Work starts tomorrow. I'm a little nervous about how to work everything in but I feel confident it will all work out. My lunch/snacks are packed and my supplements are all set up in my pull case. Now someone pray for me please ;)

Biggest thing I have learned since I've been back at work? Do not....ever....think I can have any Snacks at my desk. New rule for me is pack for the day with no contingency nibbles regardless of their health value. Even a small bag of plain chex for dipping hummas must be packed daily versus a sandwich bag that is supposed to last all week. Just getting that confessional out..

Thank you for that great tip. I am one who would pack for the week and gobble it right up on day one! I found a great bento like lunch box last weekend and it helps keep portions small and keep me mindful.

Where did u get the bento-type lunch box? I ordered the actual bento one off Amazon but would like a second one so I don't have to wash that one EVERY night to use the next day. LOL.

I cleaned out my closet today. I got rid of over a third of it. I'm starting a new job on Monday and I have NOTHING to wear except for a few pants that I had. No shirts tho. I'm going to need to go shopping. I just don't know where to go nor do I want to spend a alot of money to just grow out of it. I'm not a huge fan of old navy and the Macy's and target we have are small. Marshall's and tjmaxx are awful here. I swear we get the stuff nobody wants from the bigger stores. Ugh. What to do?

My whine of the day... Lol

      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.
