Remember?



Recommended Posts

What kind of things do you remember as a kid. Like candy, toys, clothing, etc.

When I was 6 I REALLY wanted this doll called Velvet. You turned the knob in the back and her hair got short, you pressed her belly button and pulled her pony tail and her hair got long.

Oh how I loved that doll. A few years after I got her I decided she needed a hair cut ROFL !!!

I had an easy bake oven. I also had My Little Ponies that had tails like your doll. You could pull the tails out really long, and if you turned their heads back and forth it got shorter.

I also had one of those dolls where you could do the make up and hair. And one of them, the hair changed color when you heated it up with a crimp or curling Iron. Or maybe it was one of those Water ones, so there was no 'heat' envoled... I don't remember, lol.

:D

As a kid I would set an alarm to be able to watch this cartoon. Anyone remember him? I would sit in the living room and yell with him at the top of my lungs. My mom HATED him.

Who can recognize him????

My hero....

Thats to cool Jenna, I remember watching that show. Its funny because Saturday mornings were the best when it came to watching cartoons. I remember with each September there were new shows, some were take-offs of regular shows, like the Brady Bunch, The Jackson 5 :D Now there's nothing Saturday mornings (well not like it used to be thats for sure).

Does anyone remember the Groovy Ghoulies (sp?).... I'll try to find a picture... Ohh and Sigmond & The Sea Monster (the Kroft shows), the evil brothers Burp and Slurp LOL

Johnny Quest and Simba the Lion were two of my favorite cartoons. (Of course Bugs and that series always tops the very favs - PePe la Pew, the witch that always had the hairpins flying everywhere, the little martian guy...)

Speaking of martians, loved My Favorite Martian, Mr. Ed, I Dream of Jeannie...

And ZOTZ and PopRocks were hip waaay back then... ;D Purple Passion soda - yum... lol

        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
