I am in Edmonton, my builder is Pacesetter. I understand the whole labor shortage in Alberta and I guess I somewhat anticipated problems but it is nevertheless frustrating. I have to say I am happy with the overall work in the home I just wish it was finished!

Becca...I have a very short stop in Edmonton to change planes on my was to Victoria on 18 Apr...I'll be sure to wave at ya!

Mandi: how long do they expect it to take? Who knows with these guys!!! THey were here all day yesterday and they were here this morning for a few hours...they are supposed to come back again tomorrow and then do the whole rip up the floor thing next week. Hopefully it will all be done before I go to BC as I do NOT want Mr Yoda taking any time off work for this...(the whole reason he isn't coming with me is because he can't spare the time off work).

Hi everyone, we are back from our trip and all is well.

The room was small and rather old, the restaurants there were rather crappy and the pool was rather chilly. All that adds up to we would have rather stayed in a better place but cost and location was the deciding factor.

The play, We Will Rock You, was… how should I put this?

It was…

Fun! :lol:

Moving! :dance:

Funny! :)

Outstanding! :high5:

Fantastic! :clap2:

An incredible experience that if you like :hail: Queen in any way shape or form, GO SEE IT! There were numerous Canadian references that were hilarious! The names of the Bohemians brought tears to our collective eyes. Their salute to fallen musical heroes was quite moving. The actors were amazing. Overall it made up for the hotels shortcomings and the cold crappy weather to make the trip worth every penny spent. We would go again if the opportunity arose. A must see. And you all have currently until September to enjoy the performance.

As for the other part of our trip…

The consult went well and they had an opening for the 5th of May. So in a little less than a month I will be joining the Banded side. Took about an hour and a half between the consult and the talk with the head nurse. I have a 10-day pre-op diet (the first test to see if I am worthy to join the Banded Brethren). I know all will go well and the band will work with me, but there is always that tiny voice of dread and disaster that I can’t shut off. So I am a combination of nervous and excited, calm and terrified, with a dash of glad and relieved.

Sorry about the sucky hotel. Where did you stay?

Great news about May 5th Cinque de mayo (sp?). and 3 days after me. Did you also get the yogurt and cottage cheese diet? Do you have to go to the preop seminar? Where do you and the mrs. live?

Glad you loved the show.

Susan

      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.
