I had the gastric bypass done 22 years ago. I don't regret at all. I have lost almost 175 lbs. The things you say are silly are not. I remember the first time I was able to cross my legs I cried. The little things that people take for granted are huge to people who are so desperately trying to loose weight. If you have any questions I am here for you. Congratulations on taking a huge step to becoming a new you.
I had mine in 2017, and I am down 135 pounds. The leg-crossing was a revelation for me! I have been big my whole life and never understood why people say like that because it was so uncomfortable. Now, I sit like that all the time!! 🎉 Celebrate every small accomplishment no matter how "silly" you feel like they are. It is a journey, and every step is important (even when they seem to be in the wrong way). ❤❤❤
You’re right! You don’t have to justify yourself to anyone! Anyone who thinks they need your justification doesn’t understand what it is you’re about to do. It’s not easy, a very brave choice! I wish good things for you! I hope all of your hard work brings you all the changes you’re hoping for! 😊
Becky I had the Gastric bypass surgery about 2 to 3 years ago. It was the best thing I could have ever done for me!! It is really a life changing experience. If you have any questions Im here for you. My Name is Diamond! Your awesome so glad your back. Miss you loads!
hi becky its tania from Australia, so glad your back, i also got the faded chronicle in the sage green cover, when I 1st got it had no idea how to use it ha-ha, but after watching you go thru it with your thoughts, it's become more clearer for me, looking forward to many more of your video's cheers tania
I prefer the dailies not being dated as well. Grew up with 12 hour clock but I can use the 24 hour clock, that’s what we use at the hospital as well. Good to hear your voice, I’ve had a bit of a rough patch the last couple of months not from planning though at least not as much but trying to get back in the swing of things
Because of you, I WAS going to get the PaperTess planner. But when Faded Chronicle came out with hers, I decided to go for it. It is my first undated planner, but the functionality of the FC one really called to me. My Hobonichi Weeks for 2025 may not make the cut. After all the hub-bub about the paper, I did a test. HALF of my fountain pens are bleeding, not ghosting, full on bleeding through to the other side. Seems like there are allll kinds of issues with the cream Hobonichis, so the five-year and weeks are causing an uprising! I may go for a B6 slim and ditch the weeks size entirely. I almost can't believe it, I have been a diehard weeks user for seven years 😭
My mother in law had it done... It does change your tummy BUT you have to make sure you're eating right and staying active for the weight to stay off because if not then your stomach just expands again! Im excited for you... Its life changing!!! I cant wait to see what amazing positive changes come your way! Im also excited you are using the same sizes as me for next year. TN is my EDC, faith and health (im on a journey to losing 50+ lbs) so im definitely excited to see how you get everything set up!
Becky, focusing on yourself is important. Glad to see you back and looking forward to your journey. Your health matters both mentally and physically. I hope you are able to achieve your goals and are able to be there for your kids. The time doesn’t stop. You sound better and happier. Prayers that your surgery goes well :)
I am the exactly the same moved from hobonichi to sterling ink. Some people are saying that the hobonichi this year is ghosting a lot. I don’t know if it is a bad batch. Great to have you back Hope surgery goes well ❤
Really missed your videos good to see you back 😊 I have the sterling ink standard compact for next year, and my a5 is the rosy life planner next year its beautiful ❤ you have given me some ideas on what to use them for next year 😊
I'm so happy to see you again! I had a gastric bypass on March of '23, and it is life changing. I found the behavioral therapist that was part of my process to be helpful for unpacking my relationship to food, which is still a bit terrible, if I'm being honest. I'm now able to do 5 mile hikes and improving monthly. You will get there! It is life changing and it is tricky if you are the main meal preparer for you family because they will eat differently than you (more protein, veggies and as few carbs as you can) and you may end up cooking a meal for them and something a bit different for yourself for a while, but it is totally worth it. I hope the surgery goes smoothly and your recovery is untroubled!
So glad to see you back! I’m watching while we are riding out this very stong hurricane Milton here in Florida! And doing some journaling while I watch! Thanks for sharing big hugs hun
Have missed your videos, so nice to see you return with a haul aswell......x if you were pondering vlogging your gastric journey am sure am not the only one who would love to hear about your progress...pls excuse if that is too personal, but am pondering it too hence my thought and pls ignore if too personal x hugs x
May I suggest that the photo journal the one with four boxes landscape that you use it for progress photos regarding your weight loss. No need to wait for the new year! And each spread could be photos of all four sides of you as you lose weight. Maybe start weekly as this are happening quickly and then monthly. I know when I lost a bunch of weight the before photos shock everyone! Good luck!
This is such a good idea I have been taking a lot more photos lately of things that I would never take a photo of of so I have lots of before and after.
I spoke to you briefly on one of your lives about the bypass. I had mine in April and I’ve lost 5 1/2 stone already. You will wish you did it sooner. Feel free to ask me anything 😊
I am the one person who prefers cream color paper, that has to be why I can't love Sterling Ink, because I have used and enjoyed, but was not excited at all about using it, so it's back to Hobonichi except for workI am going to try Paper Tess.
I just began to watch videos on RUclips. May I suggest that you sound like you are harshly judging yourself. I hope that comment doesn’t offend. I hearing stress. Be kind to yourself. Lifestyle change is a slow and steady process. It’s about continuous behavior for positive wellbeing. May I suggest when you take a photo each month , include for yourself a positive weight loss affirmation that you can repeat to yourself as a mantra, to help relax you and help block out the negative thoughts of the past. It’s a form of self grace. I use this method when I am really stress or hearing negative self thoughts. To Love is to be human. To be human is to understand we need grace, when he is merciful. Grace please in speaking to you so boldly. I understand I haven’t been watching all your videos so i don’t know your whole story. If you have teenagers then i encourage you to have grace for yourself. From a mom to a mum. God Bless.😊
Hey doll, I was just wondering...what style of handbag do you carry? Will you do a what's in my bag or what's in my planner bag? I love your videos, not enough of them lol. Your lineup is great, I have a couple of them. FOMO on the Faded Chronicle! Can't wait to see all the setups!!!

What a lovely comment, and congratulations on your astounding weight loss. Very impressive!! ❤

I knew the minute that I saw your video pop up, that I would be spending some money today. Love!!
Omg girl. I had been rewatching years old videos to get my Becky fix. So glad you’re back!!! ❤
Haha yesssssss 😅
You’re right! You don’t have to justify yourself to anyone! Anyone who thinks they need your justification doesn’t understand what it is you’re about to do. It’s not easy, a very brave choice! I wish good things for you! I hope all of your hard work brings you all the changes you’re hoping for! 😊
I’ve heard that if you take measurements once a week it’s better than once a day… but it’s whatever works for you! ❤. Great video
Yessss finally found a fab planner RUclipsr from the UK! Subscribed right away xx

That mulberry color planner is gorgeous. I waited too long to order and it had sold out.
Hellllllllo so good to hear your voice I’ve missed you sooooo much
Thank you for saying that everything doesn't need to be Instagram ready because you are right-it doesn't!
All the best for your surgery, Becky.👍
Oooh I love that little card holder for mini icon stickers ❤

It will be 2 years in November that I had gastric sleeve done. 100% a life changing surgery. Congratulations and good luck!!

Great to see you back have missed your vlogs good luck with the surgery x
YAY BECKY 🎉💞
🎉😂
Good for you love!❤ As always, wish you the best😊
Hello from Gallway! I'm here from the US for the weekend.
Love your videos ❤
The FiloPlanner chunky notebook looks so fun. Like a Bible almost. But just a notebook.
Love your 2025 planner line up, you've just cost me loads of money 😂
I had a gastric bypass a few years ago now, I lost 8 stone. Not too many regrets!
Have missed your videos, so nice to see you return with a haul aswell......x if you were pondering vlogging your gastric journey am sure am not the only one who would love to hear about your progress...pls excuse if that is too personal, but am pondering it too hence my thought and pls ignore if too personal x hugs x
OMG! I ordered the filo planner too! No idea what I’m going to do with it but I’m so glad you got it too! Please make videos showing how you use it!!!
May I suggest that the photo journal the one with four boxes landscape that you use it for progress photos regarding your weight loss. No need to wait for the new year! And each spread could be photos of all four sides of you as you lose weight. Maybe start weekly as this are happening quickly and then monthly.

This is such a good idea I have been taking a lot more photos lately of things that I would never take a photo of of so I have lots of before and after.
27:24 I did this too! It’s the only way I can justify buying planners😅. Many blessing on your surgery.
I spoke to you briefly on one of your lives about the bypass. I had mine in April and I’ve lost 5 1/2 stone already. You will wish you did it sooner. Feel free to ask me anything 😊
As well as tracking weight you should do measurement. Some times the scales don’t change but measurements do x
I am the one person who prefers cream color paper, that has to be why I can't love Sterling Ink, because I have used and enjoyed, but was not excited at all about using it, so it's back to Hobonichi except for workI am going to try Paper Tess.
All the best for your surgery! If you have any questions please write me, I had mine one in December 2023, now I‘m 10 month post op…

You’ve got a great system set up ! Could you tell me what you use to print your small photos?
I have a HP sprocket and i do a collage of pictures per print
Thank you. Do you not use papertess designs any longer? Will check out the new planner!
I hope all goes well and smoothly with your surgery. I would love to send you some stickers from my shop if you’re interested?
That would be amazing hun. Email me beckymowbray@hotmail.com
Hi Becky
Is the postage/customs really expensive from Sterling Ink? x
The postage is high but fair and I have never had customs charges x
@@Whoopsididitagainco thanks. All the best for your surgery x
Is your Loki the 7year old that made the news about his passport?
He is lol
@@Whoopsididitagainco driving to work here in USA when I heard. I knew it! Good to see you back on RUclips!
