Hey Hun!!

Like somebody else said...men really dont think before they open their mouths and i know how hurtfull it must of been. Im sure out of all the people you would of thought he would be behind you.

But girl!! You use that negativity and use it to your advantage....when somebody tells me i cant do something.....OHH LORD!! im like a woman on fire!! I WILL PROVE EM WRONG! lol and so will you!

You have come so far! and what a great goal to set yourself! I beleive that you CAN do it!! And so do so many others on here... one you start kicking ass with your training....your dh will regret the day he opened his mouth to laugh.

You have my support hun

I hope your hubby has realized his mistake Leslie! I think they just don't realize how much determination we gain from this band! I know for mine (not my hubby yet, Sept 4, BTW) he's heard me amp myself up time and time again, only to eventually fail. He's coming around though.

I signed up for my first 5K, its at the end of Sept. I wanted to force myself to get ready for it. I don't know if I'll be done with the C25K plan by then, but I'm sure gonna try. My man is going to run it with me, he's not started training yet though. I told him I wasn't going to wait on his a$$:wink_smile:

Nuke - Hey, where are you in the program? I'm on week 2 - decided to redo week 1 last week. I wasn't quite ready to move forward. I signed up for my first 5K in November. It's on the 8th. I'm so excited!

DH is doing better actually. He went with me last week to the gym. I don't think he realised the extent I was prepared to go or that I was serious. I've always quit before - never followed through with any kind of exercise program. Not this time though! I'm psyched!

Start week 3 next week. I've started and stopped C25K time and time again so it won't get hard till next week. My first 5K is Sept 28, seemed like forever away when I signed up, but now I'm wondering where I'll be at when it comes up!!

        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!

      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
