Win: Tried something new ....Welp I did the Pilates ummmm it's not really my cup of tea! I have to have more intensity. Although it's a full body workout, if I'm going to pay $300 to $400 a month on a Pilates package I need a little bit more! GIVE ME MORE.

hahah I tried that and yoga and I wanted to do a burpee or run. But it did help with other stuff like stretching and balance. But right now where I'm at, I like the high intensity workouts

Conquering the Beast: I am here to report a win. I have conquered the beast and that is the TREADMILL. I used to have the utmost disdain for the treadmill. I never wanted to be on it and I always exercised outside on the walking/running trail. So I mentally meditated and conditioning my mind to imagine my favorite walking trail, which has hills, my favorite trees, and I follow the same trail on the treadmill. I meditated on all the trees that I meet, all my markers and I have been able to successfully enjoy the treadmill! major win. So this means that I have no excuses to not move. I can no longer say oh it's cold outside so I can't go on my favorite walking trail so I won't exercise movement is me, and I am movement.

The cost is why I'm not able to get plastics done, otherwise I'd go breast, 360 and arms. 😔 good luck and safe travels!

@BlondePatriotInCDA I wish surgeries of all types were more affordable even bariatric surgery some people can't afford those surgeries or insurance will not approve it. It's such a life changing surgery that more people need. As far as plastics, yes it needs to be way more affordable. Hey, you might wanna look into foreign travel! Colombia 🇨🇴 top plastics doctors do great work! Everyone deserves to get their nips and tucks.

Lol I agree and I'll look into it! I hate that I've come this far only to still be too embarrassed to wear short sleeves or shorts!

That is how I feel and what I said to the surgeon when he was warning about the scars on the arms if I go ahead with the arm lift he proposed.

I pointed out that as they are now, and have been since I remember, I would never dare to wear something that did not go to my elbow at least and if the scars turned out that bad well then so be it but at least the shape in sleeves would be better but that I would hope he would do such a good job that I would not have a roaring red scar for the rest of my life and that I would be happy to show a bit of a scar than all the loose skin I have now.

Boob job is approx 10k which I don't have but it something I might start to save up for, after I have paid off the 2.8k for the arm lift. Legs he won't touch due to lymphedema so seems I will be forever stuck wearing ankle length clothing. In the meantime I have bought some new bras that give a nice shape and waiting for an order of daisy oil which has been recommended to me to help the skin elasticity so will see.

Oh that is not the full price, that is the contribution I have to pay and the public health insurance pays approx. 80%.

Have you tried on some bikinis? You may want to start early as you may have to order them or at least go to a few shops. Sometimes with augmented breasts they can be difficult to find if you are a really small band with a larger cup which I suspect. DDD cups and up are not easy to find in smaller bands. Even DD is few and far between in lots of less expensive stores with smaller bands. They think to have bigger breasts you must be a larger frame or if you are a larger frame you must have larger bust. They need to stop thinking and just make all the sizes. 🤣

      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.
