I was scheduled to leave at 5:15 this AM and missed my flight... I'm always early to the airport whenever I travel and this time i took my time...got there 20minutes before boarding. i'm so mad at myself! Why must i do this to myself?! Self Sabotage...I guess. I called Samuel (the driver) and he was very nice about it. He said i'll be the last one to pick up. I'm on my way to San Diego now. I should be there by 2:00pm...at this point no turning back. This is real and i've gotta do this!!

Why the sad face?

Novam, I still don't know your face. And I'm still doing that too. "Maybe I'll get the flu, or bronchitus, maybe this snow won't stop (Missouri) and the flight will be delayed by days. Maybe maybe maybe what if I have an abnormally large liver dispite the preop, and they send me home?"

I should probably be on something for this.

The sad face is because i'm having major "aha" moments. With Grammy highlighting my "missed flight/ self sabotage" it's become so real to me that i'm obviously going to have to learn to deal with emotions i was covering up or suppressing with food. I'm realizing my obesity is much deeper than my love for carbs etc! Thank you for your words of encouragement Grammy!

Couldn't agree more!!! You missed your flight!! It happens. I really don't think it's self sabotage!!!! If it was, you would have REALLY missed it ;) Not missed it enough to get in by 2:00!! You're on your way and you're going to so great!! Yes, at some point we are all going to deal with our emotional baggage when we drop some of our physical baggage...

But... For me?! I'm late. A lot. Do you wanna know a big secret about why I'm late?!? Because I'm fat and lazy with very little energy!!! And I when I was down 100lbs, I was late a whole lot less!!!!!! Lol

Cut yourself a break!! This is a big deal and you're allowed a few mistakes along the way! Pick your chin up and quit feeling sorry for yourself. This is a GOOD day and we're all here cheering you on!!! Have a great trip and a wonderful surgery!! Keep us all updated on how you are feeling!!! :)

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • 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
