Yes, Lap, post a pic!

dee - I love the phrase "upgraded boyfriend". That's adorable.

Brandy - it will work. You've been so successful with your band. I know you'll do fine once you get a fill. This is just a little bump in the road.

Mini,

I will always remember when you told me about your ex and your present upgraded hubby -- how sweet and loving your new hubby is and how I will one day find someone as special.

I hope I've found that person. I never thought I deserved to be loved or adored. My ex reminded me often of how there wasn't anyone out there who would love me and how I didn't deserve to be loved because I was so disgusting. It's hard to believe that someone would love me - when I hear those words in my head. I'm working hard to push those negative words out of my head and to believe that I do deserve to be loved by someone as sweet and good as my UGBF is.

I know. It's so hard to get that crap out of your head. But you KNOW you deserve this. You give so much to everyone else and it's time you get something back. Your karma bank is full and it's finally paying those dividends. Just enjoy and let it all unfold.

DENISE?!?

Anyone see her lately???

Brandy, Thanks for missing me...we ended up going to see the in-laws in S.Dakota for a few days and got back late Tues. It was so fun though...went to Sturgis, Mt.Rushmore and a few other places. I have to say when we went to Paris in May I thought the Eiffel Towee was amazing, but seeing Mt.Rushmore blew that away!!! Rach & I even went to Water arobics 2 days.

Ms. Dee, Happy Happy Birthday dear. I am sitting here right now eating a piece of cheesecake just for you (Fresh banana cream pie cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory). I figured that you didn't need those pesky calories. You look wonderful and are doing such a great job.

Mal, It sounds like your sons friend is doing better. I will say a few catch-up prayers for him. And continue to keep you all in my prayers.

Deb -- So glad that Tucker is doing better.

Lap, A grandson, what a surprise. But loved just as much!!!

      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.
