I'll say that I don't drink a whole lot, but New Year's Eve in Vegas was a little different. haha. Whatever, though. The props of being young and in college. haha.

Oh, and confession time...I have NO clue why, but right now I am INCREDIBLY horny and the thought of having to wait like 9 hours to see my girlfriend is very depressing...

I can only hope this will subside in the interim... :thumbup:

I confess I had AT LEAST 1 drink a day every day and at least one handful of chocolate every day from XMas Eve through NYE. Needless to say, I was in a pretty good mood every day through the holidays. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that I didn't gain any weight; didn't lose either, but hey, over the holidays, no gain = success. :wub:

P.S. - I stopped smoking. I had started back up right before Thanksgiving so my holidays were pretty much smoking, drinking and gorging myself on chocolate. It was good! he he

Susan, now there's a confession I can work with! :thumbup: Looks great!

When people ask how I've lost the weight, I tell them Portion Control. It IS controlled!

Now for something non band related: Whenever I cook something I pretend I'm on a cooking show and when no one's home, I talk like I'm freaking Paula Deen or something. LOL :) I imagine having a band friendly show on food Network. That'd be nice. :lol: Does that make me crazy?

Oh my God, I know you posted this a long time ago but I do the same thing! I always have. My favorite "meal" to make on my show is PB & J. That was preband though!

Well, I've been banded about 14 months and managed to lose about 95lbs. A couple of weeks ago I started to have bad reflux, etc and had to get a complete unfill on 2/4. When I left the office my doc said "don't go eating everything in sight." I haven't been eating EVERYTHING in sight but sure have been eating every single thing I couldn't eat for the past 14 months. The first night after the unfill I had spaghetti, then over the past couple of days I've had a sub sandwich, chicken mini's, and a host of my other favorites. Next on the list is pizza. :lol:

Luckily I can't eat the amounts I was able to preband. I haven't gained any YET and thankfully I will be getting a fill on 2/18.

        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
