    thisisthenewme got a reaction from lelewatson in When do you delete your online dating profile?   
    You can hide your profile so ppl can't see it and message you. That way you can focus on her without distraction.
    But, I think, if you like her and you want to see where it goes, you don't need the profile anymore, right? If it doesn't work out, just make a new one.
    I met my husband online and after we agreed to focus on each other, we both agreed to delete our profiles 4 years together this January!

    If your friends are trying to rattle your confidence, tell them to shaake their rattler tails in another direction. You expect them to be encouraging and happy for you.
    "I just keeping telling myself that I am going to do amazing. I have no choice!!..."
    Why stomp on your own power? You most certainly do have a choice, which is what power rests on. In this instance you're choosing to do and be amazing. Get it? Surgery and losing weight are what you'll be doing; they aren't things that will be happening to you. No time for passivity.

    Just wanted to share this amazing bottle with everyone. It's called a Blender Bottle (bought at GNC). Mixes Protein to just the right constancy with no foam like an electric blender produces. I love it!! The special whisk ball does all the work. Great for at work :-)

    Hi Ladies, I'm in Peterborough and having surgery in Toronto. I've completed all the required appointments and meet the surgeon tomorrow to get my surgery date!!! I'm very nervous because this will actually be a reversion surgery. I paid out of pocket in 2011 for a lap band. Did really well, then it slipped out of position while I was pregnant in 2014 and by then the company had went bankrupt and I had no where to go. Since slipped band, pregnancy and looking after an infant I've gain all the weight back (80lbs). Will let you know how it goes tomorrow. Also looking for ppl to keep in touch with during this process.

    Competition is something I do at work.....its part of the culture there.
    I'm glad as hell I am not having to compete in my off time.
    Sounds too much like those stupid bachelor or bachelorette shows.

    thisisthenewme reacted to cgarrido1 in 1 year later   
    One year ago today I made the biggest decision of my life thus far. There are only a handful of people that knew and to this day, only close friends and family. I made the decision to get healthy for not only myself but for my future husband, our future children and our overall life together. I was a serious yo yo dieter, constantly up and down with my weight. So in August of 2015, after months of research and doctors appointments, I had gastric sleeve surgery. To this day, I haven't told many people out of fear of judgement, embarrassment and being told "why didn't you just eat right and exercise like everyone else". Well, I had and couldn't lose the weight. So no, this most certainly was not the easy way out, it was by far the hardest thing I've ever done.
    Happy to say as of today, one year ago I started my journey at 234 lbs and today I weigh in at 145 lbs for a weight loss total of 90 lbs and I've never felt better, inside and out. I'm finally excited to see myself in my wedding dress in 2 weeks.

    OK. I am not great at multi-tasking. I am going to delete my POF profile and hope for the best. Wish me luck.

    Maybe you could cook meals now and put in freezer bags for them. Using the slow cooker is a great way to make large quanities. It did that due to commuting when my kids were young. It worked really well. Just label each bag with the food name and date. Good luck

    I am a little worried about the pre and post op liquid phases. I know my hubby can fend for himself, but my 2 year old needs heathy meals prepared and my hubby can only cook the following: fried eggs, grilled cheese and chicken nugget. Oh and KD. I can't have my son living off that, but I'd rather not have to be cooking during this stage.
    However, I'll just have to suck it up!! It's not forever
