer and working on it can be the difference between our success and our struggle........really.....what the heck am I going to do without that excuse to hold me back because my fears get in the way of succeeding?.

Whether it is positive or not, healthy or not. Our fat has become our comfort zone. What we are used too..what we use.. I don't know about you but I do not want to be the fat girl stuck in the skinny girls body.....I have spent way to many years being the skinny girl in the fatso's body......

Kj,

I can't wait to meet you and your Mom at the hospital. It is going to be a very good thing for all of us. This is like pushing the reset your life button. Messed up the first time, so we start again and make wiser choices

Hang in there with the liquids, you can do it I am doing about 14 days, Dr. A required 10 for me. I have gained some weight since I sent my paperwork in, so I am giving myself an extra few days to get some more weight off. I am having a family get together this Saturday and that is the end of my eating whatever I want.

Welcome MsDallasSleever!!

[ICandothis 108]

Hello neighbor! I'm from Red deer Good luck on the 4th!

hey you in Airdrie.....Where and when are you getting sleeved?

[ICandothis 108]

Hey Joyce

I took 5 days off so I could adjust to the drinking on day 5 and doing good.....My energy is starting to come back up...I am a fan of fat sick and nearly dead and so I did what they suggest for a juice cleanse I slept a lot of the first three days so I could let my body just heal....Brian my husband worries too much, but I am doing my best to get my Protein in and am a fan of as natural as I can...

that is really my only struggle...I have done so much research so much learning and all the chemicals in the Protein Drinks are killing me...lol....but it is a means to an end...hugs...

kj

[allnewme 262]

I understand. I do know that some people cannot tolerate the Protein powders so they make shakes with a Greek yogurt base. That way you can flavor them as to your own taste. I think it is a while before we can make fruit type smoothie drinks, I would prefer those made with the yogurt base myself. There are companies that make a Protein Powder that is unflavored that you can add to yogurt and other soft foods.

I will check out the juice cleanse

Maybe I need to do that too.

Hey all A couple things...

1) The question of the day yesterday was so much fun yesterday. You all had me either tearing up with happiness because I can't wait for you all to hit those goals....or tearing up because I was laughing so hard. MGM ...i thought about you this morning as I was being a contourtionist lol!!!!!!! So, If you guys would like to keep it going I'll post a question each day, INBOX me a question and I'll post a new one each day. I think that would be a great way for us to all keep involved with the thread and learn new things about eachother.

2) icle1234-Dr barker dallas tx

MsDallasSleever Dr Wade Barker

are you two aware that your both having surgery on the SAME day with the SAME doctor???? How cool!!!! Are you guys going to meet!?! That'd be cool, just saying

3) one of my sleever sisters is having her surgery tomorrow, please keep her in your prayers. She had her endoscopy today and she said she didn't feel a thing ...that puts me at ease since we have the same surgeon

4) QUESTION OF THE DAY!--So, I know this is completely vain, and rude, and selfish ...but im going to go there. I know theres atleast ONE person in your life who you want to look completely hot in front of after you lose your weight...so they think to themselves "wow she lost a lot of weight, she looks great, that bitcccchh!" who is one person you want to make jealous???

I think mine would be my boyfriends step mother. Shes over weight too, or was (haven't seen her in a couple months and she had weight loss surgery , not sure which one)...anyway shes always been a complete b***h to me and when i found out she had surgery I first thought "how the hell is she going to lose that ass" then i thought "i dont want her to be smaller than me" ......now, since im prettier...of course, i want to rub it in her face. She always bragged about her sons (now ex) wife....how pretty she is. But never says anything about her step sons girls, or her other son's girlfriend. So, I want to get completely hot ...throw on something cute and show her that my figure is WAY better than hers! Okay, vent over

Who do you want to show off to??

[ICandothis 108]

ok mine is going to make everyone laugh if you can see the humour in it and I cannot believe I am being this honest....

I was a former abused wife and one of the things used was force feeding....literally...I always laugh now when someone says well it isn't like someone shoved the food down your throat....I am in a better place so now I just answer umm yep they did...lol...for sure not the reason for all the weight gain but still...so for me I am looking so forward to a time when my kids are involved and I have to run into my ex.....hahahahahahahahahahahahaha see the thought makes me giddy.....I have reached the physical success that far supersedes his. Now the weight...I know what an awful goal....but whatever works....*grin*

[pdog 51]

I want to show off in front of all my old high school friends/ acquaintances that I haven't seen in years

Thats always a fun one.

[thetruedream 54]

Well there was friend that I grew up with..since we were 4 yrs. Old. She always brag she being pretty she always found a way to put me down no matter Wat I did. When we were teenagers we use to go to parties and guys would ask me to dance instead of her but she would always say They were maybe drunk. Both of us were chubby. So I met This guy that wanted to be my boyfriend but I didn't accept him I just wanted to be friends. Well he ask her out . But supposedly me and friend had promise no guy would stand between our friendship.. well she married him. Now I saw them last year. I gain a lot of weight ans she is the same she looked at me up and down and said "wow. You look different your husband might be happy with you."

Now I know it wasn't a real friendship at all. Just wanted to be popular like her.

I want to be skinny and for her to see me. And see that I am pretty ans smaller than her..lol I want to walk next.to my husband in a really sexy dress.

I know its bad and cruel but I'm tired of being the ugly one.

And i know I will. Lol

WE DESERVERVE TO FEEL ALIVE and WANTED.!!!!!!!!! Right.???

[Shaniceh01 28]

Mines would be an ex who I loved so much but time after time he broke my heart, even though I've been overweight most of my life, I never had low self esteem. (known as the cute chubby girl that dresses nice). This guy would always go back and forth with me and another girl until I just got tired and it made me feel like something was wrong with now my self esteem is low. I wanna run into him after my weightloss and walk with my head high and my butt poked out and laugh at him if he tries to say hi

[Vixkey 40]

I don't have one person....I just like to see the face in all the people in my past and show them how hot I am specially all the males that were assholes just cuz I am big......
