Happy Fat Tuesday y'all.

Decisions, decisions. Do I eat the Paczki or the Coldstone Peanut Butter chocolate Ice cream cake I got for Dan's birthday???? I just can't decide.

Polish heritage or Coldstone deliciousness? Both? 10 pound weight gain this week?

Maybe I will just have a salad.< /p>

Factacular keeps asking the same question over and over again, regardless of how I answer it.

That's annoying.

Have you tried refreshing the pages after you answer? You should not have to do that but I am at a loss for anything else you can do.

I figure there's a glitch in the system. I saw other people in a forum saying the same thing. I'll give it a little time. I'll so be back.

Hi everyone, I am still sitting around the house healing well. I have never taken this much time off from work, it has been a blessing in disguise. I have been totally focussed on my school work. I did not realize that one of the classes I signed up for was accelerated. Oh well it will be over soon enough.

I have not been motivated or enthusiastic about getting on here and sharing lately. It all started before I ended up in the hospital. I have been having trouble with this band for a couple months and struggling with it in the worst way. My focuss has been on trying to figure out what was going wrong. I guess we all know the answer now.

My weight loss ticker is still accurate, although I don't know how. I am really down about the struggles. I wanted so badly to be under 220 by now. My biggest fear has now moved from will I lose the band to how much will I gain before being refilled. My Dr. said he wasn't sure how long it would be before we start refilling. He said he is thinking 6 months or a even year!!!!!!

I have to say how impressed I am with all of you.

ZZ, your b4 after pics are awesome.

D, HP, judging from your avatars. WOW just WOW!

J, BG, you two are still kicking ass.

B, thanks for the well wishes and for making me feel a little better about my OCD. I think you have a decided edge on me in that arena.

TX, congrats on the smoking. That is a tough feat.

Turler or T, welcome to the insanity. My two cents on the Bike issue. I went to the recumbent for the fact that I could not only ride it longer, but I also recovered from those long rides much faster. This allowed me not only to ride again faster but I was also able to walk sooner without horrible pain. That is just my personal point of view many find hybrids or other types of bikes fit the bill. It is very difficult but you have to search for what is going to work for you.

Take care, JC

      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.
