Love skiing - DH came home last night with snowboarding "stuff". I'm like your kidding? You are NOT that coordinated, he gives a whole new meaning to being able to Walk & Chew Gum at the same time.

He played college Football - only knows how to throw guys around, I can't WAIT to see him try snowboarding ... Will make my trip:)

YES !! *he does have a butt...:embaressed_smile:" hee hee....

The snow pants he bought look like a down comforter. Snowboarding just appears to be too much work, I bet I find his A$$ in the lodge on lift 9 having some wine after his first run:)

yep i bet you do... it looks very cool but its just not as much fun as skiing. Of course i was a teen when i did this and thats when snow boarding was just getting popular.

he will be a crying whinney baby at night and youll have to kiss it all better i bet! Well that would be me anyway

Is it home time yet?

Thanks Lulu and Whosya on the weight loss!! I get really frustrated when my scale doesn't move - grrrrrr. I know - the #(*#%&^ scale is evil and I can't stay off of it!!

My new mantra - I'm gaining muscle - I'm gaining muscle - that's why I'm not losing weight. Oh yeah - I need some fairy dust ...

Have fun skiing Lulu!! My DH wants to do snowboarding next time we go. Scares me a tad and NO way they are getting me on one.

Last time I went (13 years ago) I fell down after the first trip up and had to be ski'd down in a body bag - nice. I'm hoping I'm a little more coordinated now so next time I won't hurt myself!

I am so glad to have my C25K family. Today was week 3 day 2 and I DID NOT FEEL LIKE RUNNING. I decided to go to the gym and had talked myself into just doing the eliptical--pick up the program again later. Once I arrived at the gym, I figured that I might as well do the program. So I just decided to run a little slower. It worked--as I finished the program--all that I could think of was wdaddy's encouragement....I could just think---I can't wait to tell my C25K family--that I pushed through. Thanks for all of your encouragment. It's good to have someone to be accountable to....

Whosya - still jealous over FL!! Even if it's gorgeous here in TX today :eek:

You guys are the greatest!!!!!!!!!!!

I ran Week 5 day 3 - 20 minutes!!!!!!!! I was really unsure if I would make it but I did :cool2: Still did my sprint at the end - but started tiring out with 15 sec left - had to slow down right at the end. I knew I didn't have the energy for the sprint but tried it anyway.

Have a great rest of the weekend!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
