I had to cancel my half sleeve tattoo scheduled for Feb because I've had to go on aspirin for Migraines recently. Someone get a tattoo and allow me to live vicariously through you!!

Thanks, I have three right now. My first was just for fun, a hummingbird in a flower. My second was for sentimental reasons, I lost a coworker to breast cancer. So, in October of 2011, for breast cancer awareness month, myself and three other coworkers got the breast cancer awareness symbol tattooed on our breasts in her memory. The business that was doing the tattoos donated the money to breast cancer. And, of course, this one is honor of my weight loss. Now, I have the itch again. Maybe a Christmas gift for myself!

OK, ready for this?? I hate motorcycles...always have. I think they're dangerous and was thrilled when my boys eventually sold their bikes off. I know that folks who ride love the feeling..it's just that I personally don't like 'em.

Having said that however, my physical therapist rides a bike and even after he took a spill and broke his wrist recently, he still rides and tells me how much he loves it. Well...at PT last week, I was able to get on one of the weight machines backwards in order to work on strengthening exercises on my back. This is the first time since the hip surgery that I could get my leg up and around the seat fairly easily. Sanjay was silently watching me and then quietly said, 'That was spectacular. If it's the last thing I do, I'm gonna get you on my bike and we're going for a ride.'

I still doubt I'll do it. Imagine me on a motorcycle in Manhattan...aagghh! You take your life in your hands just crossing the street, much less sharing the road with cars, taxi's, trucks, and NYC buses. But...just to know that I can get on a bike is miraculous to me.

        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.

      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
