From Rags to Riches-Tony Bennett. :)

I love Tony Bennett so.....
In San Francisco (home of the World's Most Beautiful Ballpark), when the Giants win a home game, they play "I left My Heart in San Francisco".

Yes, ma'am . I'm originally from the Bay Area. I still miss it, so that song makes me cry when I hear it.

It's a Sin, by Eddie Howard....never heard of it, and never heard of him.

In response to vile and disrespectful language......I couldn't believe that the one that was rolling around here last week went so far. The OP was cursing out every response in a disgusting way and no intention of benefiting from our input. Those ones need to be shut down sooner and forbidden to post anything in this forum.

I have been on here for over two years, and I feel like I know many of you as well as any of my neighbors, and I like most of you more than I like some people in my own family. It's hard to not chime in on garbage like that, because it does fan the flame.

We all need to get better at ignoring folks like that. We are decent people who can respectfully disagree. Like I frequently tell newbies......Opinions and tact may vary, but we mean well. I love my forum family. Happy Valentine's Day to all of you.

Just a note:

If you add your comment about the OP's subject without checking what the #1 song was the day you were born and posting it, I will be sad.

That is all.

A Hard Day's Night by the Beatles.

That explains a lot.

Ditto to "A Hard Day's Night". We must share the same birthday week.

Happy Birthday ~6 months in advance.

I was born on Sunday, July 26, 1964 (as was Sandra Bullock). That was the start of the first week the song was number one. It went for two weeks at that spot.

Mick Jagger was also born on July 26, but 21 years before me and my galpal Sandy.

Fun fact:

Respect by Aretha Franklin was the #1 song on the day I was born.

Yes, I'm old.

Mine is Chapel of Love by The Dixie Cups

Edited because Love is not Live autocorrect!

As for @@Babbs being old when RESPECT came out...nope...I beat you by three years????

a "tough-love" way is a better approach.

Have you ever noticed that, when you do give a tough-love type of response, people "like" it, but the addressee is never amongst them? Most often people want to hear what they want to hear.

Respect by Aretha Franklin was the #1 song on the day I was born.

Yes, I'm old.

Spring chicken is more like it, Missy. My thought upon reading your day-of-birth song title was, "Geez, I pre-date Peggy Lee's 'Fever.'" The funny thing is that, when I clicked into the BirthdayJams link, I found that another Peggy Lee song was #1 on my day. Ever hear "Manana (is good enough for me)?" It must have been around for quite some time, as I do know it.

You Can't Hurry Love by the Supremes.

I know I definitely fall in the "tough love" category when it comes to posting, but I treat my friends and family exactly the same way face to face. The only time I waste my time trying to be PC is with clients (well, most of the time).

As for the belligerent negative nellies, vulgar posters, and defensive responders, they actually make me feel good about myself. Warped, I know. But as much as I may think I'm a miserable bitch, at least I'm not as miserable as them and I have the communication skills to express myself without using profanity. Although, I gotta admit some days there haven't been enough curse words invented to express how I REALLY feel ;)

        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
