I wish!!! @Tyson4834 No, my marriage is over so me and the kids have left what was the family home. Been a bit of a nightmare but we're officially in. I really would love to move over to the States! I'm hoping it'll happen a few years down the line... would need to find a job etc first. Not sure if the president would want me there to be fair although I don't think the UK counts as a "shithole country" hehe! x

Sorry to hear about your marriage @MsTipps. I hope it works out for the best for you and the kids. I’m a firm believer in if you want something bad enough you will do whatever it takes to reach it. I guess all of us are in that boat or we wouldn’t have gone to drastic measures to lose some weight. I truly hope you make it over here one day. Who knows, your “Mr. Right” might be over here.

Sorry all I’ve been on vacation. So I’m down 68 pounds and I’m excited. I would like to lose 7 pounds by the 17th so that I lose 75lbs in 6 months #needtotryhardergoals.
@MsTipps I’m sorry to hear about your marriage but you moving is a great thing for you and your kids. Your journey is more complicated than mine but you’re rising to all the challenges. Stay strong my friend.

Happy Independence Day to y’all fellow Americans!! I’m weighing in today at 245. That is an amazing 95 pounds down since surgery day! July 10 will be my 6 month mark. I’m hoping I can lose 5 pounds by then but that’s a lot to lose in a short time period. Wish me luck!

@Marc76 that’s awesome that your doctors office does that. I kinda wish I got on that trend a little better.

Thank you @soccerkaty but the only reason these pictures are taken is because a nurse from the weight management program I attend forces me lol. I am happy now that she's taken the photos so I'm able to see the progress :)

Yesterday was my 6 month surgiversary. I didn’t hit the 100lb mark but I got pretty darn close! I’m down a total of 97 pounds as of today! To say I’m excited with this is an extreme understatement!

I’m one week and 3 pounds from my six month goal... I hope I make it, it’s crazy I’ve never cared about my weight before and now I care and I want to hit goals. I’ll take some pictures next week! PS all of you look super good, I hope you all feel better too.

      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.
