Hemphill, Texas. On the border with Louisiana, on a big lake called Toledo Bend. If any of your husbands are fishermen, then they have heard of it, I promise!

Hello Maysters, I live at the top of the world, Barrow Alaska, I think our high yesterday was about 13 degrees. Everything here is still white, and the Ocean is still frozen. Spring whaling has begun...

Hey Allison!!

I love living in Sharon, its a great community. They are planning on building a huge mall not too far from the cinema's and if you have been over by Gillette stadium, boy will you see some changes...

anyways, my surgeon is Dr. Lautz at Brigham Women's. I did so much research on the area's surgeons including contacting the state board of medical licensure to look at his record. He is the director of the bariatric center there. I have my first appt with him on May 8th and I cant wait.....keep me posted on your progress and let me know when you are having surgery.

Hey Kim, I actually worked as a waitress at Gilette stadium. I worked all the football games and served the players and such, it was alright but the days were REALLY long, I left a couple months ago. But yeah when I was there there was always tons of construction and such and it took forever to actually get into the parking lot.

      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
