My son is in the Navy stationed in Hawaii. I was thin until he was about 9 (when I had his little brother). My older son tells our youngest son that he never got to know "Hot Mom".

Well, my son doesn't know i'm having surgery so the first thing i'm going to do is fly to Hawaii and surprise my Navy Sailor by exiting the plane as "Hot Mom" again... It will be the best present he could ever ask for.

Then we will both cry!

I haven't been sleeved yet (2/8), but I've started a little list already. The first thing on it is visiting King Spa in Dallas. It's a Korean Spa and a couple treatments/areas require that you be completely nude.

Ain't no way I could do that now. Even though I have heard that nobody cares, but I do.

Also on my list, Fencing, Bellydancing, doing some 5ks, and horseback riding.

I am saving up to get laser hair removal so that I never have to shave my legs again :) I mostly hide my legs now... but I live in FL and come summertime (okay, really its like spring, summer and fall) it would be awesome to just throw on the shorts or the bathing suit and not have to worry about shaving :) The second thing I am going to do is a photo shoot with my little sister (she is 5 now). I can't wait to make her proud and be a better role model for her. Thanks for starting this post, I love reading about everyones "rewards" :)

I am only part way to goal but I believe we should use the good towels, the good china, wear the diamond earrings with jeans, Celebrate life now. so I bought myself some black pearl earrings to Celebrate my 35# off and all the victories and the survival of bad things so far, and my 65th birthday coming up. so there will be new celebrations when I make goal but I feel so amazed and grateful. maybe I will get Lipo and get rid of the fat knees I have had since age 14 even at 112#. maybe I will retire and say the hell with sutter health. who knows. I bet I cry too and step on the scale about 9 times. I am giving myself a year to get there, only 56# to go, sleeved in may. maybe I will go to scotland or tahiti or paris or venice or all of them. I will definitely ask a man out and I wont wait till then if I see someone wonderful. love sara

I want to do so many things! My short list is to make my daughter mad by trying on and fitting into all of her clothes (she'd be happy for the weight loss but not me wearing her clothes and I keep threatening to do it when I get smaller), fit comfortably into an airplane seat, buy knee high boots because my calves can fit, wear shorts and run!!

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
