You deserve to treat yourself, that's for sure. I don't know what I'm going to do. I already bought myself a Harley for hitting the 150 lb lost mark....not sure what I should do to top that.

Take your wife and the Harley to Sturgis.

I plan to:

1. Get a small tattoo - a Chi Rho.

2. Go hiking down Havisupai creek in the Supai Reservation and to the Grand Canyon down and up the Bright Angel Trail.

3. Go to the Glen Ivy spa for a massage, and pedicure.

Are you really hiding a Harley LMAO ? I haven't tried to hide anything that big from my husband yet it's usually jewelry.

Cowgirljane

i know i've mentioned this before - so if you already know - sorry for having to read it again :(

when i was very' date=' very close to goal i got a tattoo

in small italic letters - first letter of each of my 3 grand-kids names with a red heart under each letter

M organ (12) A ndrew ( 9 ) E than (5)

:wub: :wub: :wub:

if you are not a grand-parent its hard to imagine the love "you feel for your grand-children :) "its" an amazing feeling :)

hubby wasn't "thriied" that I got a tattoo :(

but i promised him i wouldn't get another one for the next 58 years :lol:

Cowgirl and all - do something out of the ordinary when you reach your goal

maybe run in the middle of the road screaming I lost 150 lbs WooHoo!!!! ;)

btw

congrats on your amazing weight loss!!!! :) [/quote']

Wow how cool is that !! Might steel this idea! Have no tats at this age but having my two grand kids names /initials would be great!!

How much is too much to spend on yourself when achieving goal? Not saying a Harley is too much, but now I want to up my original goal "present" to myself. Too bad the economy is in the crapper though. I am a violinist and have always wanted a decent pro violin (read 30k, 50k and up), but I don't think I am going to sneak that one by my wife! Lol. Now I think I will need to stick with my 8k one. Just so you know, I am a software developer by day for a major company, fiddler by night. One glory moment was playing at showbox in Seattle with my celtic band years ago. Now, I mostly hang out with jam sessions.

What I really want to do is go to Maui. What I really need to do is to fix the roof.

      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
