  1. To day is the day. Change should be my middle name, I have had to transform myself mentally on a consistent basis as long as I can remember. I am grateful for the strength I have been given to endure it all, with today being no exception. The serenity prayer comes to mind which is one of those prayers I have used and loved. Today I pray for peace and comfort for me and for all who support me.

    Day 1 After Sleeve Sx

    I am glad to hear you doing well and I am wondering to how I am going to feel today after my surgery. I hope to not regret my decision. I will take your words and use them today as I go under.
  3. All I have to say is Magnesium Citrate is grossssssssssss!

  4. I wish everyone a Happy New year full of growth, peace, and happiness. This past year for me was full of change and I am sure 2012 will be to. I hope to meet every change with an open mind and heart.

  5. Haven’t spent much time on fb in the past few day , every one has been SICK and I am never going to forget this Christmas. Just wanted to check out what other fb friends were doing on their Christmas break and it looks like more fun than I had. The best part is that I got to spend time with my family that included my mom and brother. Family is so very important no matter how few you have.

  6. I start my two week liquid fast tomorrow and the big day is Jan 5th. I think I am ready however I am starting to get nervous. I think I am going to document this journey . I am looking forward to the deep sleep and a day or two of down time.

  7. I am needing some help from my fb friends. I am trying to gather up information on Not for profit organization and Grants. I have a vision and I need a village to help me pull it off. Message me if you can help with the information.

  8. Today is the DAY! THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL! What a ride it has been however I should have know it would be. The girls were all over me yesterday asking me what they are going to do when I leave. I know it sound like they are just trying to build up my ego but they are serious. The nail students will not have a teacher and the only other teacher is in charge of all of them and she just got her teacher licenses and has never worked out in the field. I do feel for the instructor she has a great...

  9. I made over 40 treat bags tonight for the kids, they both have their parties tomorrow. I have two more days left in school. I just cant wait until I am a freed lady. Two of the girls that I have been working with in the nail department ask me if I would come back to help, that so broke my heart. I have enjoyed meeting the students and the whole processed has been good.

  10. Today is the Maryville parade and Jorja Kate is going to riding with her dance team for the first time. I will be at work but my husband and my mom and Jorja Kates two aunts and brother will be there to see her. I sure do hope she makes it all the way through. This is a big task for my four year old and I am sorry I am going to miss it.

  11. Getting closer to the end! Yea!

  12. The obvious is now obvious to me.

  13. Wow what a lesson in perseverance! I am have a bit of a time with My insurance CO who I was told I could do the three month plan that has turned into a five month plan and my end up being a six month plan at this point. They pulled the old we changed the requirement for the three month plan on me when turning in the chart. I still am waiting on a date and was hoping it would be by the end of the year as I had planed due to my deductible being paid for this year. I have to say you do have me beat in the crazy things that can happen. How ever and for what ever the reason is , I am sure you will look back after it is all done and say , whoo so glad it happened the way it did. Life tends to throw us elbows and knees and all for good in the end. Hang in there!
  14. I wish I had words of wisdom but right now I am doing the same thing. I was hoping to have a surgery date before the end of the year but my insurance and the DR. office are not following throng with what they need to do so that I can have that date. I am so frustrated with the whole process and now that it looks like it is going to be well I just don’t know when I am wanting to eat more. So I hope to do what you are trying to do and buckle down now. I wish for you the best and success.

    24 Hours Post-op

    Thank you for posting and I hope to be sleeved before the end of the year. Keep us posted on your journey.
  16. I am still waiting for approval but want to buy a juicer and would like to know what type of juicer is the best. I want to start juicing now but do have some issues with cucumber and would I to would like some recipes for the mild tasting blends. I need to start losing the 12 pounds before surgery but have not been very motivated. I do worry about what it mesa that I am waiting until the very last min to start the weight loss. I so need this sleeve and I truly want to be healthy and happy during this process and beyond.
  17. I am the one who believes that everything works out the way it is supposed to, that it is to benefit all involved not just one. I am finding it hard to believe in this thinking today. I didn’t get what I wanted and now I have to keep pressing on to complete the task at hand , follow through till the end even thought I am not sure what is going to be my carrot now. It falls back to faith again, faith in me and my abilities , faith in God and faith in the unknown.

    Waiting for approval

    I to am waiting for my surgery date and am 5’2 and weigh 240 and I am terrified of surgery. I had a doctor ask me if I really was large enough to have the surgery. Let me tell you YES and I have hb, bad knees, bad back, bad ankles and am only 43 and I have a four year old along with a eight year old. I want to be around to watch them grow and to be able to run with them. I wish you the best.
  19. Yes I do to think of all we will be giving up and I am in the mode of “ I better eat this now because I will not be able to soon. I am so tired of food and of feeling bad. I pray that this surgery really make a difference i my life. I believe it will however it is hard for me to imagine right now.
