Tracy - it was a very huge thing that you didn't smoke a cigarette. You have no reason to be disappointed in yourself!! It's just a few stupid pounds...don't let it define you! I, for one, am incredibly proud of you...so CHIN UP, girlfriend!!!

Thanks Terri-that means alot. Oh, and thanks to you and Laura for the super charges (2nd hand smoke) I loved it too much!:cursing:

Good evening, Violets..

I am finally home and checking all my emails and pictures and posts and oh yes, saying HI to the Bobster. My flights going home were uneventful, just wish I could have said that about getting there on Friday... I was soooooooo disappointed to have missed so much time with you all. And THANK YOU ALL for the taxi money and THANK YOU Terry for the breakfast!!!

Kris picked me up and after spending the night at a motel, we shopped all day today buying cruise clothes and got to her house at 5:30. We had dinner there, watched some Tigers baseball, went out for (food porn) ice cream and then the bobster and I came home. I have tons to do before we leave for Canada on Thursday. Just wanted to peek in and look at pics and say HOWDY to all my Violet Sistas!!!

I had a fantastic time and it was sooooooooo awesome meeting each and every one of you. I love my Roomie and can't wait til next year. As soon as we get a place and date, I'll start a countdown!! :cursing::biggrin:

I will try and get my pics uploaded tomorrow. Can't keep my eyes open tonight.

Nighters!!

HEY, when I was trying to upload the signature that Laura made for me, this popped up. I can't upload my signature right now, but can do this!!!

I am going to try for a fifth time to post this!! I am writing it first on word, then cutting and pasting so if I lose this post nothing else will be lost.

I want to express and my thanks and gratitude for a GREAT time that I had. I was reluctant to go, but am so glad I did.

The first thanks are to Haydee, Terry, and Tracy for the great food, drinks, alcohol, and the wear and tear on their cars.

Special thanks for my magnet (Judy), which will proudly hold the group picture on my refrigerator, candle (Michelle), note pad and purple pen (Kat), my purple beanie baby (Laura), and last but not least, Pam for the wonderful corsages we all had, and the violets we had in EACH room!!!

A special hug for Judy for her EXTREME patience while her plane was very very very late!!! You were such a trooper.

There was an incident on the river, where Haydee, Terry, and Tracy W came to my rescue!!!! Does everyone remember Martin Short playing that slow synchronized swimmer on SNL? He had Water wings and a nose plug and said he wasn’t a very strong swimmer?? Well I am not a strong toober. That is putting it mildly. Let me just say it was not pretty, and Haydee and Terry took control of the situation while Tracy was risking life, limb, and back/butt to save me (I really wasn’t in that much peril, but it adds to the story!!)! All three of them didn’t even think before helping me and I applaud them!!! I really am moved to tears when I think about how much people helped me. All I can say is aren’t you all glad I wasn’t drinking?!?!?!

Thanks to everyone for the hurried get away we had on Sunday!! It was a mad rush and nerves I am sure were shot, but nobody complained!!

That leads to the next thank you to Haydee, she washed and dried our wet clothes! How nice was that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to Laura for befriending technically challenged me and taking control of my pictures. THANKS!!!! I guess the same can be said for PAM?!?!?

I have never laughed so much and so hard in my life. So exceptional thanks go to Haydee, Jennifer, Judy, Kat, Laura, Michelle, Pam, Terry, Tracy M, and Tracy W. This was a great trip.

Last but not least extra special thanks to Terry for all her help in planning, organizing, and carting me around!!

YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!

Jane

Warm fuzzies! And thanks Jane, you reminded me. YES I AM SCATTER BRAINED.. I am going to get on my laptop and upload Jane's Pics within the next 20 minutes.

Pam about the prizies (what does this word meeeaaan?!) it's.. done. :cursing:

I was a little weepy about my cat tonight, so I decided to take on the bathroom she trashed to remind myself why I had to do it. It was so nasty. I had filled the tub with some Water to keep her out of it, and what do I find? A bazillion flies nesting in there. SIGH. So bug sprayed the hell out of the place, lots of bleach, put down a rug, tidied up everything else.. and we finally have a guest bathroom.

Who is coming to visit me now?!

      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.
