W - Congratulations!!!! That's amazing! I noticed from your website that you were born in London. I had the pleasure of living in London for the better part of a year in the late 90s. My time there was wonderful, and I miss it dearly...

Well, I got my wish and was able to get out and ride tday!

It was 62, winds were 25 miles and hour steady...and gusting to 35....needless to say it was a hell of a work out. Average speed was not near as good as usual, but it felt good to be back on it. I had long underwear on under bike shorts, long underwear shirt under a hoodie, a hat and than my hat on the hoodie.

WE went to the bottom of the spill way wear there is a track, and we (my daughter and I ) alternated walking and jogging...first time ever I have jogged since grade school and high school.

It was a half mile track, so we did the jog/walk 1 time, and rode one time.

It was great to be back out....and I seriously cant wait until I get my new bike....wooohooooo

Anyway, just wanted to share...

One thing.....being off the bike since late October......it sucks starting all over....:)

Hi kids.

The dinner party went really well. We cooked and drank wine and had a very good time.

W- Great Job!

HP- Happy birthday to you!:happybday2: I love the family challenges. Keep us posted. And IMHO you shouldn't give John any slack. He should shoot for -20 too!

BG- We all know you're the sex toy, BJ queen on southwest Michigan. I for one am not surprised.

ZZ-I too think majic bullet = sex toy, everytime I use mine (the blender) I giggle. You did well with Grandma's food. That sounds pretty reasonable.

TX-Howdy, girl!

B- Sorry to hear about your pup. I feel you on the paper. Sometimes half assed is better than no ass at all. It's better than dumb ass or even smart ass in the situation.

D-I know you're out living life. XO

Oh, and I ran RAN for a solid 40 minutes today in the 53 degree, moist weather... I'll be ready for my 5K in February. I'm stoked. And I've lost two more pounds. (If I see the number twice on the scale I call it real.) So woo hoo.

And...jeez, it's a freaking book already, I'm off to Whole Foods here shortly. Happy Day.

HP glad you got out there to ride. It was 43 and rainy here but warm and clear enough for me to get out for a 4 miles walk this afternoon. It felt SO GOOD to not be couped up inside a gym.

        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
