Okay Okay I know tht I am posting way late for his thread, but I am expeciialy down. Have no problem

posing for nude pics, done a little posing in college, personally of course. Anyhoo. I want to be in the pic too for June as my birthday is June 6th. What I was thinking was that we could have group photos ( I already know that this has been discussed) with people wearing what the month represents from where they are from, or to them. Like somebody from may can be wearing a ky derby hat from ky, or sitting on a horse, someone frm new york can have the staue of liberty crown, and torch etc.

I WANT IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey folks,

What is going on with the calender planning? Christina did you ever look at the link about the Long Tom Grange Calender? I thought it had some awesome ideas for backgrounds and poses. I was just thinking maybe we should do a smaller before pic set in the large frame. That way people know what we've accomplished. I don't know just tossing out an idea... I would sure love to use that photographer that did those Long Tom shots.

My mom went in to have her blood pressure checked yesterday and it was way too high. The bottom number was 100! She has been overweight since having children, so for the last 25 years or so. She is taller than I am and I am just now fitting into her clothes but it was definitely a wake up call that she needs to do something. She would love to get the band but our insurance won't cover it and she doesn't have a wonderful father in law that would pay for it. I think she has kind of "thrown in the towel" this past winter in regards to dieting which is what I did before getting my band. She sees me all the time and is thrilled with my progress but I sure wish I could help her. When we do the calender I think we should make a website for it and post it on every band support group out there. The Long Tom group pulled in something like $200,000 the first year. Way beyond their expectations. Lets aim high girls! Teresa

      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!

      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!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
