I am in horrible pain...but I had a really hot bath today and it eased it up a little..With having pneumonia the time it is the worst is when I cough...I cough a lot! .And then I can hit the roof..Man I wonder if this will ever end?..I really do!!!

I go on Tuesday to get another X ray to see if my chest is clearer....I was on so much antibiotics when I was in the hospital and for 5 months afterward..He is not really keen on giving much more unless it calls for it...

They run havoc on your body and I am working so hard to build it up you know......Tomorrow is another day right.....

indomitable spirit!

It would be used to describe someone who has a very strong character and will not give up. They cannot be subdued or overcome and will keep on trying.

Yikes you are way to kind to me gmanbat, truly....Thank you though!

RJ, I am so sorry to read this latest setback for you. I have had costochondritis (inflammation of the rib cage cartilage) and it is quite painful. You don't realize how often you use your ribs until you have pain in them. Things you do every day without thinking such as breathing can cause pain. Driving when I would have a flare was almost impossible.

I am keeping you in my thoughts and hoping things get better for you and your bad times will soon be a distant memory.

Sending you lots of love and healing light via the cyber cloud! I hope you pain is decreasing and your healing increasing. You have persevered thru so much already. This new issue really sucks! How you keep your composure I don't know. I think I'd be raging at God!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        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
