Did the Wk 1 workout tonight :)

It didn't hurt nearly as much as the last time. I'm hoping that I'm not as sore either :)

Thank you again Mindy for the podcast link!! That was a lifesaver. I ran way too much the first time because I was guessing since I'm not on a treadmill.

Ok this sinus drainage is really killing me ! I made it through half of the work out tonight and i literally could not breathe anymore.

Do you think it would hurt anything to do it again tomorow . to either try to get through the other half or try to do the whole thing ?

I really really want to do this .

Hey Mindy - We so need rain, maybe that would flush some of the crap out of the air.

Not sure what to tell you. I wake up w/the sneezys but after a cup of coffee or 2 I'm ok. Hubby not so much, we put a humidifier in the bedroom last night, and that did seem to help. I work out about an hr after my Breakfast - or it's not likely to happen. Maybe switching night to day??? Not sure that fits into your normal daily schedule. If you feel like crap - maybe a good walk vs running would be best.

I am in too. I am in line to get insurance approval and then surgery, so I will get as far into the plan as I can. For those of you in the Houston area, the ConocoPhillips Rodeo Run is on March 1. Nothing like a goal to get you moving.<br /> <br /> Link for the race:<br /> 2008 ConocoPhillips Rodeo Run

I just a tad south of Dallas, & that looks like something doable for me, if not a goal to shoot for...thanks for passing along.

        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.

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

      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
