Afternoon chickies,

I am back from the MD. My BP is down from 149/95 to 122/79. Yay. sadly, that is medicine included blood pressure control but we are getting somewhere at least. I was also down 10 pounds on the MD scale from last month. Cool. The clocked me at 210 with my jeans and jewelry and SHOES on! At home I am stripped naked and the scale said 209.5 today. Funny.

I have not been to the gym yet this week. I am frustrated with that. I seriously have not had time. I was running all over the hospital at clinical last night and doing some serious work so that is the closest I can count for exercise. That and I did some upper body weights yesterday am. That has to be worth something. I just really need a good strenuous gym workout and I intend to get there tomorrow AM. Kick my butt if I don't please.

Clau-so scary about the fires. I continue to pray. It is just insane!

BK-14's??? Wooohooo. Rock those hot pants girl!

VA-I hope the jobbers call you tomorrow with an offer. You are number one to us! It will be easier to get back on track when you are back at work. I can easily graze all day when I am home. What is the saying...idle hands are tools of the devil? In my case they are tools of food transport! ::gasp::

sweet-way to go on your SB stick-to-it-ness. I am definitely in a make up a word mood today. I have done the couch to 5K. It is fun to try to train for something. A little more exciting that just working out because you get to monitor your porgress. Keep it up!

I have to run and get the girls. Have a fantastic day.

Kaydoll - wtg on the 10 lbs. Do you think its due to the new fill? I'm glad your bp is down too, I'm sure all the exercise has really paid off.

BK - hows the house coming along? Are you still going to school? I remember last year you were trying to juggle job, school and life.

Sweethot - I printed out phase one of sb and thought hey I can do this. Then for supper I ate pirogies - I only ate 2 and was miserable, I don't know why I push the fricking dough issue! Sorry to hear the little one was sick.

Bman - hon we're worried about ya, check in soon.

Claud hang in there, its gotta be terrifying. You're in our prayers.

Boo - good to hear Betts is coming along, if you are picking out paint it won't be too much longer.

Va - I know what the grazing is like. I'll be fighting it next month when I get laid off. Once you get back to work you'll get back into the bandway again. You sound like you have alot of supportive friends, thats good.

Nat - what up ladylove?

Nikki did I tell you that you look great? And how exciting to feel the flutters of a new life. I am one of the few and insane who absolutely LOVED being preggos. The only complaint was when the babe got hiccups at midnight when I was trying to sleep.

How's the challange coming? I walked in the drizzly rain last night, did 3 miles. I said to my neice please walk with me bc I did this challange and if I don't walk with you I have to walk the treadmill. So she walked with me.

then i went to collect my boys from school and saw man accidently run over his own sons foot with his car and he was caught under the tyre screaming and i ran over to help and dozey buggar was about to reverse back arggggggggh i managed to free him but i reckon it was broken ...i spent rest of day feeling so dizzy and sick .

im here ladies... just very down in the dumps

Legal News: My trial date is not until March 17, 2008. So, this is going to be affecting me for almost another 6 months! :cry I just want it over and done with. It is ruining everything for me. I just get sick thinking about it.

Band News: I went and got .4CC more added to my band yesterday.

total of 3.4 CC are in there now in my 4CC band.

I am on liquids.< /p>

Bad news... the doctors office says I gained 3 lbs from my last visit a month ago. :cry

It was the first time I'd ever saw a gain at the Dr. I felt horrible about it. I don't know how it is possible with the way I eat and the exercise I do, but apparently... it is possible.

My body is completely out of wack. I am not sleeping. I didn't even get a period this month! and (let me stress) no there is NO way that I am pregnant. So, my body is just completely messed up for some reason.

I am tired all the time. I just don't know what to do. I haven't even exercised once this week. :) I just feel like crap.

Claud - I am praying for you and your family honey! I keep watching the news and im thinking about starting some kind of a benefit out here to raise money to send to Cali for AID. I can't believe how many families have been affected.

Bman - I'm so glad you posted! I'm sorry you're feeling down. Maybe you need rechecked for the mono? I can't believe you aren't losing with the way you are eating. I hope this fill helps. As far as the trial goes, we are going to keep praying for you and I'm going to pray the judge throws the case out immediately, the whole thing is so ridiculous!

Brandi--oh honey sorry you have to wait so damn long, that just sucks! You need to get your self taken care of, stres will kill weight loss. You need to join a kickboxing class or something! :) You could loose some stress and loose weight!

Nikki--silly silly girl! lol..

I went to Dr today and I am so not a happy camper. They will not fill me until I get a Barium Swallow test. I just wanted to be back where I was because I can tell that I lost weight, but NO! UGH!!! I haven't gained or lost anything. They told me because I have lost 75% of my body weight that might just be it for me. I just can not accept that at all! SCREW that! I will loose those lasst 15 pounds if it kills me. I hate my Dr... ugh... Why would they tell me when I am so close that is it for me??

Pr*cks....ugh..... I refuse to take that for an answer.

Just checking in.

My scale was on 219.5 this morning. I AM IN THE TWO MOTHER FUCKING TEENS!!!! Oh. My. God! I haven't been this thin in like... 16 years. I stood there and stared at the scale in my buck naked glory. Man, I am so stoked! I'm even EATING today! I just finished seasoned tuna and crackers. Planning to work out my elliptical tonight for an hour. I swear 200 by T'gvg is in the cards if I just manage to focus. *laugh*

VA - hope you hear good news from the job front soon!

Darnit - gotta finish later, later for a meeting.

Nat

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        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

    • buildabetteranna
