When I drop my weight, I'm going to try (insert answer)!



Recommended Posts

CROSSFIT! I have done it in the past but I'm sorry, I know they say its scale-able but if you are heavier than about 230 pounds you are going to hurt yourself and/or your joints. My plan is to power down to as light as I can get as fast as I can (ideally about 200) pounds then start crossfit ASAP to take me the rest of the way.

I want to take a 'sexy' dance class.

I want to learn how to run, then run a marathon.

I want to take 'hot yoga' and have more control of my body.

I want to shop until I drop in trendy regular clothing and lingerie shops!

I want to travel and be able to take in all the excursions without worrying about being too large to fit in seats/zip lines/kayaks etc.

I can't wait to run and play with my kids and not get tired after 5 minutes!!! <3

I want to go out and see people again.Missed my reunion too. I want to start race walking again and do a marathon. I want to want to have sex! I want to wear my heels again and swim. I want to do things with my grand babies that I never could. I just got off 18 mo of chemo two years ago and my granddaughters other grandma was on chemo at the same time. I remember my granddaughter age 6 telling someone " both my grandmas are sick and can't do anything" that broke my heart. She although age 6 has supported me emotionally through everything drawing me pictures to put next to my bed saying " grandma this picture will really make you feel better" I will be so happy to be a real grandma to her. She can't remember when I wasn't sick and overweight. I want to do everything with her!

I wish you all lived closer to me. I love finding cute/flattering clothes. None of my friends have such enthusiasm for it!!! Wouldn't it be just a hoot for the formerly plus; newly skinny jeans wearing crew to go hit the stores together! Lookout....hot babes in a pack!! :)

Talk to me about cross fit... I need to get those last 10# off. I keep getting slimmer looking (woo hoo) but the scale hasn't moved since Christmas! I do spinning, other stuff at the gym and just started julian michaels ripped in 30 days DVD.

Hmm, do you think my cellulite will magically disappear with the weight? I'd love to wear a bikini, too! LOL

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
