I'm ok but its flooded. I called my husband crying and I couldn't hardly get it all out to the troopers I was so upset. I have alot of thanking God to do tonight. Idk the last time I've been so scared. I barely could open my door the Water was pouring in on me. Now I'm scared to death and not knowing what I'm gonna do til they check my car out.

So glad you are safe. I know it was scary. Please take care of yourself!

Tomorrow hoping I hear something about my car. Thankfully I'm off til Thurs but is annoying not hearing anything plus just makes me anxious as heck about my car. Today was over all a good day. Hubby having foot surgery again on Fri. It's like restarting all this crap all over again. Still don't know alot about the future and where we may be living after the next few months. I am however taking this time to enjoy being home with my boy and doggies.

This is something I've not seen anyone talk about...

Is anyone having dizziness issues?

A couple of times I've been so dizzy that I think I'm going to pass out or I stumble badly across the room.

Sounds like you might be dehydrated.

Had some strange pains near my left incision area. It has been a rough few weeks. Was all excited because I hit 103lbs gone forever!!!! Then, had an ovarian cyst wreak havoc on my and sent me to the ER. Today I couldn't distinguish if the pain was the pulled muscle from surgery or the cyst again. Laid in bed sleeping due to pain meds all day. I am happy I have lost so much now, but still having pain. Sounds like others are having some issues too. Hope everyone starts feeling better soon. Sure proud of this group and so happy to be a part of it.

Just enjoy your days off and focus on the positive my friend. You are alive and well! Glad you have a few days to spend with the people (and doggies) you love. The rest will work itself out. Hugs to you!

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
