This is hard to do, actually. All I can seem to think of are things I have to deal with every day. But here are the good things:

1. The cup of coffee my DH leaves for me in the bathroom each morning when he leaves for work (before I get up). Every day that makes me smile.

2. The "Mommy's home!" I get from two beautiful young ladies when I walk in the door every afternoon.

3. Taking pride in the fact that as a health insurance broker I can actually help people. (I am the only one I know who makes that a priority over just making a sale.)

4. Knowing that I am bringing home enough bacon to feed my family and provide for our futures.

5. My online distractions, LBT and others.

1. 20 minutes of solitude in the morning before anyone else gets up.

2. Taking the long way to work. It takes me 8 minutes rather than 5, but I get to go through farms and vineyards. Beautiful.

3. The angel that looks after me at work so I can do what I have to do. She runs interference when needed, screens my calls, cuts through any bureaucracy that befuddles me, respectfully and gently bullies me to get my paperwork done and makes me tea when I'm tired.

4. A few minutes each day to listen to music alone. My tastes are sometimes quite alarming to others.

5. Anticipation of the evening home with my family and pets.

1. DH, my life companion and absolute best friend. Our adorable dog. My job - I absolutely love what I do and have a very strong passion for doing it the best I can. Anticipation of the great things happening the following weekend. Spontaneous shopping trips. The time DH and I put aside every day when we get home from work just to lay in the silence and hold each other.

Guess I only have one.

        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
