Hi Chevy and welcome ! I'm a newbie pre-op. So how are you feeling ? liquids going ok ? Never give up ╰☆╮

Ok, soooo I took mslady's advice and started yesterday doing three reps of ten with the dumb bar, its only 5 pounds, but its a start right ? And today I'm going to repeat it and I'm going to walk for 5 minutes. I know that sounds so lame, but I gotta start somewhere. I hope your all having a good day !! Never give up ╰☆╮

Its so nice to meet fellow veggies ! I love Edamame, I haven't had it in a long time. I had no idea it was so high in Protein. I'm going to stock up ! Yum ! It will be great for night time snacking. I LOVE smart ground. I use it all the time and lots of black Beans too. I'm definitly going to check out that blog too. Thank you all for the great ideas ! Never give up ╰☆╮

I've always wanted my tongue pierced, but I'm a big chicken. I used to have a labret, but when I had a c-section 8 years ago they made me take it out and 4 days later it closed. Now I'm scared to redo it because of the scar tissue. Wow what a big baby huh ?? LOL Never give up ╰☆╮

Hi, I just found this app last night. I really like how everyone is so supportive. I have been on my weight loss journey for 1 year now. My pre-op weight is supposed to be 310, I am currently at 323. I am struggling so bad. I have made some very big positive changes this year. I am now a vegetarian.I gave up Fast/Junk food. I stopped drinking soda. I however do not seem to be doing so well with the whole exercise thing. My body hurts so bad, I can walk 2 or 3 minutes and I can barely stand. My back and knees ache like crazy. I feel like I have stopped trying, I've lost my Ooomph ! Last dec. I actually made my pre-op weight, then I freaked and started thinking omg I can't eat this ever again, I have to do this and take that and I got overwhelmed and gained back 15 pounds in 3 weeks. Uggg I know...so bad. I just really need to meet some people who can relate and be supportive. I want to meet new friends to share, learn and grow with. A little about me: I'm 44, married 22 years, I have 1 daughter, who is on the Autism spectrum, she is 8. I am a stay at home mommy and we are homeschooling her. We eat 85% organic. We are vegetarians. I live in California by the ocean. I belong to Kaiser Permanente, which is where my surgery will be. Have a great day ! .☆ºbLeSsInGs 2uº☆.
