My brothers second wife had been married 5 times before him...and they had all died I couldn't help but wonder if she was a black widow! They split up, and she moved out of state... but he wooed her back again, and they are living together again. I don't think of her as a black widow now, but what that must have been like losing 5 husbands!

Hi ladies. Sarsar I have my 3 take a portrait together every 5 years. They actually look forward to it. Its wonderful to look back on. The last one they were 20,25, and 30. Yep my crew are. 5 years apart. One day I will take a true family pic when I think I photograph thinner. I don't know why they ask for your weight on US drivers licence. They have your pic. I am sure everyone lies. CGJane the lift was my problem too. Is skiing something u think you will stick with for a winter sport? I remember liking the smell. It was freshh and clean. I am a city girl and fresh air and wide open space was something to be enjoyed. Haven't heard from M2 lately. U out there? Family had pizza yesterday. Sleeve only allows one slice. Hubby put away four slices almost half a pie. OMG! Sunday will be the last food related event for me. Its a tradition from hubby side. The last Sunday of the year his grandma would empty the fridge and cook everything. Not sure of the superstition behind that but it was. A tradition in their family. It has turned into a year end brunch blow out. Hubby cooks for it all Breakfast and brunch items waffles, eggs, biscuits, gravey,bacon, u get the idea plus donuts, Bagels, his friends bring other goodies. This year my contribution if fried apple fritters. Iths called the Feast of Saint Feed Your Fat face! It starts around 10 and last year the last person left at 4. My hubby is a black belt and runs a Karate school. He has zero family here in Cincy but this day all of his Karate buddies come over eat, tell stories, laugh and enjoy. I am glad he does this. He really enjoys it. I am busy helping him host so only nibbling. But it is an all day eating feast with these guys.actually I commented once on how sinful and glutinous this feast was. Hubby was offended. He compared it to Thanksgiving harvest and such. Its the few times in the year his martial arts buddies get together and not in competition. To me its a scene from a Viking movie. Hubby loves it! Once the feast is over I can get back to a normal eating pattern again. Well hang tight ladies we'll be back to normal soon

Brown, laughing at the imagery in my head from "the Vikings!" Ha! Five years apart! I'm amazed. Don't think I would have had the third by that time! Ha! I wanted three and after my son (hyper) decided two was plenty! lol

I finally replied to Alexs invite to become a host, have not heard back from him, he probably had enough "hosts" but I decided after some thought I could commit to it...

If you ask me I think he needs more "super vet" hosts... I'll poke him to make sure he got your response. Ok major headache today.. I'm sure all the crappy eating and drinking this last week had something to do with it.. Detoxing is a b***h. I have a family party to go to today.. It was just thrown at me, it's at my crazy aunties house. I haven't seen these people in years so it should be fun. But I know there will be no good choices for me there so I'll pray for strength. And bring some yogurt..

EDIT!!!!!!!

I have been dreading weighing for three days now.. Because I have given in to holiday crap the last week :(

But I have weighed today, drumroll please.......

The same weight!!! 147!!!!

Hail to the 5:2!

It's funny I've been schlumping around in sweats feeling BIG BIG for several days knowing I've gained. Just got out if the shower and threw on my tightest skinny pants to feel good. :)

      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
