The post from HarleyNana was letting us know what we already knew. She didn't know that we had heard. Thank God...I thought it was something in addition to what we already knew....

Kat-we are still praying and sending love your way!

Home from work and I'm pooped.

Not sure how to take what HarleyNana had to say to us. I'm sure she means well but ALL I wish is for the best for Kat, Manda and Kinsey. I really don't see any of us saying anything to hurt Kat. She's our sister. In fact I mailed a card today to Manda to let her know she is in my thoughts.

I'm sure we all wish her love and hope.

Tomorrow I will be gone most of the day. I have to work in the morning than head over tothe Doc's to give blood for tests. Than my Aunt is having surgery so I'm headed over to hte hospital, it's just a hernia repair but someone needs to be there when she wakes up. I'll be home in time to fix something to eat and than it's our shift at the hospital. So it will be late before I can check in.

Judy, I am wishing you and your family as much luck, faith and hope for your journey. I will keep all of you in my prayers.

Ok for us that have no children and get grossed out by all that birthing gunk, can you take it to the Baby Thread if there is one. Just the nasty gunky talk. I can handle the baby kicking and heartburn and decorating. LOL.

Everyone have a great evening and I will be thinking of all of you guys tomorrow. Hugs to all of you.

I was driving today and this old Travis Tritt song came on, it's my favorite of his. I got to thinking of all of you and how thankful we have been here lately. So I copied some of the words for you to read.

It's a great day to be alive.

I got rice cooking in the microwave

Got a three day beard I don't plan to shave

And it's a goofy thing but I just gotta say

Hey, I'm doing alright

Yeah I think I'll make me some homemade soup

Feelin' pretty good and that's the truth

It's neither drink nor drug induced

No, I'm just doin' alright

And it's a great day to be alive

I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes

There's some hard times in the neighborhood

But why can't every day be just this good?

Sometime when you get the chance, listen to it.

Hey Vi's...

??? I am deducing that someone named HarleyNana posted something about Kat that we already knew & that she may have insulted us & that she deleted her post??

At first I thought TracyK's "Something we didn't already know" comment was that I'd be grateful for a heating pad & my drink -- ha ha! That made me laugh!

Sorry Suzie, but this is the only thread I come to on here any more, so I just go w/the flow of the conversation. Just do what I do when Judy uses her trucker's language, I put my hands over my ears and sing "la la la la la la la" to myself! :thumbup:

I've been invited to go to be a panelist for the Blue Bunny ice cream! How funny it THAT??? "Isn't it ironic.... don'tcha think..."

No more cran left... just the vod... as soon as ds gets home from soccer, I'm going to bed!!

Love my Vi's!

What the !@#$ are you talking about, Michelle?? What !@#$%^ trucker language are you $%^&ing talking about???

Are your ears covered yet???:thumbup::tt2:

Well, the day is done and Grandma is pooped. Ethan was here until 6 p.m. We had a fun day with reading and doing online games and playing Wii of course. He'll be back tomorrow and the rest of the week. Jen was a bit better today and on two meds now. Hopefully each day will be better. I'm still doing well on eating, though I did make a pre-packaged dinner tonight and it was one of those DON'T EAT THAT ones. I just had a few bites of it.. chicken, Pasta and spinach in a parmesan cheese sauce. The Bobster ate a bunch of it and he's still pb'ing even 5 hours later. It really did him in, but at least we learned a lesson not to have pasta!

I'm going to head to bed. Ethan will be here at 8 and I have to go to the hospital and do my shift. Everyone have a good night. sleep well. Continued prayers to Kat and Manda.

        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.

      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
