Recommended Posts

Green: Awesome. You name your coats. How about your frocks? Or do you seldome wear frocks? Like me.

Drewslou: Thanks! Appreciate your genorosity! Bet you wouldn't mind if we decided to truck some home with us. We could put a nice layer of Coors Lite on the bottom.

I hardly ever wear dresses or get dressed up. I would rather have elective surgery than get dressed up and this is why I rarely agree to go to weddings. I end up feeling like a cowboy in drag.:)

Green: The only time I dress up is when I have to go to a function w/ my DH. And even then I don't wear dresses. When I worked I preferred pants and jackets to skirts of any kind. Now if I could just figure out a way to get rid of a purse! Purses are fun though, skirts are an encumbrance.

Does Green wear cowboy boots? You could fit right in here in Texas. Except you'd have to leave Norton at home. He'd shed his fur here. The coat, not the cat. You can bring the cat. He'll shed his fur too, but no so's you'd notice.

I usually wear black pants or jeans in the winter. In the summer I always wear black or white capris. I wear flat soled shoes, usually a walking shoe or sandal, or ankle high boots. I am fond of colourful foot wear. The ankle boots are Tomato red and my other boots look like the kind that wrestlers wear. I have two black leather vests, one is quilted leather. In the summer I wear a lot of baggy linen stuff, usually white. This is because it gets very damn hot and humid up here.

But no, no cowboy boots although many years ago I used to have a pair in lavender leather! They were pretty cute.

Come on out to Colorado! We have plenty of snow to go around!

We never get snow (Dallas)!! IF we do it melts the next 1-2days- It is rarely below 50 here until Feb!! We have one-two months of cold (below 50) if we are lucky. Its always easier to enjoy if you dont HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT!

I miss the Marlboro man, come to think of it.

Yeah, he was quite a hunk, wasn't he? Died of lung cancer, appropriately enough, but still a shame.

I have pink (mauve, actally) Justin ropers. You gotta have jeans and cowboy boots here so you can go boot scootin'!

But I like to get all girlified once in a while. Not often, though - just once in a while.

Oh, I wear jeans all the time. I have black ones and blue ones. Green loves jeans but they have to be tapered in at the ankle. Flared ones make me look like a colonial lampshade from the rear end!:(

Not to change the subject or anything... lol... but we are supposed to get more snow on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. They are saying this will be a huge storm like our blizzard right before Xmas. High temps will be below zero for a few days it sounds like. I heard a prediction of 3 feet this morning! Ack! I am so moving to AZ for the winter I think. Snow birds have the right idea!

That's pretty distressing, I'm supposed to fly in on Sunday.:(

Maybe I'll ask Dr. K if he can just freeze me instead of using the general anesthetic.

Drewslou: Don't feel too bad, we're supposed to get some ice. Sometimes a heavy coating of ice can wreak more havoc than a 3 ft. snowfall. I feel sorry for you all who have gotten snowed in and are tired of it though. This has been a freaky winter. Temps are in the 60s here today. Lots of sunshine. I'm not complaining.

DrewsLou,

Maybe all you people in Colorado could wave that storm our way. I live in Montana and we haven't had squat for snow. It is 52F today and I am dyin'. I think Mother Nature is having a hot flash :)

        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.

      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
