Recommended Posts

Ok girls, Sorry, but I have been super busy and going crazy getting these girls ready for school. My baby girl is in prek and I am all alone!!!!!:cry I missed her today, it was so hard to be without my Dee!! She had so much fun at school! I asked her today if she missed me and she said "Yes Momma, I missed you but I didn't cry for you." It was so cute. I said baby Momma missed you and I cried for you and we gave each other a big hug. She is my little precious baby girl. Now all three of my precious little ones are off to school and going to get smart and take care of mama! :)

Ok I am sure you all are sick of me now so I am off of here!

awwe, I ^kinda^ know how you feel...

TODAY was our first day back - and my Anne's first day of BIG school kindergarten. She didnt want me to walk her in - only wanted big brother to drop her off at her door - then he goes on to his room.

So grown-up. independant. happy.

She even looked like an angel this morning.

where did the time go?

I just had her yesterday.

Back to kinda knowing how you feel...

I still have BeBe at home - he's 3.

Now, when HE starts BIG school, Im gonna be crying in my Soup for a week!

Although "they" (our elders) say that this is a fairly easy transition for us :rolleyes:.

When my kids were 5 & 7 it was the hardest day of my life sending them both off to school & being home alone. My 5 yr. old went to an all day kindergarten so that made it even worse!! I can feel those feelings all over again as I type this!!! :cry

But, lo & behold I found myself pregnant again & she is now a 2 yr. old. I am already dreading the day when I drop her off to kindergarten.

OK ladies, don't blink! Before you know it, they'll be going out on dates, married, and moving out! Of course, after surviving their teen years, you may be ready for them to leave! :rolleyes:

I know, it was easier today and each day will get easier. It was so hard yesterday though. I missed her. I missed her today too. And she was soo excited to see Mommy pull around the loop to pick her up. That is awesome to see too. Tomorrow is day three. <sigh> :rolleyes:

Well, I remember my first day of kindergarten, almost 20 something years ago. It was catholic school in NY. I remember the kids asking "Is That Your Grandma and Grandpa?". I literally died and never wanted to be seen with my parents again. My parents had grey hair and stretchy clothes and the old kids had 20 something moms. My mom was 40 when she had me, so this explains itself.

Sadly, the third anniversary of her journey to heaven is approaching. I miss her so much. My dad died 10 years ago.... Sorry for the sob story.

Chloe begins kindergarten on the 25th for a 1/2 day, Dh is beginning school with more pot holes in the way. Looks like CMS is getting my husband instead of gaston county. Were upset about this.

Chloe cannot wait to start school, her teacher sent her a post card introducing herself. I feel great about here starting school, just sad because it means she's growning up.

I'm excited about my transition. ??? of course it's not a full day at school. My daughter is (almost) 7 and starts 2nd grade, and my son is starting 3yo pre-school this year, so he'll be gone M-Th mornings...home at noon. Not too bad! I'm going to Curves on M and W!!!! Wow! I can't wait! Am I a bad Mom? LOL

Enjoy your babies while you can. My son moves out tomorrow he starts his first year of college on Monday. Its breaking my heart to see him pack his things. My daughter moved out two years ago starting her college education I talk to her everyday but still not the same as her being home. I miss her terribly still and I know I will miss my son just as much. Now its just going to be me and my DH again. I truly wish mine were back in Kindergarden again.

My daughter starts Prek at the magnet school on Sept 6th.

I'm happy that we dont have to pay daycare to the tune of $650 a month, but sad that she is starting "big school"

I guess I'll never be satisfied.

      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. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      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. 💗

        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. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!
