:help: Is it just me or have others not been able to access these boards occassionally? Until an hour ago I could see the main page and could send PMs. If I want to read anything I get a technical error page. This happened to me last week too. I really value this site and if my computer's the culprit I'd like to get help on how to fix it!!

Thanks,

Hi Meg....no it's not just you. I haven't been able to get on for two days. I emailed the web server and jsut got an email back that it's up and running. This happened about two weeks ago, too. It's amazing how much we miss it, isn't it? I'm glad to be back!

I didn't realize it was down. We were gone too! Took off to the Northwest Sprint car tour!!! GOT DIRT!!!! Spent Friday night at the track, and Saturday we took off on the bike and went for a 100 mile ride.. my first time riding a distance. IT was great! then back to the track for Sat. night racing and the main event! Mister Tony Stewart's cars came in 1 & 3 it was a fun night! boy did we get dirty! Back home early this morning to get stuff done around here now off to the hospital to visit dad and then to dinner for our Anniversary! 23 great years!

YEAH DeAnn!!! So glad to hear Smoke had a good weekend somewhere. Bristol was boring and with the site being down, it was an uneventful weekend. :phanvan Kasey did pretty well coming in 12th.

ha ha maybe the administrators got wind of all the crap here and shut it down...lol. I emailed them twice and they finally came back with "we know". I think they need to upgrade their system.

Woohoo DeAnn! So glad the weekend turned out great!

We had a blast in Spokane, WA over the weekend with my mom and some her friends. So, even tho I was on the opposite side of the state, I was in the same state with you! lol

Last night we had dinner on the lake at the Coeur d'Alene resort (30min east of Spokane) - very posh - the halibut was to DIE for! All in all a great weekend. Now here it is Sunday night and time to get ready for another week of plain ole living.

Hope everyone else got some off-line time as well!

Suggestion:

Get rid of any thread over 1 year old that is not band related

I am with Telly (the long or the short haired version!)!!

The old threads are not very helpful. Band info changes so often that the old posts are almost useless.

NO WAY. Those old threads were valuable to me during my research and preband and post band for that matter. I still find a lot of the info valuable. Even if it isn't band related specifically, it still holds value. People are not forced to read anything they don't want.

      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
