Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here

TracyKS - oh and i wasn't done with you... You know what is best for your child. You have no doubt wrestled with this in your head since Robby first starting showing symptoms of this. You are not taking this decision lightly so don't let Charles make you feel like a bad mother. If Terry were on here she would be able to tell you much better than I can about the weight of this decision. I think she struggled with her son and had to put him on medication. I obviously have no knowledge of what you're going through but can only help you in the aspect of you being an awesome mom that only wants the best for her son. We're all here to support you through this Trace....

That's so weird Haydee, small world indeed...

I know! I couldn't believe it. And she didn't look like she had ever ever been overweight. She was just so thin and tan. I almost called her a skinny bitch when she was complaining of the SIZE 6 dress being too tight on her, but then I realized I wasn't with my VIOLETS and that language might not fly with just anybody, LOL...

AMEN! easier said than done though. I struggle with that with Juan too. He keeps wanting to feed me sweets. They make me happy and mellow... But then I feel miserable afterwards... Ugh. Men.

That's my DH....always wants to see me happy...so when i joke (honestly joking) about picking up sweets....he'll do it! or let me do it! I asked him one day why and he said "because I love seeing you happy and smiling...". I asked him if he liked seeing me mad and upset a few hours after eating the sweets...he said no...but said the smiles were worth it...LOL....and he constantly reminds me that he loves me how i am...not much of a "get back on the bandwagon" push....LOL

I'm not going to even THERE Amanda........ Charles HATES MY BAND! He is jealous of it......... He says my ass is flat and that my hair cut looks like shit..... (I'm VENTING)

I just called him to say that I made an appointment for Robby with his MD and he just wanted to get off the phone........ it is a good thing that there aren't BAD THINGS for me to eat right now.... OK. OK I need to calm down without food........

I did drink one pink glass of Water (pink 30 oz glass)

You will see a complete 180 on me, if he starts doing better in school..... I am pretty sure that I'm depressed/stressed...... I called my company EAP for Robby and the intake lady wants me to call back and make my own appointment..... LOL.. I am afraid to honestly........ If I start unloading EVERYTHING I may just end up divorced, and that is something I'm not prepared to deal with right now..........

Don't let me go MIA....... OK?

Cottage cheese with some Brown sugar Splenda mix and fresh blueberries is like dessert. Liver with brown sugar Splenda and blueberries..... not so much.

        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
