I'm still hanging in here... no insurance and no money for self pay fills adds up to no changes...

 

Moved to Oklahoma in Nov 2009...

Moving to California in Oct 2010... this is THE LAST MOVE... I'm not leaving Cali EVER..

 

Trying again to get back on track life still in chaos... I'm still here though :smile2:

    Reading your post I get a very positive vibe like everything is going to change dramatically for you... I think your lack of weightloss/change will happen very soon too, besides being in Cali you can always go to TJ and have Dr Ponce de Leon do your fills for CHEAP.

    Yeah I was thinking TJ would be an option... then I remember that you need a passport to cross the border now and I don't have one... YET... :)

    And yes I feel things are on the upswing FINALLY in my life again... so Cali here I come :tt2:

    Thanks Debra!!

    Without my band the last 5 yrs would have found me weighing OVER 400lbs... with it I have stayed UNDER 300 and only gained 40lbs over my lowest weight since surgery..
