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

And, it's because I thought I was actually ahead of the game, and paying off stuff in advance...ha ha ha.

Oh I'm so sorry Gloucester...banks will get you every time.

However I have to say I cannot relate to paying in advance...my fiscal reality doesn't recognize that concept!

Fiscal reality...where can I get a dose of that?

I'm staring at my coffee cup, wondering if my boss would notice if I slipped some Bailey's into.

Then I remembered: I don't have Baileys.

Seems all my realities are off whack.

I am posting just to say my life is really bad right now. I just need to vent. I don't want to talk to anyone I just want to scream.

You know when something that is about to happen is right but it feels wrong and hurts like hell. Ya that. I don't want to be the one who got dumped. :biggrin:

No, no...none of that, Ms. Lady at the Top!

You can't let anything take away from your strength. YOU CAN DO IT. Want to? Not so much. But, a year from now you'll be far away from this. Where were you a year ago? Two years? Things change and get better, even though you have to go through bad to get there.

That's what gets me through hard stuff. "In one year, everything will be different, and a year goes by sooo fast. Blink - and it's gone."

So, I guess my half-assed advice is blink a lot. :biggrin:

Thanks but no amount of blinking will ever make this stop.

Hugs to you, BBK.

Scream if you want, rant, rage, curse, whimper, cry...all at once, if need be! We'll be here.

Where do you work that mgmt doesn't realize they've hired a tweaker?

I work for an attorney. She is really cheap. She never hires anyone with experience in the law field. That was good for me, since I have a lot of office experience, but none in the law field.

It's getting to the point that I am going to have to say something. She talks about drugs, her drug classes that she has to take because she was arrested for drugs, her bf's record, bla bla blaa. Of course, none of this is in front of the boss. I hate to come across as a tattle tail but it drives me nuts how the boss thinks she has found someone wonderful. Plus I hate talking to her wtih her head bobbing around.

(((BBK))) I am so sorry Brandy. I wish there was something I could do to help!

Susan, I am glad you got your job back. I can't even imagine anyone accusing you of that. It sounds like the rest of the place has your back though.

BBK - I'm so sorry. I thought you were happily married. My favorite thing is to throw a Kleenex box very hard against the wall. Makes a GREAT thwap sound but doesn't hurt the paint!

ATDenise - when, WHEN, will people learn that you get what you pay for?

Glou - I have my checking account backed up against savings in case I pull a dingbat. It's helped a great deal.

Now lasting to post that I am SICK of my cube neighbor sitting on MF'ing calls on his speaker phone! I do numbers for a living; do we think that I can balance ANYTHING listening to his call? I WANT TO SCREAM!!! Thank god for pandora.com.

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

        We have to remember that everyone moves at their own pace. For some it may be harder to adjust, people may have other factors at play that feed into the unhealthy relationship with food e.g. eating disorders, trauma. I'd hope those who you are referring to address this outside of this forum, with a professional.


        This is a place to feel safe to vent, seek advice, hopefully without judgement.


        Compassion goes a long way :)

        Seems it would be more compassionate not to perform a WLS on someone until they are mentally ready for it. Unless of course they are on death's door...

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
