I surf through some of the other threads to learn and I have the TX thread I go to. I also go to the one that has a TV program that I like.

My thing ,I'm just too much on here period. I make sure that I read here everyday. Everyone here (Christian site) is so motivational and "bible based".

NeverB4, I love Beth Moore. She came to Dallas about 2 yrs ago to my sister's church to speak at a Womens conference and she was a blessing to me. She is good friends with Tony Evans' (Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, my sisters church) daughter.

Morgan, God does give us the desires of our heart. Keep the faith. I prayed and asked for God's will to be done when I decided to have to surgery. I never felt guilty in wanting to have the surgery, not once, cause I knew that I couldn't do it alone and that he had created these things as a tool for us that wasn't as strong as some that did do it without surgery. Sometimes I get depressed about the weight loss, but that's because I'm looking at others success and not concentrating on my success wheather it be slow or fast, I will and can do all things through Christ that strenghtens me.

Be blessed everyone and may your day be full of praise and worship to the one that has made all of this possible.

Hey fellow Christians, my daughter and I attended a Beth Moore seminar this past weekend. All I can say is WOW. She was great. Well I am waiting for my surgery on Friday. I'm scheduled to be done around 1 pm. Can't wait. Thank you all for your prayers.

Friday will be over before you know it! The worst is the gas pains. Besides that, just take it easy for a couple of days.

I was looking at TBN this afternoon (shhhh, I am at wk, "lunch") and the speaker gave a verse that just absolutely blessed me. Proverbs 13:12.

For all of you that's waiting, don't be discouraged, God is still blessing.

:tongue: This is for you, Livin4Jesus:thumbup:

Keep in touch. If you have a hard time sleeping, pull out your heating pad. Gas:eek:, walk and take gas strips,& sip, sip and sip your H2O.

We are rooting for you here.:redface:

I marked the date, we will be having TAKS for the students that wk, so someone PLEEZ remind a old lady like me the day before.^_^

I will probably be in a classroom monitoring, but the student will be quiet and testing, so I can still say a prayer.

Well, I've been through all the other threads and I've ended up here!! Yes the Lord is sending me messages - I lack so much faith but this thread is a true blessing!! Im 28 and my surgery date set for 7 May 2008. Im not feeling nervous, just very excited and the whole process has gone pretty smooth from deciding to have the op (did i pray about it - NO!) to getting the finances - and still i question my faith!! What is wrong with me!! Why do I so often forget to include God in my day to day decisions? Thank you Lord for steering me once again in the right direction!! Nice to meet you all!!

        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!

      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
