I've got collar bones!! And I moved my bra hooks in a row and I can cross my legs again comfortably. I'm so happy to be getting my legs back. I always had great legs from dancing for 15+ years.

I love my collar bones! I keep touching them to find out if they are always there! Lol. When I run at the gym there is a mirror across the gym and I keep looking at my collar bones and thinking I am seeing things! I love them.

My sister in law gave me a size large summer dress and I told her it wouldn't fit and after a good debate, she had me try it on and it fit perfectly.

Right after surgery I thought I only had 4 incisions because looking in the mirror I couldn't see the 5th incision because it was near my belly button that was covered by my dropping stomach. Today I looked in the mirror today and to my surprise I saw the incision without moving my stomach around!!

-Today at the doctor, I fit into a regular gown, not the fat one. Also they used the regular blood pressure cuff.

-I can look down and see my girlie parts whereas before they were hidden by my gut.

-My collar bones too!

-When walking I notice that my upper thighs barely rub together anymore.

One of my coworkers said I needed smaller pants because I was swimming in mine.

I have been doing a 5k training program since about 4 weeks out, but I finally got in 4 one minute run intervals as part of my 3 miles tonight!!! 5k on Saturday night and another on August 10. If you have a Fleet Feet store in your town check out their No Boundaries program. It is a great way to incorporate exercise and meet some great motivators!

It's been sooo hot! I bought a bathing suit and went to the beach for a swim with my daughter tonight. Cooled me right off! I haven't done that in ten years! :-)

Don't really like the bathing suit but it fit. There's slim pickings in the stores right now on them. Back to school stuff is out already...

Ok this is a strange one. I have a speaker in my car that is blown and has been for awhile. It's in my center console. Up until now my butt muffled it so I couldn't hear it as much but now its the only thing I hear. So yea!! that I can hear it but boooo!! that I now have to buy a new speaker. Whatever tho, I'll spend $50 on a new speaker and be skinny. Lol.

        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
