Texarkana Bandsters



Recommended Posts

Susan, you know what box I'm talking about!!!! Don't play that with me. lol

Julie... if you think about it, BBQ has lots of fat in it. Therefore, I really should have not eaten it. But... I was hungry for it, so. bread is a big no, no for me. I just can't swallow it, which is fine with me. I don't need it anyway. I do miss hamburgers, but it's ok, I am losing and it doesn't matter.

Gotta git, yall have a good day!

hey sugar bear i need to confess something. i'm only 26lbs from my goal that i set for myself i'm sure dr h and k would not agree that it is a good goal i think my bmi will still be around

27-28 but this a goal i felt i could reach i will be below 200 for the first time since 1974 (the year i got married i think i was at 180) this goal is a tad shy of that but heck i'm an old lady so 195 sounds great to me. oh and i am 5'9" so i think i can carry that much weight and not look to fat. i should be in a size 16 or maybe 14 at that goal!!!

Susan, I am with you all the way. It is wonderful to reach a goal. Who knows what will happen next? DH says he will bring me to the meeting. My surgeon called and rescheduled my apt for Thurs. to Tues. POOEY! We also have to go to T town on Wed. So that will be three days in a row going to Texarkana.

Betty are you back?

Take care everyone.

thanks sugarbear! The cowboys are playing and I was sure hoping to get home and watch it. But of course, I would miss them for the support meeting. Especially my first one. See you there.

Teresa, you probably won't miss too much of the game. Starts at 8 right? You will know who I am, the one with the purple cast. I won't be hard for anyone to spot. LOL The only reason I wouldn't be there is if DH got off to late to get me there.

GRRRREAT Julie! Gosh, I guess you have to start the slimefast immediately! Like yesterday?! Stick to it, it will be worth it and it is for your saftey. Shrinks the liver. I am assuming the meeting will still be at Wadley, at 7:00 p.m. It hasn't been posted yet on noscales.com For you newbies, that site is where Dr. H post the seminar dates and support group meetings. Texarkana is always the second Monday of the month. Other info is also posted there.

Yes, I started the Slimefest, yesterday afternoon. I am so excited!!

I've been going back thru the threads and have read about how everyone made it thru. Ya'll had a really great support group going on. Still do. I have learned a lot. This is really going to a life changing event, for the rest of my life. But I'm looking forward to it.

This Monday is a govt. holiday so I wondered if they would still have their meeting?

      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.
