Recommended Posts

Yoda,

I noticed the ticker tape. Way to ROCK!!! I must change mine....but I'm a computer blonde so it takes me a while to get it straight.

Hope you're having a great week.

Mookie-Quite simply the bestest dog in the world. SPCA special who was dropped off because she was an unwanted Christmas gift (11 years ago). Her original name was Princess but she aint no Princess. She's brown with short stocky legs, super loud bark (louder than our Newf and Shep) and tenacious to boot. I see myself in her. She kicks ass for those who can't and so you don't have too. She typed this...she's such a ham!

Mine is a lyric from Dave Matthews Band from a song called 'Lie In Our Graves' He talks about so many of us not taking action or doing anything with our lives. "I can't believe that we would lie in our graves wonder what things might have been..." 36 is another DMB song that's a favorite.

Okay....so mine is boring and not very original....but I couldn't think of anything else. I look at you guys with all the cool screen names and I think geez, why can't I be that creative. So here it is: Becca, short for Rebecca and 77, the year I was born.

Mine is ancient and boring. Doddie is the nickname Doreen's use and 63 stands for my age. So many people use Doddie, I had to add something to it to be able to call it my user name. Doddie

      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.
