Hello Ladies, I really enjoyed meeting all of you and hope to see all of you again. The outing was very informative and very warm. Dr. V returns on Tuesday and I hope to get a date some time next week. (Maybe your old date Dianne - smile) I worked late on Monday and couldn't join you Dianne for yoga. Hope to see most of you on Sept 19th & 24th. Until then, Chao

o0o .. are you ladies meeting in Charlotte? If so, if you have anything planned around the holidays (Christmas), I'd love to meet you all while I'm visiting the south :D

Oh, and if you still need help resizing/posting the pics, just give me a yell (or shoot me an email - jess@jessluv.com). Takes like 3 minutes once ya get used to it :(

I'm sure we could arrange a meeting for those that can come while you are here Parvati. We have only been planning one month ahead at the moment, for our informal meetings. The meeting at the bariatric center though I think are the 3rd tuesday of the month or something like that. Someone better organized than me can confirm that though, but I think Angela said there wouldn't be one of those meetings in December.

Parathi it would be wonderful for you to join us. I am sure that we could schedule our Dec meeting around the time you are going to be here. We normally don't set the next months date until we meet so I am sure everyone would love to have you join us.

Starr it was so good to finally meet you. I can't wait to go through the journey with you. We will all be here for you.

Anyone having any luck with the picture? Melissa how is yours or Dianne did your daughter having any luck? You can email to me, I have tons of software on my PC for photos....I love photography.

Hope everyone had a great labor day. We are at the beach and enjoying some time away!!!!!

Yay! Pavarathi can come in December!!! Yes, let's plan around you...we can be flexible!!!

Dianne, you'll be coming up 485, then go South on I-85 for a few miles to the Harris Blvd Exit. I'm pretty sure you go under the bridge, then exit and circle up to the road and head left from the highway...know what I mean? Then cross over 85 and go down the road (Harris) and you will see Chili's and Fridays on the right. Easy cheesy. Did we ever figure out which one? Did we pick Fridays since Dianne hates Chili's? ;) Really, Fridays is great. I think I asked for a poll, maybe on another thread? I have forgotten. But that's how you get to Fridays. Did I get it right, ladies?

        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
