That lady is Marty 7... I don't know her but she posted that in 2010. As far as your warning post.... Go figure! I have none, and say s*it all the time.

I'm not exercising at all unless you count the occasional donning of body armor and the 10 trips a day I make to the latrine, which is far away and probably adds up to a mile. I want to lift weights and do compound exercises but don't know what is stopping me.

Ohhh I wanna join!! Your first two pics...gorgeous!! I'm way down south, no mountains...I've started exercising and it makes me feel sooo much better. I don't do a lot (compared to some folks on here) but ANY is better than what I've done in the past...which was zilch! Idk that I'm up for pics yet though, but I do enjoy looking at y'all's. :):)

 Hi Redbean, I just saw you on MFP (Im sukielovesveggies there).

This is a private goupe  for vets who are using the 5:2 method, The switch going on here has so far thrown it into the general publlic, but I imagine that will change as soon as Alex gets to it. You are always welcome to look, just not post... we do admit some requests for new members, but most are well over a year out and use the 5:2 method... we are mostly here for support of that. Do friend me on MFP! And, thanks for liking my photos, getting moving has really been such a great part of this lifestyle change!

      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
