I hate it when people post just to post.....

All this talk of butter cake and ooey-gooey cakes and Paula Dean is making me a bit nauseous. I think I've turned into one of *those* people... the ones who only eat healthy food and turn their noses up at the unwashed masses who go to McDonalds and eat Hostess cupcakes. :crying:

Seriously...seriously? :rolleyes2:

where's OHJuli? I haven't seen a posting from her in ages.

If I am correct she had ps the other day. Let me think....Tina had hers yesterday and I thunk OH Julie had ps Monday? I will have to look on the ps thread to check.

hello everyone...

Yeah, I know. :crying: Thanks. I decided to not get on the treadmill today. It's not going anywhere either! I'm also NOT going to do all the laundry today either. Just enough to get us thru a little longer. It's downstairs in the garage so I don't need to be hauling all of that up and down right now.

I guess I'm just getting a little anxious. I'm such a slow loser and had really gotten into the walking (at least of the neighborhood, I actually hate the treadmill but it works) and was hoping things were really starting to move. I've been stuck in the 180's for so long too. I'm just kind of a wreck right now I guess and just want to get GOING again!

All the drama is probably just NOW catching up to me too! I've noticed, since my daughter, I'm always stuffing a lot of my emotions, especially when something is wrong with me. We're pretty close and she can read me really well. We don't have family close by and she had to go with us to the surgeon Monday night. DH and I were both anxious but trying not to show it.

Thanks, Beth.

Nothing to thank me for. You did the right thing. I know it's hard, especially when you feel like you can work out but are told you can't -- and when the scale hasn't moved. However, you know that if you harm yourself by getting back to it too soon, you could lay yourself up much longer, and that isn't a good thing. :crying:

I have to remind myself all the time how this is a journey, not a race. If you do the right things, the right things will happen. Don't lose sight of that and where you came from. :rolleyes2:

I think once you commit to eating a certain way for a long enough time your tastes change.

I think so too.

shrimp

Yum, shrimp!

The thanks is for your concern. I appreciate it. A lot.

And I do know better. I just have to remind myself. I still have that dieter's mentality esp when it comes to the scale. I hate when it acts like a bad check! Bounce, bounce, bounce! :rolleyes2:

g4e, thanks for the update on OhJuli! Any word on Tina yet? I've been following her other thread but haven't seen anything yet. Way too soon, I'm sure!

Shrimp is so yummy!

Okay, I need to get to bed. DD will have me up waaayyyyy before I wanna be at this rate! LOL!

'Night all!

OhJuli is doing well. I talk to her pretty much daily. She's trying to ween herself off the meds and is probably looking mighty thin. I will hopefully see her Friday. And probably be insanley jealous.

Oh and it is not her fault that she was born on tax day. =)

You can try. I find that I can't ignore LBT for very long.

      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.
