Hi all ! I'm being sleeved August 8th, 2012 by Dr Morris Washington in Myrtle Beach SC. Is there any other august sleevers on here?

I'm 27 (almost) ---about 100-130 to lose.

I have some chia seeds but they are an odd texture for me. I am not usually a texture weirdo but they get stuck on my tongue and feel like little slimy balls. I am thinking maybe a few months out, I could add them to puddings but I do not like the texture in my shake. My friend is a runner and he said they add them to water, let them swell up and drink the stuff right before they run for energy. I bought them and tried, I will try again a few months from now.

My surgeons office called...I was approved by my insurance company! Yay!!!!!!!! Now it feels real, I'm getting sleeved on the 22nd. I'm doing my happy dance!

Congrats minniemouse67!!

Hey my sister......I was out today and read this in the morning.....was in a huge hurry to get home so I could message......I am about to tip my hat and I am hoping I will not be out of place......but I know a thing or two about dreams,.....at least in that is the claim........typically a dream of death is a fear of the change you are about to undergo.....letting go of the old and becoming a new person.........it is usually the fear of the ending of something but in your case....I think it is the fear of not changing....the fear that you Re going through all of this and it doesn't work........but and this is where I tip my hat... I have been known by a few hundred thousand people to be reasonably accurate.........grin.....you are going to do great sweetheart.....the weight is coming off and you are goi g to feel and be in a great place in your life.......your subconscious knows you are in for a lot of changes andi is just making room......suggestion.....get some smokey quartz angel....you feel people and food has been a vice for you.....have smokey quartz with you and things with calm down......hugs.....

Seems like everyone is getting some good exercise in, I have got to start working on that next...I have pretty bad messed up back and a leg....its pretty painful to do much and I have been doing good to walk outside and around the house twice maybe amounting to 10 min, but I do need to step it up in the exercise department. what does everyone do for exercise, exspecially at the heavier weights where just moving your body is a chore?

I know what you mean Joyce, my daughter doesn't like them either. She feels like they get stuck in her teeth. I like them because they remind me of tapioca, and I love tapioca. I think it is just a taste/texture thing. Everyone's got their preferences.

Using a pool for walking Water jogging and even water weights could help because it doesn't hurt???? Just a though

wish we had a pool here the closest is 40 miles away, so thats a hard one, dont even have a decent gym, well got one a guy put in a basement that doesnt seem safe to me, I do have some equipment and gonna try to start adding something in even if it is like 10 min at a time

I am in my day 2 of the liquid diet as well. That's what I'm focusing on to, the light at the end of the tunnel. My day is Aug 6th. It's so exciting, but I'm kind of a nervous wreck at the same time.
