Kat, dear.... don't worry your pretty head about drowning. There are thousands and thousands and thousands of people that float on that river every year and it is extremely rare to hear of any serious mishaps. Now, granted, I have not floated this particular part of the river but it should be a fairly quiet ride. You can always walk around the whitewater if you choose to...and probably 50% of the ride is in knee-deep water! LOL You will NOT drown. I promise. You can always skip whole Water thing if you want and just relax by the pool or go shopping! We'll probably only be gone about 3 hours.

Skip it???? I don't think so!!! Nope!!! Nuh-uh!!! Ain't happenin'!!!

LOL--- I can swim----just not wonderfully!!! I can pass the swim the length of the pool things---and even passed it back in PE classes. I have an issue with Water in my face!! Silly yes. But splash me in the face and I lose my breath!!! If I am prepared it is fine! Something like this I will be expecting it so it won't be a biggie!

I am floating down the river, and someone is going to take my picture so I can show my disbelieving DH and kids!!

LOL~~~ besides surely one of my Violets is a certified life guard!!

I won't let you drown. AND at some point I was a certified life guard. Imagine that? I never actually did it, my mom made all us kids do it when we were younger because they have always had a pool and if we wanted friends over, it was the stipulation.

But really, it's like drowing in your bathtub for tubing (everyone I've ever been anyway). You'd have to lay down and then weight yourself on your back to make you stay under!!

And don't forget-------I have these 2 huge personal floatation devices growing out the front of my chest-------hell they should keep me bouyant all the way to the Pacific!!!!

I'll still be glad to know you are there Laura!!!

Kat... the only time I have perky boobs is when I let them loose in the hot tub. Then they float!! Literally!!! Would that it was that simple!

I have always called the ladies my personal flotation devices LOL. I can't sink, even if I want to. I've tried to float to the bottom of the pool.. won't happen. It's a fight to stay down, I bounce right up!!

I, on the other hand, was blessed with BAZOOMS.

And of course my kids sucked the life out of them so now they are just huge deflated balloons with nipples pointing south. :)

No Pringles cans here----coffee cans maybe!!!

I would be generous and share with you Tracy, and you too Pamela ---but just how would ya like.... hold on???!!!!!!!

My DD made up a song about boobs to the tune of the old song "Rawhide" she called it "Brahide"

Instead of Rollin', rollin', rollin'----it started out Bouncin', Bouncin', Bouncin"

Now I do not know the words to the real song, she was hearing the version sung on the movie City Slickers.....which was made up and somewhat off color as well!!!

Oh the crazy stuff we did!!!

        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
