raynie: Your a good Daughter. You think a lot of your Mom, and that's great. Cause you only got one. Don't ever forget that "I no you won't."

You take good care of your mom, and it will all come back to you. Just like that check did. You get back, what you dish out. OR The Ying and the Yang as the Chinease put it. That will give you a idea how old that wisdom is, and it's true!!! Shirley.....

Hi Everyone, Its been a while since I have posted but wanted to say I am SOOOOO proud of all of your weight loss! You are all doing great since only October! I am feeling great (2 fills total). I am thinking of getting a 3rd. I have not been faithful about working out, but am hoping this nice spring weather will be a great motivator. Take care and EXCELLENT work in your weight loss journeys!

Ugh...I am definitely going in the wrong direction for our Easter challenge. I weighed in this morning at 192.8...up 3 pounds. All my traveling as really thrown me off my routine. I haven't even been to the gym since the beginning of February! I go in for a fill tomorrow and I really need it to kick me into gear. Back to the gym tomorrow too...

How is everyone else doing??

It's been very quiet lately...where is everyone?

I had a fill today. I'm now up to 2.4 cc in 4 cc band. The nurse that did my fill has a lapband too and she said she didn't get proper restriction until 6 months out. That made me feel better because I was beginning to feel like a freak! :eek: I haven't lost anything in a month!! I really hope this fill will help me lose some. I'm back to the gym tonight with a vengeance.

Jessica, Don't feel bad! We are all like that. But this site helps up to really think and keep it on our minds, so we are kinda changing our daily habits. You can't do it overnight. I feel like I am SLOWLY changing my habits. But we want to do it right this time.

I live in Michigan and it is going to be 56 Degrees today, and I have the day off. YEA!!!!! I will be going for a walk today even with a bad knee.

THINK SPRING!

Everyone

Hi everyone!

Its been so very very wonderful being off of work for a few days! now i'm back and trying to stay positive and refreshed!!

I'm half listening to a conference call and they are talking about the trip they are taking to Salt Lake tomorrow and it made me think of you Jess so i figured i'd log on!

I had my first PB yesterday. It was either from not chewing the broccolli enuf or cuz I was drinking with my meal. very gross. I am usually very good about not doing it but I ordered a mango margarita and didnt finish it before the food came and was NOT going to let it go to waste!!

Enjoy this spring time weather!

better get back to work....

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
