Jaime, I'm 34 and I've never felt better, even when I was 21. Once you get over the shock of the nice round 3-0 - you'll see it was worth the transition. Besides, haven't you heard? 30 is the new 20! :)

I just can't believe my 20s are almost over. I am coming to terms with it, most days. I plan to be much healthier and enjoy my 30s much more than in my 20s, so it'll be ok. My husband turns 30 in less than a month and he's really freaking, so I'm doing my best to rub it in. I am four months younger, after all. :biggrin:

I used to always give my ex hell for being older than me (7 months).

Then I remarried and my current husband is 3 years younger than I am.

Dammit. lol

It's from a song lyric that I liked from the "Empire Records" soundtrack.

Ready Steady Go

and all the things she said

Ready Steady Go

was going through my head

I was a total reject from the wrongside of the tract....

thats all I can remember.

Plus I thought it described my situation.

My user name is the name I use for my character on several online games. Been using it for so long in and so many people know me only as Ezma that it's like my nickname.

I started tap dancing when I was 3, and danced my way through school...it even helped pay for my university education (not that I studied dance, but by then I was teaching it). It is one of things I miss the most - any kind of dance demands a fitness and agility that I no longer possess. However, it will come again with the loss of the weight, and my commitment to fitness. I won't ever be a threat to a Broadway show, but I shall enjoy tapping my toes, and shuffling my feet again.

Ok...I participate in a 12 step group...NA...and I was using 12stepn on everything. Then, I found it was taken on a lot of sites, so I morphed it into ts = twelve step or twelve steppin. And the last part is my name, Kelli. I wish I hadn't done it now. After I had been using it a long time, someone asked me if I was transexual. Not that I have anything against transexuals, that's just not who I am.

Anyways...my DH is 11 years older than me. Me and my girls rag him hard about it every chance we get!

        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.

      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
