Hehe...love it! I didn't realize your granddaughter was half-grown! I thought she was much younger. I bet she has the coolest granny in school! :)

She's 14! The absolute worst age! Sometimes I wish she was "little" again. She was my baby diva. When we traveled, we carried a bag full of nothing but hair bows and ribbons.

This was a trip to Graceland. She was almost 3.

Carlene,

Nice pictures. Your granddaughter looks just like you. I bet you look at her and see you all over again.

Except when she gets THAT attitude (you know the one I mean). Then I look at her and see her mother all over again. LOL

My husband and I used to run a group home. We had lots of 14 year old girls. We used to call 14 the "arsenic year". Tough for boys, worse for girls.

Yeah....if they won't take it, eat some yourself.

Every once in a blue moon (especially holidays) my daughter (Cheyenne's mom) makes some comment about "getting my daughter back". It's just talk, and I know that - probably her guilty conscience talking. But it still pisses me off. This past week the gesture was, "If she weren't so spoiled at your house, I might stand a chance of getting my daughter back." I should send her to her mom's house for Christmas break, don't 'ya think? Might do both of them a world of good.

Carlena merry christmas and a happy new year to you and your family, a beautifil one at that. Congrats on doing a superb job ,losing your weight, you look wonderful, I hope this works for me as sucessful as you ,but I am still cheating a little I am 3 weeks into banded life and have lost 8 lbs. I feel I must do a lot better. I feel very good and don't even feel like I had surgery, but my DR. said I did and I will only get a fill when I dont show any weight loss. is this true? I have a long way to go, I see my Dr. on Jan. 5 again. Take care best wishes from Makemelean

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
