Good morning Maria, I just wanted to let you know how you've inspired me. All yesterday I thought of you every time I ate. I chewed till I thought my tongue would fall out. I never got stuck all day. So, today I thank you. I'm gonna keep thinking of you when I eat until I change my habits. I hope you don't mind.:rolleyes:

You definitely are inspirational, Maria! I'll have to follow Cloe and try to remember how you do it!

And yes, Sean the Leprechaun. I also got notes from the Tooth fairy, the easter bunny, and Santa!

Hey Maria...you are doing well for a leprechaun!!

40 years married!!! YOWZERS!!! Congrats! I'll be hitting the 5 year mark in a couple of months!!! LOL I guess I'm a newbie in your eyes, eh?

Yay for you not getting stuck!

I've slimed a few times but not for long. Also had a crushing pain in my chest twice but it only lasted about 2 mins each time (thank GOD cause I thought I was gonna die!).

Anyhoooo.....yay you on your progress!

Well at last i am on my way to becoming a Canadian citizen, i have been trying for the last three years, and because of a mix up with the first name everything got held up.

I had to go to Barry today to take the test for citizenship, except because of my age i did not have to take the test. So six weeks from now i will officially become a Canadian citizen.

Hurray for me.

Maria :canada: :canada:

        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
