It's the Rants and Raves forum. It's a bitch fest most days. I only hit it every once in a while.

We got geared up to ride today, even met the folks but it started misting on the way there. Alison and I decided not to go, but the three others decided to ride. It started to really rain when we were about a mile away. I don't know what they ultimately did...

I can ride cold, but not cold and wet. NO way!

Glad you had a good weekend with your friends.

Okay, so I know this is OT from all the outstanding conversations we've been posting here today, but...

When was the last time you were walking up to a store and saw yourself coming in the reflection?

Holy Sh*t!!! Happened today. Not happy. I kept trying to look away, but it was like those va jay jay photos, I just had to look! I am so happy I'm being banded soon. I start my liquid diet on Thursday. Get my Band the Thursday after that! YAY for me!

Remember that feeling looking at your reflection...before you know it, you'll see yourself again, and go damn, that's me!

And please take some pictures of yourself before Thursday. Get in a swim suit or shorts and a tank top. Have your husband take them. You'll hate it, but you'll be happy to have them later. Promise!!!

Yeah, I know. I asked my daughter to do it! DH isn't allowed! LOL I am also going to take my measurements. I'm sure at some point it will come in handy when I need a NSV.

I have some pics in my bedroom of my honeymoon (only 6 years ago) and I actually looked at them. They are my before the Before pictures ya know? What's worse is, I thought I was fat then! So sad. Shame on me. Good example of learning to love yourself and live for today.

I always wanted a motorcycle. I even learned to drive one, but I'm too much a chicken.

Very cool. I think this thread needed a boost of testosterone, with the vagina dialogs happening.

So I was supposed to go downtown for the Tigers opening day today but the weather sucks and no one wants to go with me. What a waste of a day off work.

I just emailed you, asking if you were there, I had to double check my email for dirty words...

Sorry your people are sucking and not going with you. Who are the tigers? What do they do?

      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. 🤞
