I haven't been banded yet either. I have only started the process and will have my intro meeting next month. But anyways, I totally love the vintage pin up look! I swear that once I achieve my goal...that is how I will reward myself. I don't care how far I have to travel and how much it costs, I am gonna do it! My hubby will probably think I am nuts because I am not sure he knows about my interest in that style. But I think he would appreciate the end result!

Barbara - You should look up Boo Boo Kitty and take a look at her pics. You may find inspiration there. She does pinup pics and she looks amazing.

Hey, come with us. I am coming to see NYC and staying in Manhattan before a cruise. Im doing 3 days in NYC and the 5 day QM2. I bought 2 formals. I hear they get totally decked out on the QM2. I think I might hit right below 140 lbs by the time this cruise leaves on July 1st. We have a black and white ball the 2nd night and a red white and blue ball the 4th night and see the fireworks in Boston Harbor on July 4th.

Im not sure I will look "fabulous", but Im certainly going to look better than I did the same time a year before. Come along, and you can look fabulous for this July 4th weekend. You dont even have to fly there. Maybe we can both meet husbands and cross that off our lists too!!!

1) be surprised that Water in the bath tub goes all the way around you;

2) be surprised the carpentry elves have rushed ahead of you and rebuilt all the lunch booths "big enough" for you to fit;

3) wonder how to adapt to NOT being the biggest person in every room you go into..........

etc.

those are on my list also.

2 - Buy a bathing suit and not cover it up with shorts and a t-shirt when we go to the ocean in a few months

3 - Wear high heels, now that my feet shouldn't hurt so much from carrying around an extra 80 pounds!

Was just banded on 2/24 and I've got a way to go but I can't wait to:

1) Tuck my shirts in a cute pair of jeans.

2) Exercise and be active with anything without worrying about looking like a blob or not being able to do it.

3) Take more pictures of me with my family. I play The Photographer now so I don't have to be in the photos.

and to add more:

4) Look good in a bathing suit.

5) Feel GREAT in my body!

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
