Kat - Re the gossipers - way to go!

Re the banding stuf - that's terrible. Plan to spend a lot of time getting things straight, including checking your credit rating.

SNT - Working from home is great if you have a lot of self-discipline, and can avoid all distractions.

Plain - the charleston is a great dance; I taught a highschool football team to include it as part of their warmup. It stretches and uses all muscle groups, requires agility and balance, can be done en masse, and is just fun.

Frost overnight; winter is coming....

And thx for laughing...esp at Plain's expense! :cursing:

Wow, harsh! You haven't seen any of my earlier filmwork, have you? I was young and needed the money!

Plain - the charleston is a great dance

After reading SNT's comment, I guess I can 'fess up to also throwing in some "jazz hands" to any dance.

Kat - big thumbs up for tackling the gossipers - if more people did that, they'd have to shut their inaccurate freaking mouths!:cursing: I hope they find whoever got your debit card number - you may want to change checking accounts within the bank you use - leave 1 dollar in the account so they can track when someone tries to access it, but otherwise, move on...getting checks reprinted is a minor inconvenience compared to having to fight the alternative...I feel for you. :mellow:

Plain - if you can charleston, you should be able to learn lots of other stuff. My DH is a wonderful dancer - especially loves to line dance and two-step...he's an anomaly! Most african-american men won't touch country music with a 30-foot pole, but he loves it! Actually - he loves any kind of music...with very few exceptions. I get a great workout going dancing with him...:cool2:

SNT - I HAVE to be nice to Plain once in a while - makes the whip strike that much more delicious when they don't see it coming...*insert evil laugh here*

Keep it comin' folks - y'all are the highlight of my morning!:w00t:

Lulac, I'm about 180 mi. east of you....yes it's gotten cold. I love love love that people here break out the heavy coats when the temp drops to the low 60's. Anything below 60 is officially cold. It's such a Texas thing, I think.

My toes were cold coming in to work today. But, I was wearing flip-flops and had the windows down. I love this brisk, but not too cold weather!

Having cold toes reminded me of my old mini-van. Almost 100k miles on it and the heater went haywire. I was living in VA, and it was winter. The heater would blow warm air if I was moving, but as soon as I stopped, it would blow cold air. The way to work took me through several traffic lights, and I was stopped a lot.

I had ice INSIDE my window. That, I didn't love so much.

and the scary thing is ... i'm not from TX, but i'm becoming one of them... i have an MD appt today and will have to 'bundle up' to go this morning... (originally from midwest, so 60s - even 50s are nice...

Glou - Obviously the solution was, not to stop! Lord knows I see that every day...stopping at a red light is apparently optional!

16_15_14.gifPain, I think it is a southern thing when it gets to 60 degrees out and people break out the heavey down filled coats and scarves! They do it here in Alabama also.LOL. Fall and spring are my favorite seasons. But here in Bama you have almost fall, winter, almost sping and summer. So instead of 4 seasons we have 3. (if you add almost spring and fall it = 1 season. so 2 +1=3):cursing:

I think in Texas we get so few chances to wear our "winter gear" we will put it on as soon as possible. LOL

Hey Plain, totally up for the robot.

This thread grows faster than a tapeworm, truly.:cursing:

It's just weird for it to be cold in the am, then really freaking hot by the afternoon. I'm not used to that yet. It's also hard to believe it's really October. I mean, REALLY? October? Am I being Punk'd?

Wait...no, can't be - I'm not famous.

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
