Kat-good to see you...even if it was a quick drive by posting! lol Miss ya girl! Drama? On another thread? I only post here, how is that possible? lol (JOKE) :thumbup:

Suzanne-omg...sounds like alot of hours you are going to be getting! We will be thinking about ya! Post when you can!

Hi JollyGreen....I see you there! :thumbup:

Hi Tracy - It took me 6 weeks before I could actually sleep! No job, they knew I wanted to be out in the field and not in the office

Hey Ladies.

Home for about an hour before we have to head off to the hospital. I have a load of laundry going and I fixed a quick lunch for us.

Kat, good to see you stop by. I'm sorry we didn't get to finish our conversation last night. I hope your friend will be ok. I will say a prayer for her. I hope we see you a little bit more here.

See ya all tonight after I get home.

Hi Suzanne - How was your shift at the hospital. I did laundry today too... Yuck! Nothing really fits me so time to send out some stuff so there are piles everywhere.

I haven't been to the gym all week, I've been so darn sick. Hopefully next week will be better

I'm sorry you are sick, hope you feel better soon, glad you stopped in to let us know

You can post here any time you want :) We would love to have you here! :thumbdown:

My name is Cindy. I have lived in Louisiana my whole life.

Yeah, it is getting nasty in there and it is just not good. I REALLY don't like it. So, I won't post there anymore until it calms down. Too much poison right now.:thumbup:

Hey Peeps.

Home from the hospital. We were really busy tonight. I ran into an old friend while I was there. It was good seeing her.

Hi Cindy, you are welcome here anytime you want. The more the merrier.

I actually have tomorrow off, so that means a lot of running around. We haven't been able to get the pool closed up yet, so we are going to work on that this weekend. My nephew is going to come over and help. The cover is huge and we can always use an extra hand.

Off to go get caught up on DWTS. See ya soon.

Ahhhh...My first hot chocolate of the season. I love this time of year.

I need to find my journal that I was using last spring and see if that will get me started again. I've never really been any good at journaling, in fact I hate doing it. I didn't do it when I was at WW, but I still lost. But I need to do something to see if I can get my eating under control. I just feel this need to push it. I need to get my head back in this and when I get that signal that I'm starting to get full that I need to stop. No more bites or licks. Why can't I get that back into my head, it's so frustrating.

Have a great day and I'll check in soon.

There is something to Journalling...when my DH (dear husband) lost most of his weight... I kept a precise account of everything that went into his mouth...:cursing: :cursing: But I threw it out and now wished I had saved it because it would help him to see how wonderful he had been :thumbup:

My nutritionist has asked me to keep a journal and I am trying to figure out the layout for it :thumbdown:

I :thumbup: am trying to finish an afgan by tomorrow so I can wash and dry it on Saturday when I give it as a present :cursing:

Does anyone have a great idea for the journal layout...I used to use the notebook that the DS (dear son) did not use at school :cursing::mad2: I purchased a pretty book to use at Walgreens clearance for a dollar.... it can be caried in the purse :thumbup:

:scared2::tt2::scared2::tt2::cursing: to those who think I will not succeed :):sneaky::cursing:

Hi Cindy! So we can be the shelter for the evacuees :cursing:. And now if you leave us we know where to find you! :)

Hi Shalee! It is really sad that things like that happen. Jst kick back with us for a while and hang out. :thumbup:

Ever have coffee spew from your nose? I just did! LMAO! :scared2: Thanks, I needed that! :thumbup:

I have been a fan of the Osbournes for years! To see them like that makes me smile :cursing:

I know what you mean! I feel like a 'cutter'...you know, those people that cut themselves because they say it makes them feel better by mutilating themselves. That is exactly the same thing I feel. food is my knife. :thumbdown:

Jen-you with us yet? yoohooo...

Good morning all....I wish I could rename this thread to something like Shelter for Evacs...I guess homeless might sound a bit harsh.

You know, I tossed and turned last night. I was up watching all the weight loss surgery shows on TV and it reminded me of how fortunate I am. There are so many people that wish they had this surgery and can not get it and here I am...not using it the way it should be used. I am ashamed of myself. So today I vow to use my band and follow the rules...in honor of those who wish they could have one.

Have a great day ladies!

My name is :thumbup: Laura :cursing:

You can call me Laura or Jolly

I have the name Jollygreen because decades ago... in elementary school everyone called me that

because I was 6 feet tall (my height in 6 th grade)... and thin... went to doctors to gain (but could not)

:scared2::wub: The kids used to sing the Green Giant commercial to me :cursing: :cursing: which I hated :thumbup:

Now that I am older and wiser :cursing::cursing: I think that the name is funny but not at 12 :) :cursing:

Good Morning all

glad to see everyone here today!

I was going to post this morning but running late

hi Laura -

I use my fitness pal or daily plate is another good one, both online and both track all nutrition value, I have only been getting 700 cals so I'm trying to up that, but I love it because I can put my exercise in and it tracks everything, next week I print out my journal pages and take them to my nutritionist.

I need to be accountable... anyone up for a challange to lose 10lbs by Halloween????? Weigh in here once a week? Friday mornings before the weekend so we can allow ourselves a bad day?

Any takers?

Well, finishing my Breakfast and heading to the gym.

xoxoxo

be back

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        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
