I did! I was hoping to meet you for lunch when you are in town. Is that next week?

YES! You damn sure do qualify for the close to goal group! Congrats to you! The last fill must be working, eh?!?!

I kept doing the same thing. Now I'm trying to gain, went a little overboard!

Isn't it great to be at/near goal? Did anyone ever think it was going to happen?

I'm there 7/12-19. I haven't had a fill since February, it was dh who needed one. I'm not going to lose the last 7 pounds unless I stop going to Johnny Carino's Italian Grill like I did today though. Yum!Actually, I ate about 1/4 of the meal, so I wasn't that bad. Looks like I have dinner and tomorrow's meals all mapped out for me. Yippee for leftovers! MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

I love this. If you had told me six months ago i would be in size 6 shorts this summer, I would have said you were dreaming.

I also love this section of the board. Do I have permission here to NOT be helpful, understanding and earnest? Not that I want to be rude or bitchy, just a little looser. And that's looser, not "loser."

Oh hell, to hell with the newbies. There is an idiot that BELIEVES I ate three hams, 15 chickens, and a blooming onion in 20 minutes days after my sleeve surgery. Gahhhhh

How the hell will the girl ever figure out a band??

I'm around, sort of.

My FIL has become really frail, and after close to 3 months in hospital we found a place in a nursing home. MIL dosn't drive, so guess who gets to drive her around?

Anyway, I am around.

I saw that reply Wasa :thumbs_up:

It seems as though the whole entire universe is in an uproar lately. Green and I were chatting about this via email earlier today. It's all over, people are weird lately, they are stressing, volatile, rude, freaking out kinda weird.

Maybe it's the Water...

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
