Just the sight of liver at the grocery store makes me a little sick.

When I was at the grocery store as a kid, I used to push on the plastic wrap covering the liver. It just felt so weird. That and the cow's tongue. I don't see that in grocery stores anymore.

They have GMO cows now that are bred to not have livers or tongues... or perhaps Mcdonalds bought them all up.

Maybe the disappeared to the "veterans" site that we're all not worthy enough to see.

You can look, but just don't touch or we will send out the veteran with the ruler to smack naughty boys and girls hands!

Mine has pigs feet. Not sure I've ever seen the tongue before tho.

Sometimes I can't keep up.

But I DO like chopped liver (and Lipstick)

And I DO miss Laura's wisdom.

Wow...You'd think they passed away or something....they are busy for now..Hold on folks and I am sure they will all be back and telling us all their wisdom in no time......They all feel a responsibility to this forum I am sure......

Relax, breath deeply and the time will fly by..Meanwhile do your part to help encourage those on here that need you too....

Helping others can cause burnout, and sometimes, when lots of other stuff is going on elsewhere, a wise helper takes a break. I work in a field where the staff really does a good job of staying on track in the face of confront, and avoiding burnout can be as little as taking a day for your self, letting someone else do the job for a while, or changing direction all together if needed. Not even saying that these peeps are burnt out... just a thought...life outside the "Pal" goes on....

I have missed Laura-Ven's no nonsense responses. I missed the "offending" post, I guess! Boo!

I'm guilty as a meat poker too. Ugh. Now I can't even touch raw meat. I blame the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies.

I always likes their wit and insight so I'm missing LV and GG. This sucks.

Still missing everyone. Hope they all return again one day & I pray all are well & having awesome success as they continue along their journeys! The site is not the same anymore & actually is quite boring. They really kept it alive on here! Best wishes to all sleevers!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
