Ok the aches are back and my chest is tight. UGH I called Richmond to talk to my surgeon but he isnt there today so they said if it gets worse call my pcp. I just want to go home and take a nap...

CoCo, feel better. Please rest and don't leave your bed or couch. I had this for 10 days. It's relentless.

Tamra, You're a big girl. Take the Nips, put them in the trash and pour cleanser all over them. If you keep eating them you'll be hating yourself.

I'm getting lots of work done!

Okay the cheese nips have been kicked to the curb!!

Here is my meal:

Breakfast: 1 grande Decaf skinny latte and 4 oz of a boneless chuck roast I baked

Lunch: 1/2 cup or so frozen yogurt with cookie dough chunks, and so many cheese nips its not even funny.

Dinner: 4 oz baked turkey breast with skin on, and I might have to have 1 more oz because I am not full.

I did my 50 min "Firm - Calorie burning Bootcamp" DVD tonight since it was raining and I didn't feel like walking. It felt soooo gooddd to work my abs again!!! I love crunches!!

Tamra - way to go girl with the crunches! Hey, what's up with the frozen yogurt? Stop with the carbs - eat Protein - start clucking like me!!!:cursing:

CoCo - you need to rest big time. You are so right about TGIF - what a week and I only worked 3 days but with a new boss who has 'all the answers about what needs to be "improved", I am stressed to the gills!! You can't believe how some of my staff were mistreated while I was gone - it frustrates me no end because now I have good people I need to do damage control with. Aarrrggghhh!

Lee - so glad things are going better, although I don't envy your truck feeling! However Candra's & my - glass in the eye feeling probably isn't much better!

John - what's up?

Heather - Happy Birthday:party:what great support from your co-workers. And what a special gift from your Mom.

Jes - have fun with your daughter.

My food for today (protein portions are a little bigger than they should be):

B- 1 hard boiled egg, 1/4 c. LF cottage cheese, 1/8 c unsweetened applesauce, 1/4 piece of whole wheat toast

S - tea

L - 4 oz tuna w/ 1tbsp ff mayo, 1/4 of peeled apple, 1/4 piece of whole wheat toast (TJ's no sugar Daily Bread)

D - 1/3 c of cheeseburger (In & Out); 1/4 c LF cottage cheese; 2 tbsp sauteed spinach, 1/4 piece of whole wheat toast

Pat ~ The frozen yogurt was emotion eating. I was applying for a house with my mom and because we both have lower credit scores we were denied....I was really bumed it was a great 3 bedroom a block away from the school I want my daughter in...I felt sad and hopeless on moving, so it equaled me going there.....

Tam - I am so sorry. Next time call me or one of us on the site - we are here for you to listen and let you vent and offer you support. The sweets never help for long. I've said it before, you are terrific Mom and I know you are trying to do the best for your daughter. She is a lucky girl.

      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
