My parents were big into the love beyond your means craze of the 80's and 90's. I watched things fall apart financially for them and swore I wouldn't let that happen to me. I got a job when I turned 14- worked almost full time and had enough cash to get a 'typical' first car. My grandpa (a product of the greatest generation and the depression) was so proud of me for saving my money he put the rest of the money down to buy me a new version of the car I was looking at. I 'paid myself' a car payment every month and at 22 bought another car- cash. I'm still driving that car and I will admit it's not the coolest or most functional car at this point as far as room goes- I'm driving it until it dies :). My ex was another live above your means type and ultimately it was one of the main issues that started the road to divorce with us. Now- fiancé and I are in a position where we need more space house wise- we have 3 kids and a German shepherd living in an awkwardly laid out 1500 sq foot house. So- we are looking at an upgrade and because we see eye to eye financially- we are able to put down a pretty substantial down payment and will actually be saving quite a bit of money every month all while living in a much larger home. And we can start planning out next kiddo.

Sorry- my rant is over. So no- I'm not some crazy person that doesn't drive or lives in my car. I just didn't want to let myself go crazy and wind up in the same position as my parents. I figure the generation before my parents knew a thing or two back then :)

I was debt free until my sleeve. We had the cash to pay for it out of pocket but we also didn't want to be screwed if our taxes were higher than our estimate so we took out a no interest loan for half the cost. Debt free was the best feeling in the world until the weight started dropping. Totally worth it!

That's so great! My fiancé says he can't wait to pick me up. He's strong as an ox and could do it now- but I refuse to let him try. I'm hoping by this summer to be at a point I would let him try :)

I'm 50 and ...

- never lived a day without God's love surrounding me (even when I didn't recognize it)

- never gave up hope that my life has purpose and meaning (even on the roughest days - and there were many)

- never stopped praying for my husband (whom I've yet to meet - well, unless I know him and don't know it yet!)

- never lived without an amazing animal in my life (right now it's Howard the cat and Riley the corgi)

- never enjoyed my body, flexibility, energy, health more than I am now

(ok, ok - I've never been waxed either)

My heart goes out to you! Please know that when you feel the beauty of your outerself emerge, your inner beauty that was always there - comes through even stronger....this in and of itself will give you the strength to say no when you know you should because you deserve so much more! You will have your dreams come true. God is good and He loves you - we do too!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
