Oh and while in WA state, visit the San Juan islands! Bellingham, Anacortes etc....beautiful scenery, some great little places to stop along the way, wineries etc.....you need to do a travel blog!

If you have a little time, I can second the suggestion to take the ferry to the San Juan islands.

In the city, the Pike Place Market down by the waterfront is a great place to visit, and they have myriad food choices, including tons of fresh and healthy seafood.

I am sure I have seen on reality tv a restaurant where you have to eat your weight in something or other. If such a place existed I would imagine you could find someplace like that in Nevada.

Just the thought of that turns my stomach, eek.

I finally found public scales!!!! Okay, got a little excited there.

My friend recommended using the blood pressure machine at the pharmacy in Walmart, and as I was trying to kill time before the drive to Vegas this afternoon I was doing every test they had and I realised you could do weight and BMI! You just sit on the seat and put your feet up on the bar and it does what the stand up scales at home do! And it's free!

I asked the lady behind the pharmacy desk and she said every Walmart should have one - so now I just need to find Walmart on my travels. Which isn't exactly hard - hooray!

This is great to know.

And, yes, unfortunately, you can find Walmart just about everywhere.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
