Hello All:

Just want to let you know that I had a wonderful time meeting with my LBT skating buddies today at Red Bird Skate! We usually do more talking and supporting than skating, but when we skate, we are burning off some serious calories.

What I like most about our skate meetings is that we don't have to be good skaters; each time we get on the skate floor, it builds our CONFIDENCE.

Most lap band support meetings I've attended in the past involve eating at a restaurant, which is cool. This activity, however, encourages exercise, movement, and supporting one another.

I feel a special bond each time I meet other banders "in person". We will be skating again soon, so come out and join us!:clap2:

I used to Skate Red Bird every Friday and Saturday night when I was a kid. Let me know when you plan another Skate date. I would like to join. I'm pre-band Nov 13th. But I think a great way to start my excersise program. There is another rink off of Ledbetter in Dallas called Southen Skate- an adult skate rink on Sundays, I think.

I've been reading the older posts and it sounds like ya'll had a great time.

I live in Shady Shores which is just south of Denton, about 30 miles north of Dallas. I live right off I-35.

I haven't been on skates in probably 30 years.... ;)

But it sounds like an awful lot of fun. Maybe if you choose a place north of or this side of Dallas, I could join you if I'm off.

Wow!!! Sounds like fun!! Wish I was in the Dallas area. Actually I spend 6 days a week in a skating rink. My daughter is a competitive roller skater. In fact, she will have her Regional competition in the Dallas area in June of this year. I skated competitively as a teen also, but havent really skated since I put on so much weight. I will for sure get back into it soon though. Im sick of being a bystander.

Maybe I can join you guys some day soon.

      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.
