Glad to hear you're ok Betty...I know all too well what you mean with being busy. It's been crazy. I'm happy to help LBT in anyway I can so I was glad to be asked to become a moderator :scared2: Now....just gotta figure out how to do what needs to be done hahaha. I'll play around with it more over the weekend so I can help more.

I'm peeking in just for a few but, wanted to wish everyone a wonderful day! Still stressing here at work but, keeping positive.....as they say "This too shall pass" right? :wink2: Now if the weight would pass on through that dang scale that would be just so cool. It went in the wrong direction again this morning grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Never ending battle...thank goodness for this band though because without it and all this stress....I'd of gained 20 pounds by now. UGH.

Hope you're all doing well and hope to chat with ya soon! HUGS

Good Morning Y'all!

I sure miss being able to "peek" in at work, but it is a big "no-no." So, I can't be here as much as I would love to be and I sure miss it!

Mandy - I can't remember if I told you or not, but Happy B-lated birthday if I didn't. I sure hope you are feeling better! If I go back to read it now, I won't have time to post!

Pat - Hope you are enjoying your trip! I bet you are out sunning that beautiful bod in a sexy suit huh?

Cindy - Quiet Miss Cindy, how's it going girl? You must be busy like the rest of us.

Sherry - You'll do fine, it won't take long and you'll be doing it all. Glad to have you aboard!

Patty - Hey girl, long time no see. Sounds like you have the perfect job for getting that weight gone!

Diane - How's that fill doing?

Kat - You will have to fill me in again, did you go check on the TT yet?

Eileen - You still need to post a picture of that hunk sometime. You can take a picture of him while he is teaching.

Dianne - It sounds like you business is doing well, congrats to you!

Jessica - The exercise queen! I need your energy and dedication.

I know I am missing someone, I just don't have time to go back now. So, for those I missed, good morning and I'll catch you next time.

Have a good one!

It's been cazy around here. We finally got Abi in a special ed class (self-contained). She starts there on tuesday. We decided to let her finish the week with her regular class, and have v-day with her friends. She is very upset about the move, she's finally made friends and now she has to start all over. She refused to talk to me all day wed, and refused to ride home with me after the party yesterday. She wanted to ride the bus, so I let her. I know it will get better and I know she will make new friends, the new teacher is great. It's just going to take some time. Please say a prayer for her. ~Mandy

Mandy, I know it must have been hard to make the decision to move her, but kids rebound quickly, hopefully, this will be true for DD.

Hey there lovelies, Hope everyone is doing alright!

I seem to be having a one bite "stuck" day WTH???? Just when I think I have it all figured out....... Oh well, it keeps me on my toes, and I still can't complain! I feel like I've dodged the bullet on latent diabetes (I hope)

Today I treated myself to some new lingere (sp?), DH is so complimentary about the weight change. He's the greatest!!! Has always been there for me, no matter what.

Countdown's still on!!!! 13days 'til Cozumel Mexico!

It's still cocktail hour, Pat.....I'm toastin' ya! Have a great time:cheers2:

Good Morning Y'all!

Just jumping in to say hello, got to get started on the house so I get it done early so I can watch the race this afternoon. I also have to run over to my DB house so that will take a while.

Pat - I haven't gotten it yet, maybe Monday! I'll let you know when I get it, I can't wait!

Mandy - If I could send you some mud buggs I would. Boy they were so good! We broke the record for the most eaten at the place we were! They didn't realize that we have done 3x that amount before! It was good and it was a really fun time.

Diane - I bet you are getting excited! I have 9 weeks to go and I am excited!

Well, catch you all later!

Betty, I can't believe it's not there yet, it's quite a large box. It was sent USPS, not UPS. You're going to Mexico too! I want to go.

I got raccoon eyes today, from wearing my sunglasses, now that's attractive. My legs look tanned, too bad I'll lose it before warm weather gets to my house.

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        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

    • buildabetteranna
