Are you looking for exercises or fun things to do? Or both?

Both. Mainly anything that keeps me up and moving and burning calories.

Yes, I do dumbbells, LOVE to put on great music and dance!!

Online videos are not an option. Only internet we have is expensive, has a data cap that is VERY difficult to stay under, unused data doesn't roll over, but they charge an arm & a leg if we go over.

It's just that I have A LOT of energy, can't work due to disability, have to do things for short periods or it increases my pain level. I do help a friend in her deli about 10 hours a week. I only sleep about 6 hours a day, so have A LOT of time to try and fill.

Candidate, I love Lacy Mucklow's books which you can get on Amazon. I also like the Zentangle books - also can be found on Amazon. I also like to do Mandalas. While you can get coloring books with mandalas, you can also find tons of these and other adult coloring pages to print off the computer! I also like to play with different kinds of coloring instruments. If you have a Christian background, you should check out the Illustrated Faith Website! So cool!

I love to colour!

I also like to paint rocks, which I haven't done in a while.

Let our creative juices flow........................

I am allergic to housework, but you could always do a task like sweep the porch, fold some clothes, wipe down the shower, etc.

Absolutely! I'm very OCD about cleaning, but it's just me to clean up after, so that runs out..............

Can you bottle some of that energy for me? I could sure use it for my house. ;)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      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
