CoCo - OMG - Congratulations!!!! I am so very happy for you! And the wedding is coming so fast! Tell us what you are wearing. It must be hard that he will be away for a while. I wish you both all the happiness in the world.

Hey triplet sister - I am also at my 50% goal - I weighed in at 198.6 this morning. 198 even will put me at 58 down which is half way to 116 lbs! We are rocking this. Once you can eat your Protein you will feel better. Stage 4 is so much easier.

My son is in 2 plays for school this weekend and next, so it has been a busy weekend. I am the House Manager and Conceission chair, so it was been busy, as they have shows Fri, Sat and Sun. He is terrific - they are comedy murder mysteries and he is so funny. It has been fun, but tiring.

John - glad you are feeling better.

Lee - just rest - your body needs it.

Ali - wishing you well. Dr. Park will tell you how much you need to lose before surgery. She only asked me to lose 20 so you may be just fine. You will need to schedule an appt. with Liz, the case manager, to actually get your surgery scheduled.

Riley - so glad the carb thing is over - they are evil! Can't wait to see you on the 20th.

Nite everyone - have a good Sunday

We're having a tea party with sundresses & sun hats. Gonna be in the park so we'll have to do Ice Tea unless anybody has some suggestions on how to heat up the Water in the park - LOL I'm gonna do a Decaf black tea, a green tea, a fruit tea, a thai tea with tapioca pearls & a long island ice tea LOL (JK) Actually, I am truly thinking of doing a spiced rum tea. Baking scones, making lemon curd & finger sammies. Thinking the ol faithful cucumber, a chicken almond sammie & a crab & cream cheese sammie - I've never done this before so if anybody has any insight that would be awsome!

Candra - My sister in law and I have done Tea Parties, only at home. I used my grandmother's china plates (they are pink with lots of flowers on them!) and my sister-in-law had a couple of beautiful tea pots; we dressed up too (even with white gloves!). You could do hot tea in a termos (sp?). The sammies sound great. We did little sweets also - tiny Cookies and triangle bar cookies. You could do "treat" bags with a tea theme - tea bags, little tea bag plates, Mary Engelbreight has some cute tea pot theme and at Michael's they have a lot of her paper stuff in their $1.00 bins. It should be fun!

        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
