Nicollie I didn't get a chance to text you I had to rush home and get the baby from my mom who has a cold. She isn't very social when she's sick so I had to get there asap.....urgh.

Otherwise happy to be home, and for those on my Facebook I posted pics

HERE IS MY ADDRESS for Saturday - 7474 Whitmore St, Elk Grove, CA, 95758. I am excited to have everyone over. Not sure what healthy food I am making yet.

Maria - my 24 Hour membership is only for the one on Bruceville/Center Parkway. To have a multi gym membership is $3 more a month -the $31.99 I have to pay is really more than I can afford, but need to take care of me. When you say 9:15 do you mean a.m.? I am at work from 6:30 am to 2:30 pm. The 24 Hour that I am a member of has another exercise class that is to music too that is in the evenings.

The boys and I went to the gym for the first time today - they have a 24 day free membership. Taran isn't old enough yet - you have to be 12. I tried the different weight machines and did the elliptical and the stairmaster and the other thing that is sort of like a stairstepper - not sure what it is called. We were there 2 hours and I was sweating. We're going back tomorrow - I'm trying to avoid sore muscles.

Candra - I am going to make your fake rice dish - I steamed the cauliflower and I am going to add mushrooms, ground beef and some Tomato sauce. That way I can get my Protein and vegetables. I'll let you know who it turns out.

Gotta go get the clothes out of the dryer.

Im also going to weigh in tomorrow, Tamra and I are totally gunna be banded together hehehee.... its awesome.

And you WILL be under 250!!

Just got home from the gym, im tired today lol... I didnt get any of my house work done this weekend like I planned. Oh well, it was still a good one.

Where is everyone? Im so excited to see everyone this weekend.....

Oh and the meeting is the 23rd of this month right?? I invited a friend of mine who was banded in July. SHe didnt go through Kaiser and her journey has been quite different. She doesnt really have support and I told her she should come to a meeting with me so I think she is going to come this month. She has lost a total of 50 lbs (she didnt have to lose any before surgery). ANyways....

hope everyone is having a nice SUnday afternoon....

My boys and I got back from the gym a little bit ago. I have some sore muscles today. I did the circuit of the machines and rode 6 miles on the elliptical bike - thought my legs were on fire on the hills.

I washed everyone's sheets, mattress pads and comforters today so guess beds will have to get remade before we can go to bed - I help my two younger ones as they have IKEA beds that you have to lift the mattress up to get to the back side.

Ugh tomorrow is Monday already - how come the week doesn't go as fast as the weekend?

Hi everyone, hows it going? I'm just getting back from a ski trip in Tahoe. I think my band swelled up while I was there from the elevation.

Ash, I have that same waist thing from wally's. I also have the pants made by the same company. I like those too.

Candra glad you are on deck for your fill. I'm sure you will have more restriction.

Donna glad to hear from you, try not to stress though I know it's hard. You are working your band though.

Tamra, Nicolie, Lee, yippie just keep at it.

Pat 2 weeks right? I know you are excited. Start your shopping.

Hmm...we are missing a few, Tina, Reggie, Riley what's going on?

I'll miss you all this weekend I'm sure it will be a blast.:blush:

      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.
