  1. Not even for a second! I just turned 39... in my teens I weighed 200 - 220 lbs. In my 20's (except for 2 years when I went to 180 lbs) I weighed 220 - 240 lbs. In my 30's I weigh 230 - 260 lbs. Despite dieting. Despite exercise. Despite portion control. I don't plan on weighing 260 - 300 lbs in my 40's or 50's. I want this surgery tomorrow!
  2. YES! This, absolutely. People who are overweight have a much stronger opinion. Like "That's a bit drastic, "Oh I wouldn't go through all of that!", "Well... if that's what you want to do..." as if none of us have ever struggled with weight loss before. I have only just told people so I have another 5 weeks of boring judgemental jealous jabs about it. Nothing is stopping them from having the surgery! I just got fed up before they did! I wonder what nasty comments they will come up with once the weight starts dropping off.
  3. So many of us.... each day gets us closer and closer! I just stocked up on muscle milk and zero calorie powerade as they were both on sale. I hate the waiting game! I am ready to go tomorrow!! Come on 29th...
  4. Me too! I have mine on the 29th of Feb. Who is doing yours? Dr Ramos Kelly is doing mine.
  5. Yes this is why I thought... may as well use the special day for my special day! Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  6. Oooo...give em my phone number....as long as they have a car to drive themselves home when I'm done with them.Lol! Sorry a bit late now. That was a few years ago and not sure how I'd explain to my husband I am back on dating sites to get the details of 20 year olds!
  7. Oh yeah I got a bunch of losers. A LOT of 18 - 20 yr old boys wanted a cougar. No thanks!
  8. I met my husband on OKC so there are a few diamonds in the rough
  9. I don't know anything about them just all the adds that pop up and thinking it's not the most eye catching name they could have chosen lol... I have muscle milk which is crazily sweet but just dilute it with unsweetened almond milk. Awesome! I bet you're excited
  10. No problems. So exciting! Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  11. For 29th?? Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  12. Lots of support here! So excited... I will be more nervous as the day arrives but right now I am so happy I am changing my life!
  13. Yeah I put it in a day countdown in my phone app and it was in days and it seemed so much closer! Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  14. I have told a few people but I am not wanting to lie so if anyone asks me why I am suddenly 80 - 100 lbs lighter within a year... I don't know that I will be able to lie to them. Exercise and healthy eating doesn't really cut it! Maybe by then I won't care who knows. But I would rather them not judge me and then watch me every time they see me... hard to know what the best path to take is! Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  15. Feb 29th for me! Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  16. Awesome! 39 days and counting! Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk
  17. February 29th! I figured I would book it on a special day
  18. Hey is there anyone getting their VSG around the end of February? Would love to chat with people who will be post op at the same time.
  19. Thanks! Good luck for Friday! Make sure you update post op
  20. No but I just got my date yesterday and will be having surgery 29th Feb! It's so exciting when you finally have that official countdown.
  21. Thanks! How are you feeling? What date is yours?
  22. Officially booked in for 29th February! I thought if I am getting it done at the end of February on a leap year, I should use it wisely. The countdown is on! 5 weeks and 6 days!
  23. Yes I have watched all of her videos. And so many others on youtube. I've just started doing a vlog as well just in case anyone wants to watch mine. I know how inspired I have been by watching everyone!
