It's difficult. I'm trying to get back focused.

I went to the Greek Festival and had some lamb, I loved it but my gallbladder did'nt...it messed with me for like 3 days. I might have to have it removed. Another setback:mad:

I could bring Turkey Burgers, and a ball to play volleyball. Maybe someone can bring a batmitton<sp?> set.

hey guys

How are you all doing? It is raining so i'm forced to stay home and am lazy as can be today.

New job is great, but I'm exhausted all the time. When I'm not working, I started dating the perfect inbetween guy. We have dinner 2-3 times a week, at my house or his with my kids or without, he is going to be leaving when the job is done, and I'm ok with that, I think, but we are having such a great time. He has a harley and we go riding whenever we can, and he slept here thurs and i stayed with him last night.

YIKES, I think I'm learning what life is about. He is very healthy, and we do not eat junk. I am actually down to 173 this am. Lowest ever

I just ordered a new Water aerobics cd so I hope to start that next week and get down to 150, my goal weight and possibly tone up a bit

other than that, not much else going on, don't even go out to the bar anymore. I might be growing up. BOUt TIME

anyway

miss ya'll

Hi Jen,

Congrats on your "inbetweenguy"!

Do you use a portable DVD player near the pool for the Water Aerobics cd?

I must not be "growed-up" yet, went to the bar Sat night and had a good time burning them calories. I was dancing with three guys at once! lol ...don't know how that happened??? One minute I was dancing by myself ..the next, they had me surrounded :unsure:...I was scurrred lol! It was good time.

The 10th is 4 days before my 1st post op appointment and I will still be off from work (I work M-F anyway). I can not say 100% yes I will be there... but I will look into it and let you know for sure before hand. If I am able to make it what would you like me to bring?

Its a pleasure to belong to this site and this thread!!

I've updated my ''story'' and added some pics.

Today (Tuesday) I am off to the Doc. for a 3 hour nutrition class on I assume what I can and cant eat after surgery and then they are doing to do an EKG, Chest Xray and Blood work. Can't believe its just around the corner!!!

      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.
