Rave.. that made me laugh



Recommended Posts

I went to go buy a new foam roller and asked the salesperson what the difference and need is between the longer and shorter one and which should I get. She said, and I quote "well you are pretty petite in size so the shorter should be just fine". I am 5'5 so she couldn't be talking about my height! I was so stoked I actually laughed out loud. Me!!! Petite!!! Finally.

What is a "foam roller?"

look in Amazon. You roll on them to loosen your muscles. The harder plastic ones you use like a rolling pin. Great before a run

I got this one and it is helping. I was all set to go for a run to see if rollering before the run would help and we are having storms for the next few days. post-286600-14765811025361_thumb.jpg

And just like that someone can say something to burst the bubble. The new receptionist at the naturalist I go to for B12 and Vitamin shots each week asked me what I typically get. I told her a higher dose b12 because of weight loss surgery. She said "good for you. Taking that first step! When is your surgery ?" I was like ummm 7 months ago? And she said oh. Ok. Please have a seat. Hahahahaha. I don't know what she was expecting. I am 5'5 and weigh now 153 pounds.

      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. 🤞
