Thinking about an East Coast Bash



Recommended Posts

Hi All!!

I have not been in touch in awhile ...I have read all summer but not really posted much. I worked at my summer camp all summer and just got the kids back to school. I squeezed in a two long weekends in Disney as my vacation and here I am it is Septmeber again! I just was in the city today for my fill and I can tell you it was great. The weather has been gorgeous here. The Rolling Stones are at the Garden tonight and the city was buzzing today. I actually stayed and shopped all afternoon and let the hubby get the kids from school and feed them. I considered trying to buy a ticket for the concert as I walked past the crowds gathering outside the Garden but the prices I was quoted were way too much!!! I went down the stairs to the train back to Jersey. I feel like I have some decent restriction. I went all summer the same weight within a few pounds . ....Anyway I would love to meet you guys let me know I would love to see you all in person and talk. I am still a closet bandster and the only time I really get to talk to anyone is in the office when I get fills. Of course this site is great too.. Let me know the details I am in- if you'll have me.

Alexandra sorry but Chinese is out. One of the girls doesn't care for Chinese. No biggie just need to decide on something else.

Indian, Italian, Steak, I am easy. Kirsten is looking into alternatives as well. Can you think of another restaurant close to "that area". LOL!!

Kelly Ann the more the merrier.

Kirsten suggested this restaurant. IT sounds like fun actually. SO Alexandra and the rest what do ya think?

Anyone else joining us on Saturday the 24th at around 5:30p?

For Saturday dinner: Ellen’s Stardust Diner, 1650 Broadway on the corner of 51st Street. Looks like a fun time- 50’s diner with singing wait staff. The menu looks decent, too----everything from burgers to nachos to sandwiches. Prices not bad at all either. Try www.ellenstardust.com and let me know if it’s okay.

        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
