Sharing celebration



Recommended Posts

Okies . . . I'm a year younger today (yeah, yeah, that's a shameless plug for birthday wishes, I'm very bad :rolleyes2:) . . . but I wanted to share my celebration . . . I'm going shopping for some NEW CLOTHES this weekend, yahoo! I need something that fits, LOL :bananapowerslide: Time to treat myself to some new outfits!

Plus, I got me a personal exercise trainer! He's very handsome, young, golden blond hair, beautiful soft brown eyes, trim, fit, he's just gorgeous! He's gonna help me get into shape for sure!

And best of all, my hubby's not jealous! :lol:

Ok . . . here's a picture of him:

Finally, I'm a dog owner! YEAH! I've been wanting one for a while. This is Jasper, my new Golden Retriever puppy. We're gonna be doing some serious exercising together! :target: Jasper is still with his mother, but I'll be picking him up this coming Sunday. I can't wait!

More pictures to come . . . I might even get brave, and put me in one of them! :P

OMG Lori.....HE'S GORGEOUS!!!! I'm so excited for you!! I know you've been wanting a puppy for awhile and I'm just so thrilled that you have a new member of your family. Awwww....big hugs to you, my friend:huggie: Now we can BOTH be crazy dog ladies!!

And congratulations on your upcoming shopping spree!!:crying: I was going to reply to your other thread talking about the dreaded "in between sizes" (UGH that's the worst) but it sounds like you've pushed past a plateau....CONGRATULATIONS!!

Again, I'm so darn happy for you and Jasper is INSANELY CUTE. Trust me, as an owner of a Golden Retriever, he will DEFINITELY keep you moving. Can't wait to hear more updates on him (and you of course)

BIG HUGS!!

Happy Birthday!

Why do I feel like Frosty everytime I say that? Anyway, have a fantastic time. Enjoy the shopping and the new puppy! I have two and a cat, they definately can keep you busy.

Guess Squishy isn't a very good name for a dog. Still... just keep swimming.

So cute!!! I am jealous! My "puppy" is 7 years old and a great trainer! I bet Jasper is going to be great! He will probably good for weight lifting for a while before he is able to go on those walks.

What did you buy for your birthday?

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes, everyone here is so wonderful! :redface: I feel like this is my second home and family, I just lurves you all! :lol:

I'm off in a moment here to go on my "shopping spree" . . . hoping to find some nice summer outfits!

ReadySteadyGo - Jasper the friendly dog, LOL! Cute! Not to be confused with Casper the friendly ghost, yes? hehe :biggrin:

Amy - Thanks for your kind words sweetie! Well, I always was crazy, but yes, now I can add dog to it! I pick Jasper up tomorrow, I can't wait! :thumbup:

Michelle - hubby bought me a watch, and the shopping spree is part of the birthday celebration. :blink: My personal trainer/puppy just happened to come about at this time - I've been looking for that "special friend" for awhile now.

Thanks again everyone - you all mean so much!:rolleyes2:

Yes, by all means, post some pics of those new birthday clothes! I just can't bring myself to do a lot of shopping yet. I did buy a pair of size 16 pants to wear to my nephew's graduation. That was 3 weeks ago, and I put them on today, and I'll be danged if they're not already a little baggy. I'm going home today and try on some of the 14s in my closet. I am absolutely amazed at what a huge difference 5 or 10 pounds make in how my clothes fit. Is this cool, or what?

Ha! I guess I'm late to the party. Well, Happy Belated Birthday anyway! Hope it was as great as it sounded.

Your new baby is cute as ever! He will keep you moving, moving, moving... that's for sure! :sad:

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
