Dave, welcome back! We had all been wondering where you'd gone. I had no idea you worked on a boat for a month at a time. Clearly you have done great while you've been away - 113 lbs - WooHoo! You're a rock star too. Glad you're back.

Thanks, Its great to be back. I work on an ocean going tug and barge thats 630 ft long. We have a gym, treadmill and stationary bike, so workouts are easy. Went to the bridge for a 10 mile walk this morning to keep up with you all.

Dave, Welcome back!!!! We didn't know you worked on a boat and we wondered what happened to you. I'm glad to see you're back, and congrats on losing 113 pounds!

I got a two hour very strenuous, but absolutely glorious hike in today. I "discovered" two more secluded beaches, both of which I had completely to myself.

It's not always easy living on a crazy little island in the middle of the Caribbean, but it's days like this that make all the challenges of living here totally worth it.................

I did 2 1 hour sessions today. 1 at the gym and then we went for another walk. This time not car malfunction induced! My BF starts his new schedule tomorrow so we won't see each other MON-Thurs. It sucks but as I said earlier it will allow me to spend as much time at the gym as I want without feeling bad about not being at home.

I got another session in Sunday. Missed Friday's session due to the storm. :smile2: It has a lot of nerve snowing on my workout day. The good news is that I got the scale moving to the right again :)

Hey Daddy-O, I live in the Virgin Islands, which is approximately 1000 nautical miles south of Miami and approximately 40 miles east of Puerto Rico. We have a wonderful National Park here, and a wealth of great hikes and walks that offer gorgeous vistas.

Sandy, glad to see you're still plugging away with us this month. Good job :)!

I got one hour of cardio in today. Have a great evening everyone!

Hey Daddy,

Not too many people are familiar with the Islands. Great to meet someone who knows these parts!

I hope someday soon you and your beautiful family will return to the islands for a visit, and I will get to meet you all!!!

I love Puerto Rico. I had a layover there a few weeks ago, so I decided to spend the weekend and do a little shopping, etc. I had a great time. The Puerto Ricans are so lively and fun -- I always have a blast when I'm there.

Hi again Daddy,

Thanks for the song recommendation. I will have a listen and tell you what I think.

I do think some big girls are indeed beautiful. Unfortunately I didn't happen to be one of them -- which is why I am really looking forward to being small again :):smile::)!

I did an hour of cardio today. I'm feeling really sore and tired. I think maybe my muscles are starting to feel the strength training. That or the flu. I really hope its the weights.

      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.
