Have I mentioned yet today that I heart my Bodybugg? I have named him Herbie. Short for Herbert Walker Runner Trainer Totally Rocks My World Bugg.

And to think I"ve just been calling mine "Bugg"... how unoriginal of me! But I did name my lapband "Stella" as in 'How Stella got her groove back.'

Happy Monday all!

I'm having a shit ass day.

I walked in to a big ass baby crying because he agreed to work overtime and resents his coworker. She's in the hospital...

Other dumb fucks have committed me to stuff I have little time to do.

And the produce company didn't see my order for pumpkins and cider. "Do you really need it?" No, we're just a school having a freaking Halloween part for 150 kids. Yes, I need it.

Ugh.

Woohhooooo BG, three more pounds!!!! Great job!! Do you think it was the BB????

I thought I was banned from the site, that is why I couldn't get on...LOL...glad I wasn't:bounce: I thought maybe my mouth was a bit too french....

I am also scared of gaining....I also have a hard time with buying clothes....I can't see myself putting something on that is not tent size....

I did ride my bike for an hour yesterday and then walked another hour. It was not the road bike, but the sporty, but still it was great!!! A little chilly, but fun.

Holy crap I freaking did it. I am sitting in my offivce typing this and staring at my bike. I made it the 11.2 miles to work!!! It took me about an hour and 40 minutes but that included a 10 minute Water break. So 1.5 hours for 12 miles not too shabby. Especially since the longest I have ever riden in one stretch is 6 miles.

I think I am going to have DH pick me up though.

HAHAHAHA...had to put this on BG, since you found some of me a while ago. This is from one of the first pages!!!! :clap2:

I think I could have made it home but I was in a hurry because I had a lot of things to do so I had DH pick me up. Honestly I feel great. I am not tired or anything. I even managed to do some running this afternoon (20 minutes straight for the first time ever). I am thinking that for every day I ride my bike to work I am going to put away the same amount of gas money the trip would have cost me and at the end of the summer buy myself something nice. Like maybe a bodybugg. Man I really want one of those things.

And then there were more........

Thanks Juli, the club thing is very cool gives you a larger support group!

Cherrybomb I started riding "again" 4 weeks post-op.

Deanna, you and Juli are starting to make me feel like a lazy slug!

I'm going to have to step it up!

JC

ANYTIME JC says you make him feel like a lazy slug, then that means he hasn't done more than 300 miles that day!!! You are such a rock star JC, you know I love ya!!!

Where are you anyways???

WOOT WOOT

I just did my first group ride on the roads of central Ohio.

We did 23 miles, up hills and down hills (I went 35mph down a big one!)

I kept up with my group and they were so encouraging! Oh my goodness, I'm hooked. Absolutely and without question. I so want to go again and again!

I learned so much too! The rules of the road, how to peddal efficiently, etc.

That's right, I rode that bike!!!

and then there was J, back in the old days of riding......

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
