Ahh. I feel like I am doing terrible. My job is crazy right now. I felt like I was in a dream world at the beginning of the school year. I had all this time, the kids were great and turning in work, no meetings, and now ...BAM all at once it seems like I am working 16 hours a day. In fact yesterday, I got to work at 5:15AM and went to bed at 8:30 pm and during that entire duration, I worked all but the half hour that I exercised, and even then I was reading essay questions. So needless to say, I am not working out as much as I want. Fortunately I am one of the lucky ones that is not hungry and am losing weight by being on my feet all day and not eating.

Oh Salsa, I remember those days of never having a moment to myself. You're doing great and the fact that you're finding any time to exercise is amazing. My youngest is away at college and I have more time for me than I've ever had. I'm the one with no excuse for not getting in my exercise.

Today was one month since starting at Curves. I was weighed and measured. I have lost 10 lbs and 12 inches in the last month. :whoo:

I am so upset because my gym cancelled all evening h2o aerobics classes because there wasn't enough attendance. However, there were few enough that everyone could move around the way you are supposed to. Oh well, just laps then!

      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.
