Congratulations!!! I'm very proud of you! I don't k ow your budget but you could always Celebrate with a new shirt or pair of pants, if that's too much you could always just celebrate with your family without food or cake!!! Maybe take out a before and now pic to see how far you have come!!!

Is there a goal you have not completed yet?

I went and worked out on my 1 year.

Congrats on the weight loss and the 1 year milestone!

I like the idea of massage - I was always too embarrassed about my weight to ever get a massage. Maybe buy a piece of inspirational jewelry or a charm, get a tattoo, or experiment with a new hairstyle. Try a new activity you've never done or been able to do like spinning, yoga, or kayaking. Go to a play or a concert you've always wanted to see. Take a day or weekend trip to hike and explore your area's natural resources. I'd love to do a zip-line tour. :-)

My anniversary is in May. I'm thinking of a tattoo. I'm the only one in my family who doesn't have one. I designed my husband's tattoo based on his viking heritage. I recently found my half brothers I had never met and discovered that I also have some viking blood. I may design one for myself...

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
