    Default My life changing adventure

    Hi everyone, my name is Jan I just turned 60 and I've finally taken the plunge after years of wanting a new healthy body.
    My hubby Barry and I are travelling around Australia in our caravan, we started nearly 3 years ago to do a lap and discovered there is too much to see and we are not in a hurry so we have no plans to go home yet.
    LIVING THE DREAM

    I started on my pre op diet 3 days ago and have my surgery booked for 25th August 2017 and I feel excited,thankful, happy, positive and nervous.
    I'm looking forward to being the healthy person I want to be!
    I'm nervous about giving up food, I LOVE FOOD lol 😂
    I'm positive about making changes in in my eating habits and discovering new recipes.
    I'm starting to visualise the new me!
    I can't wait to start on my new adventure.

    Welcome Jan! I just got sleeved on August 4th and I am doing well! I say I gave this present to myself for my 55th birthday which was July 23rd. I decided to end my love affair with food because it was literally killing me. I now have the mindset that no food tastes better than being healthy and active. I will now use food to only fuel my body, not because it tastes good. I am a mother to 5 grown children and now it is time to take care of ME! Wishing every success and good thing on your journey of weight loss! ��

    Welcome Jan!! How exciting to be travelling around Australia with your hubby! I used to love food, too. Now I just love it in much smaller quantities.

    Hi Jan!
    Here another relatively new sleever, living the dream!
    We travel through Europe and North Africa in our motorhome.
    The more weight I loose, the more room I have in my tiny clothing cupboards, huge benefit!
    English is not my first language anymore, so I may and do make mistakes in my spelling, or say things oddly. Please ask me, if you want any clarifications.

    Hi Mary that's an awesome weight loss so far. I love your mantra
    " No food tastes better than being health and active. I will only use food to fuel my body"
    do you mind if I use it too?
    We have 2 grown sons and 5 grandchildren the oldest one just turned 16.
    If you want a friend to go through this journey with please PM me.
    I love your attitude Mary and I don't need to wish you every success because you are on the right path with a fabulous mind set ��

    Hi Dutch Sleeve,
    Isn't it an amazing lifestyle we have travelling with no restrictions Living The Dream.
    It's amazing to think that The whole of Europe fits inside Australia eh! I liken our travels to travelling through Europe lol.
