Yogurt. Not feeling it tonight. Bad news from my son. He's a marine training for his next deployment. He was rappelling out of a helicopter tonight and fell to the ground' date=' shattering his leg. He's in surgery to repair it - he needs a plate and screws. I wish I could be there but he's in California and I'm in New England. He's no baby, but he's MY baby. :-([/quote']

I can only imagine what that must feel like, Terry. I'm sure he will be fine.you take care of you and the docs well take care of your baby.

Preop weight 389 current weight 298...that's 91 lbs lost since RNY 6/11/13

Terry that's awful, pray he recovers well after surgery. Very difficult being away when our children are injured. Doesn't the forces have access for family during these times?

I'm so sorry to hear this...I'm sure he'll be fine, but I know how bad you must feel not being able to be with him.

Sending prayers for your son! He will always be your baby no matter how old or how tough :-). Thank him and his family for protecting us at all cost. Peace!

Still no news. I know it's only a broken leg - it'll heal. It could have been worse in so many terrible ways so he's lucky. I'm just missing him and wanting to be with him. He's 22 and not married, so he has no family to be there for him. He's got his platoon buddies and a few of them are really good friends. Maybe they'll let him come home to heal? He was supposed to start his second deployment after the holidays (he's security for Force Recon) but that's not going to happen now. I guess we'll find out more in the next couple of days.

Prayers for your son.

It never gets easier when you have a loved one serving in the military. Very unpredictable!

Hopefully, you get to hear from him very soon.

Yesterday and today were my 'I'm a moron' days. I gave into homemade chicken Schnitzel and sopapillas. Didn't have much of it and luckily for MFP, I didn't cross over my cal limit at all. Still, moron move to eat fried.

I'm over my Schnitzel craving now.

Cooked for the family- beef roast in crockpot all day, cooked down yellow squash with onions, grilled marinated mushrooms, and homemade mashed potatoes. Everybody ate tons and I ate a tiny plate with a little of everything. All sitting good.

Soon will be time for all the kiddies to go to bed finally. Been a long day!

      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.
