Kat - Glad you are safe and sound back home again. How's dad today?

Hi Tracy - Hope you enjoy this weather no matter what you do! Makes me want to plant some flowers! Nah...I think I'll bead instead. LOL I'm making a necklace where I have to cut shape and hammer each link....fun, but time consuming!

Hey V's~

Beautiful Sunday here! Gonna do some work around the house then Susanne and I are going to go for a drive. There is this area about 30 min. away. Our friends Jackie and Melissa bought their house over there. Well, to get to their house, you get off the freeway and turn left. I WANNA TURN RIGHT! On the right side, there is this beautiful country-side. I think their is a public apple orchard there too. We are going to go on an adventure! LOL...just as I am typing this, she in on her puter and says, "OOOO I wanna go see The Orphanage" movie!" So actually, who knows what we will do. I'll report later!

Laura, I have a few questions for you concerning your SL thing.

#1--not a question!!! I choose the casual jeans at the end, the last one, it is something I see people going around the city in, in your virtual world, plus something most of us could come closer to seeing ourselves in, regardless of whether we would look exactly like that--meaning something the judges may relate more too. With that in mind....

#2--do you know who the judges are?

#3--have you considered making one of your virtual models a model of color?

#4--does your "shop" sell only clothes for women?

I keep thinking, so much of this depends on who is judging---and how much of this they will look at as something they could see in the real world. I mean are they going to look at the clothes and say---well the only one I see wearing something that low cut would be Jessica Rabbit, or are they going to take the virtual reality thing to heart.

Because things that low cut, are seldom even seen in Hollywood. They look very cool! I am not dissing your designs at all----just trying to see them from a judging point---and not understanding how close to reality they will be expecting.

Help me understand!!!!

Good morning! I just got back in for the weekend.......

Charles and Cody went scout camping all weekend so Robby and I have been running around and ended up staying over at my sisters last night.

We went shopping all day... they got their bridesmaid dresses and shoes, I got shoes and a shawl thing that I may wear.... shoes for robby and charles, material for decorations, cutlery for the reception. Took my mom to lunch as a bribe for her to watch robby for a few hours while my sis and my niece and I hit the mall........... I am pooped.

Denise: WHOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO hotmama in that avatar!

OK.. gotta go.

Kat- The clothes I was showing, is what *I* was going to wear, as a contestant being on the show. My clothes were turned into a model (Not of my chosing, part of the show), and the models display it.

I make clothes for men & women.. from elegant and classy, to trashy lingerie! For the contest, they didn't say what to 'enter' with.. so I gave them 4 outfits. One was a dominatrix leather cat costume, a sexy school girl outfit, a salsa dress, and I forget the 4th. It ends up in the contest, there are 8 contestants. 6 of them were ELABORATE fancy ball-gowns. They used my dominatrix outfit (jeez). And the last one, was a weird short dress. They totally went for the ballgowns, but I didn't know that's what they were looking for (they didn't say what to enter with!!). So anyway, next week starts the 'theme' round, so I'll be on par with everyone else (No more, they all have ball gowns, and I have... a dominatrix outfit lol) This week's theme is 'first date', and we have to make 3 outfits.. 1 sporty, 1 casual, 1 elegant.

Have fun Judy!!!

And have fun Pam!

I wish I had places to go see around here. We've been to the Space & Rocket museum countless times, and that's about all there is to do around here. And frankly, that bores me.

I love the haircut denise, and woowoo, I see skin! :smile:

Yep Denise, y'all look great!! You should have your picture printed wallet size and give it to your DH---so he has it to see everytime he opens his wallet!

Ok Laura, so you will learn next week what type of outfit to make next huh? Cool, keep us updated. I am interested, but easily addicted to things like that, and already spend way too much computer time anyway!!!

Well I better get to the store---so I can start cooking.

Be back to check in once I get things going!

        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.

      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
