(putting this here because part of this is a rant :smile:)

I think, hehe things here have been insane. The hubby got back last month (I can’t believe it’s been a full month now!) and since then we found out we are moving!! I started thinking of a song “OH HAPPY DAY”. England here we come baby!! We are moving in Jan/Feb but since it is the AF moving us nothing is 100%, we are waiting for the other shoe to drop and tell us “oh sorry not moving there”.

Now for the rant part of it (even though ENGLAND!! WEEEEEEEE) OMG we have so much crap in this house!! I have started going room by room making lists of what needs to be done and what can go/stay. HOLY CRAP so much crap its just not even cool anymore. The stuff we have to worry about with the animals, clearing quarters here in the states, looking for places in the UK … ARG ..

Lets not even start on the passports, and having all our ducks (read as documents) in a row so they don’t say “Oh this isn’t right, you can’t leave the airport” … that is my biggest fear.

But … OMG I AM SOOO MOVING!

SO cool…

Oh yeah, down 50lbs … (will update the ticker one of these days) slow and steady, bit to slow for my taste but hey my doc is thrilled with the weight, and says that unless I plateau and can’t lose more weight he wont do another fill. Its alright with me I guess, I told him I wanted to be really conservative and he is taking me at my word.

*looks at watch* EEK! Time to get the kids out the door, bring the hubby some coffee and Breakfast at work, then bring mah pants to the tailor cause I am to cheap to buy brand new britches just to have them tailored down in a bits time. LOL EW and grocery shopping cause I am watching a friends kids Wed- Fri … I really REALLY need to learn to say NO more often.

Toodles!!

Hey Pix, welcome back! Sounds like you are going to be one busy lady. My stepson was stationed in Mildenhall a couple of years ago when he was in the airforce. He actually met his wife there. Then, he switched to the army and they are now based out of Germany, but he is currently serving in Iraq. Anyways, he loved Mildenhall.

That's fabulous news - I hope it does come through.

And yes, we accummulate a lot of stuff. I relocate about every 3-5 years and still I am amazed at the crap I manage to collect between moves! Each move I throw out more stuff, but somehow, the law of the universe is, if there is empty cupbaord/attic/garage/shed space, it must be filled!

Keep us posted.

      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.
