Congratulations!!!! My wedding anniversary is Oct 5th! =)

he he, amoung many other reasons, I picked it because it didn't come too close to any other special days, so I could be sure and get anniversary gifts that weren't combined with anything. LOL.

Of course, we all know that once you are actually "married" almost all gifts are combined with something else more practical. LOL. ie, new furniture, re-modeling, broken A/C, bleh, I could go on forever.

October is a great time for honeymoon and anniversary trips, I might add.

Are you guys taking a honeymoon? If so, where to? let us live vicariously through you......

Thank you for all of your warm wishes...

OK here are the details.

Reah and I were fighting the other night about getting into a bigger place. I hate to fight so I figured that I could tease her to see if she would stop by telling her that if we got this place we were looking at and she was good for a few months, then we'd get married...

That was my first mistake.

Here comes the 2nd.

I told my mother (who loves Reah to death) that story, and the negotiations began.. What mother wants, mother gets. lol

I was thinking a nice spring wedding in late April. My mothers birthday is October 7th. Needless to say, she won the negotiations.

Sooooo, now I'm getting married. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about it, it's just my mother drives a hard bargain. lol

THAT will be a great story for the grandkids... rotflmao

Oh.. She's a certified caregiver. She takes care of the elderly in a elder care facility.

Our honeymoon will unfortunately have to wait until next year. I'm thinking about Hedonism II in Jamaica. I would like to go there primarily because children are not allowed... Any thoughts?

We were married Oct 28th 2000. I agree that Oct is a great time for a wedding. We Celebrate our anniversary in Wald Disney World every year. We have a 5 year old so we also take a family trip there in the spring. It is a truly magical place even with all the kids, there are tons of adult things to do there. However some friends went to Hedonism last year and are already planning another trip there, they LOVED it. Best wishes, on the upcoming wedding and future together. My best advice is to always talk about EVERYTHING no matter how small or unimportant, talking is good. ~Mandy

Smatyas, I was going to tell you what kind of mistake you are about to make, but I'll let you figure it out for yourself. That's what I had to do. Our anniversary is the same day as her parents, September 5th.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
