But would you come if I could lasso the other 2? Besides Love Field has such a romantic sound like I am going to HappyTown or Pleasantville.

Sure, for me it's only a 40-minute drive! Fluffy's the one who'd have to make a major effort. And you, of course!

If you did get together, I'd come and be your videographer! Great excuse to see one of my favorite states!

I am glad that everyone has future plans! I read some of them and thought "Yes! I want to do that as well." My ultimate would be to learn how to properly surf in the ocean and be successful at it. Maybe somewhere like Hawaii or Australia. I would worry about sharks though. And the hubby wants me to go see "The Meg." :lol:

Skydiving, ride roller coasters. When we go to Wisconsin Dells next month, I’ll be able to zipline. Kayaking on the Chicago River. When we fly to England next year, I’ll be able to sit in the middle seat next to my wife comfortably and pass our son back and forth. When we go to the beach next summer, I won’t need an enormous reinforced beach chair.

I haven’t told anyone but being overweight has prevented me from planning a wedding or having children. Now that I’ve had the surgery once i get to my goal weight I want to do both of those things! I also want to go on outdoor adventures and not worry about being out of breath or being in pain

Oh there are so many! Roller coasters or amusement parks right now I'm scared to step foot into one due to getting to embarrassed a couple years ago. Sky diving w/ my wife. She wants to go so bad and unfort doesn't understand that I'm simply not able to do because of my weight. Hiking. Being able to physically keep up w/ my family members at outings!

Gah. The list could go on.

I have so many. I am only 22 and I haven't ever lived. So here are some of mine.

1. Go out on a boat and scuba dive on the reef, not being afraid of not being able to get back in.

2 . WHITE Water RAFTING (This is one my big life dreams)

3. Ride on an airplane and feel comfortable.

4. Wear a swim suit and feel confident.

5. Go out to a club and actually dance and not be embarrassed.

6. Ride a roller coaster.

7. Fall in love.

8. Everything else in life. I am so ready to feel free.

        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.

      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
