well guys......I have to admit, that my ticker really should be changed....but...I am not going to...But, I have not been kind to my body this week or the week before being without exercise, and it caught up with me when I got on the scale tonight to see where I was.

I have not been watching anything I put in my mouth when I was in Florida, I stressed ate and drank the week before waiting on my test results..so I suck bad!!!!

I am going to have to kick my butt in gear to get back on the right track. I am going to take D's advice from the other thread and introuduce new exercise along with my cycling that I hope to get back on board with this week.

Sad part is, is I also start school on Monday. Most of all of it is online, but it is still allot of work. I hope I can concentrate on all of it and get back to this challenge.

Sorry if I have let all of you guys down.....You are all doing great.....

Don't beat yourself up over it Traci. Life happens. I am just glad you had a good outcome to the Dr. stress. You are back home now..so you can start to get back to your routine as much as possible.

I know the added stress of school is here for a lot of us. I looked at my classes tonight and already the amount of work that is due on Thursday is overwhelming. But, as always, we are strong women and will push through this time as well!

We all need to remember to make and take time for ourselves. Do good things for ourselves and good things will happen. So exercise!

I could never be disappointed, you have accomplished soooo much with many things. You are a huge role model to myself with your weight loss, your exercising, everything!

Thanks for the pep talk...I better get to bed for work tommorow...yuck>

Traci, I LOVE YOU GIRL!! Thats the beauty of the band....you will be fine and you know it. It is there now when you need it. Even the skinny people eat the wrong foods when on a vacay, so don't beat yourself up. This would be the perfect opportunity to put on those "fat" pants you have and then you can smile!!!! Loves!!

Well....those 2 weeks are behind me now, and it is time for me to get my butt in gear and move on.

I may have back pedaled some but that does not mean I cant start going forward again.

So to speak.....

So.....now that my overwhelming fear of these online classes for school is behind me, I am going to put my foot forward tommorow and get back on the roll of kicking some butt!!!!!

You are rockin and I am super duper proud.

Hang in there with your classes....I know you will do well....tell your husband that you will make enough money for him to take some time off work and relax...LOL

Ok girls..

So I am back on the work out wagon. Tonight...I even surprised my hubby. We rode 2.5 miles around the neighborhood, then when we pulled into the garage I told him I wanted to try jogging. Now keep in mind I have not done any running what so ever (Unless it was to catch the ice cream truck) Since I was in 10th grade, which was 17 years ago. So we ran .4 miles and let me tell you, I was huffing and puffing...wheeeeeew

Then when we got back we did the free weights. So..we will see how my legs feel tomorrow!

I can't believe we are all taking classes also! We will be able to support each other in more ways than one..thats for sure!

two pounds for you too TL....great job.......its amazing how two pounds can make a difference.

I love not having the scale out all the time to step on at all times of the day. I think it has really helped me in my fight against myself to NOT get on it everyday. I don't really crave it anymore, I just know on Monday, I get to get on it, and it BETTER have moved!!!

Good job on the jogging TL, it does get a little better with the breathing especially if you are riding your bike too!!!

      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
