Summer is sure going fast. Not sure where the time has gone. Speaking of time it will be one year next month since being banded and so many good things have happen with the weight loss. We are able to do a lot more things. We are going to Santa Claus, Ind Labor Day Weekend to the Water and Ride park. This hould be a lot of fun. We went to Kings Island last summer before being banded so the seats should be a lot better. Been trying to ride more but have been busy with getting things done at the New Iny Airport and get it open on the 11th Nov. and also been helping with behind the scene stuff for the New Lucas Oil Stadium which open up next week. Cannot wait for the College Fooball Season to start. Go Buckeyes!! Looks like I will do another sleep study in Sept. to see if I can be off the machine and just the dental device instead. I have notice a big change in the last year. Hope to be down 70' lbs by the 19 of Sept. which will be one year. Glad to see everyone is doing real well.

Chris

stay away from meatballs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I created a extra lean turkey meatball earlier this week...no bread product...and they were pretty tender and with a lot of chewing they went down okay.... it only took me about 3 small ones before I was full.

What part of Florida are you coming too?? We live 20 minutes north of Tampa. (I noticed on your ticker you have 1 more week til you visit)

Sometimes it seems like my scale doesn't move at all...I keep reminding myself that this is a nice slow healthy process, that will never let it come back.

You will have a blast in Orlando...so much to do up there! What do you do for work? 6 weeks is a long time to be away from home. We are going to Jamaica in October for a week! We will be there for my birthday!!

Are you able to bring your bike when you come for the October trip?

i am a Goverment contractor, and I do circuit card repair and rework..soldering, etc.

I was in Orlando last year as well, but in October. it was wonderful down there. I have not figured out the situation on my bike yet. I was going to rent a car here and drive down and take it, but....not sure....it is such a long time, that I felt it would be awesome to do....we will see.

Any good places you can recommend??????

Hi Little sister,

You should start with me now! I am still just cruising the neighborhood, that way when we build up to it, we can take the long rides together and be on the same level! I am proud of you for taking this big step in your life!!:)

      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
