Gruene Violets



Recommended Posts

I used to have a tshirt (Becky bought it for me, as an inside "joke" about Rick's ex!) It said....

Roses Are Red...

Violets Are Blue...

I am Schizophrenic....

And So Am I....

No I'm not,

Yes you are.

No I'm not,

Yes I am...

And the arguing text swirled down the side and onto the tail in the back. I never wore it, I did not want to make fun, afraid it would hurt the kids. Well a couple of yard sales ago, it was in a box, and Abbey saw it, she begged to have it! It is her Mother! She loves the shirt. Cracks me up. She sleeps in it!

My Mom brought me home a shirt from town today---I keep telling her to wait! For one thing our taste is not always the same. She wants me to dress like she does, and I am not ready! LOL This one is not bad---pretty actually! I might even bring it with me!

I am so ready for this trip!

I am rethinking what to wear tubing. I was going to do my swim suit top at least, and maybe some cut offs. But think I will make sure my top is well covered. I do not want sunburned to where the compression garment or my bra might hurt----so gonna think about maybe my swimsuit cover up and some shorts---that way even if I burn, my bra would not be uncomfortable---know what I mean??? Can you tell I am totally overthinking the surgery thing??? LOL

Speaking of funny T-shirts, I once offered this guy 20 bucks for the shirt off his back. I would have offered more, but didn't have any more on me. It read:

When I grow up, I want to be Martha Stewart...That bitch can do everything!

I am also bringing a carry on. But I know that if I find something I MUST HAVE and it won't fit, I'll ship it home. I'd like to find a great purse/wallet thingy, but not really sure. I got a great purse in Cape Cod last year (4 different colors of soft leather) but it is too heavy for summer. Now I am using a cheapo one from Wally World and the damn thing broke! (Get what you pay for). Anywho, I'm sure I'll find something to buy...always do.

I am soooo jazzed. I made my hair appointment for May 15!!! Nothing but the bestest for my Violets:tt1::cool2::lol::thumbup::laugh::)

In the "great minds think alike" theme:

I'm desperate for a spring/summer purse, too!

And...

My hair app't is May 8 (gotta give it some time to lose that "just got it cut" look!)

You guys are funny

I too am bringing a large suitcase so I can have room to bring stuff back and a small carry on.

I so need my hair done today but don't have the cash so it kind of works out, I'm going to go next week and it will be perfect for our trip. Who knows, I need more chocolate in my hair so I am not sure what color it will be

My hair appointment is the 13th!! Nail appointment on the 1st. I loved the last haircut I got and discovered a flat Iron so now doing my hair is so much easier and I don't have to pack two curling irons!!

You CAN teach an old dog new tricks!!

I LOVE my flat Iron, dd and I use it every day (she has my nasty hair) to the point where the spring just went in it.

I was just thinking this morning, I need to call Lori--my stylist---then realized it is Monday, will have to do it tomorrow!!!

I have a fairly new purse, I bought in JCPenney's ---but it is really small. For traveling I would like it to be bigger, to hold my book for the flight, etc. So I may dig into the depths of the closet and find one to carry for the flight. I have a small, not much bigger than a wallet, thing----that has a credit card holder, and a change purse type of thing in it. It has the super long strap, so you can throw it on crossed over your shoulder, and have your hands free. I like to use it when we do flea markets, or the zoo----it is probably not real fashionable, but it is super lightweight, keeps what I need and nothing else---and leaves my hands free. I have it laying on the bed---so I can put it in the suitcase!!

I still need to buy a waterproof camera, and get all my memory cards, and chargers together to put in the camera case---so I can take LOTS of pictures!!!! My small digital camera will fit in my mine purse---or a pocket, so I am bringing it, leaving the big camera at home. But will likely bring the camcorder----not sure.

And the excitement builds!!!!

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
