My daughter and her husband lived for a short time in Roanoke Rapids a few years ago, I think it's in Halifax County.

Wowed small world isn't it. They say we all,have 6% of separation My late husband was a distant cousin of President Millard Fillmore and I me supposedly a distant cousin of Princess Diana thru her great great grandfather Frank Week who was from Muskingum County Ohio. Did you ever hear the joke about people who boast about relatives/anscestors? They're like potatoes, the best part of them. Is underground. Hey I enjoy your postings and your weight loss journey is an inspiration to all us newbies. Have a good evening my friend.

She's on the General Weight loss Forum, just go in there and say Hi, tell her a little of your story, she seems to be leaning toward a sleeve at this time. I of course told her a little of my story, told her I imagined the other North Carolinians would be telling her Hi. I know when the other Buckeyes noticed my location I got some welcomes. Be the cool veteran I know you are, she probably will appreciate it. I know I value your example, hey I hadn't told you but thank you for your law enforcement service. My uncle was a Deputy Sheriff in my county for a period of time.

      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.
