INQUIRING MINDS WANNA KNOW
so the board seems to have stalled a bit... HOW IS EVERYONE DOING?? come on... good stuff.. bad stuff.. progress set backs... complaints.. etc...
as for me... I kinda had a set back... i forgot to journal a few weeks back...and before i knew it .. 15 days had passed.... Since i am in the Emotional Eatters group... i weight myself weekly. the first week the scale said i was up .9 of a pound... then last week... it said i gained 5.7 .. thats almost 7 pounds.. UGHG.. what was i thinking... i got a new journal.. cause i dont want to take the OLD ONE.. with 15 blank pages in to the clinc when i go.. and have since started agian writing everything agian. I feel like i am back at square ONE ... how can i do that .. i was down 17 before.. now only 10. WHY DO I DO THIS. I do know that the last few weeks i was stressed about money.. as hubby is on EI going back to school,. so money has hard, went from 1000 every week to 800 every two weeks. but we got it all taken care of and things are good now. im just going to suck it up... and do my best from today on... OH YEAH.. and i have like 15 gray hairs... where did they come from?? i know it comes with age.. but im only turning 32 next next week.. not ** lol.
on a good note..
i went to a drop in belly dancing class tonight.. and OMG i had so much fun.. i was sweating within the first 10 min. There were a few things i couldnt do.. BUT.. i just modified it so i could do SOMETHING. Im getting some highlights and a cut tomorrow.. and drinks with a friend on the weekend.

Hey Sarah,
Don't worry about the grey hair, at least you're only now gettign them. I've had them since I've been 16.
I hear ya girl when it comes to the money suitation. I almost wasn't able to make my last appointment due to scheduling and financies. Suck sometimes but we always make it through.
When I went back home on holidays I gained 7 pounds also and it was so stupid of me to let myself sabotage me but i've managed to get that 7 off and 3.4 more. Now i just need to stay on trac****il my surgery. Dr Menezes was very firm that I have to be down, he doesn't care how much as long as it's a decrease. Well god help me if I have to duct tape my mouth I will be down.
Hope you like the highlight and enjoy the you time.

Gall Bladder surgery April 12,2012
You can either believe it will happen.....or believe it won't. Both are self fulfilled prophesies. For Me it has happened. My Surgery was September 21/2010
Everything for me is going alright. I have dropped one more size in the last 3 weeks so now I'm down to a 16. I have only a few things that fit so I'll have to be going to a second hand store very soon to get myself something to wear. I'm 10 lbs away from onederland! I'm hoping to hit it by the end of June. My gift to myself for reaching that milestone is a pedicure! I can't wait for that and neither can my toes lol.
I meet with my personal trainer on Friday to start working on building some muscle, I'm looking forward to that. She and I get along very well and she knows that I had surgery so she's tailoring a program just for me.
I'm going through a lot of emotional upheaval right now, trying to figure out my place in the world (so to speak). It's been a rough go for a while, you get used to people treating you a certain way and then all of a sudden things change and I don't know how to react to it. I'm finding that it's even changing my relationship with my hubby and I didn't think that would happen. I might call the clinic and maybe go talk to someone about it.
Happy Birthday for next week, mine is next week as well and I'll be turning 31!

Hello! I am doing okay but still waiting, waiting for a surgery date. I was approved by the surgeon at the end of April... and the booking lady just called to say that they won't have a free spot until November. So needless to say, pretty disheartened as they had assured me it would be done in June.
My work schedule is incredibly busy in the fall as well. Oh well. I suppose it will come soon enough.
In the mean time, I need to keep on track and focused, and keep motivated which is the hardest part with the delay. ~mtrai

Surgery VSG Oct.8 2010. 23pds lost pre-op. I am 5'6" tall. Feeling amazing!
Holy Crap, seriously November.
I was approved on June 7th and was told by Dr. Menezes it could be anywhere from 8 days to 4 months. If your looking at November I'll probably be waiting till the New year. Frig that makes me sad. I feel the longer I have to wait to get the surgery that I'm risking blowing my program. I know its suppose to be a life change but I have been on so many diets and programs in the past and all of a sudden I fall of the wagon and I don't want this to happen to me this time.
I think we both need to say nightly prayer that we'll get in quicker. Maybe with summer some people might not be able to accept their surgery dates and it'll move us up the line. Anything is possible right.

hey... been feeling very low these past few days... have great days but then come home and am not motivated as the enviroment is so negative.. watched losing it with jillian last night and was very discouraged all day, as the lady lost 74 lbs in 8 weeks and i am just where i am... i can't seem to stop eating once my stomach has emptied... always seem to want to eat as soon as i am able... it like i don't want change when i waited so long for change to come... i also am the worst isolator ther is and havent got a soul to talk to on the phone to tell my feelings too... so not a good day...so goodnight... tammy
kindness is the nicest thing....
I'm having my ups & downs and hit a wall in my weightloss it seems. The last week has been off for
me & it's frustrating. I was told I'd not be under the knife til at least September & I'm happy with that just wish I was going to appts from now til then. I have my 2nd pre-op class on Tuesday and then nothing before pre-admission. Guess I just worry about getting sidetracked .
Hugs to everyone and try to not stress. That does nothing healthy for the body and our weightloss!!

Kim,
When you go in for your next class talk the desk staff about having a follow up with your nurse and nut. I like dealing with the one Kim, she so awesome and well i just like her.
My sister was approved just after you and she has a follow up in July and after my approval the surgeon said he thought it was a good idea for me to still have a follow up with at least the nut seeing as surgery could be as far as 4 months out. I have my follow up the end of July as well and if they don't recommend a follow up then I'll b easking for me. It'll definitely keep you/us more focus on the winning outcome.
