It has been 7 months since my surgery on june 7th 2011 and have lost 107lbs. I currently weigh 189 and have 49 pounds left to reach my final goal of 140.

june 7th here!

started at 296. as of today im 189 :-D just recently started exercising. i went from a 28w pants, and im currently in a 12/14 juniors pants (depending on brand), shirts i started at a xxlmens.. now my shirts all range from small-large in ladies lol. i pretty much eat what i want at this point, there are some foods that arent my friend though, like ground beef and lettuce. yay!

hey, i had surgery a week from yesterday... everything had been going fine until dinnertime last night, i had soup, itdidnt sit right....didnt throw up, just got really naseaus/uneasy..and had to lay down... since then every time ive tried to have anything other then water and protein shakes(jello, broth, runny mashed potatoes), ive been gettin super naseaus... anyone have any idea what could have set this off all of a sudden? also as of this moning ive been having pain in my lower right stomach area, about 3 inches below/3 inches to the right of my larger incision... it just feels achy if im walkin around, but hurts pretty bad if i prss it or bend over, and is completely gone if im laying down... it just started today...any idea?? thanks so much

It went good... Im still a little sore at the bigger incision, and ive got some serious gas lol, but im doing good hahaha Had a pretty rough weekend my "friends" that were supposed to be over for emotional support were chowing down on all my old favorites right in front of me..ugh, but I kept telling myself that im gonna be thin and beautiful, n theyre gonna be 600lbs if they keep up their pattern :-p

im in camden county! my surgery is june 7th w/ dr wasser in willingboro

yea that was it.. .i understand why they wanted her to lose the weight, although the show thats on now they just did RNY on a 900lb lady.... i didnt like how they kept calling the surgery the 'easy fix'..which everyone on here knows is not the case...i want to see a follow up too though because she wasnt doing so good on the losing 100lb and obviously wasnt taking the whole thing serious

just got done watching a show called 500 pound mom on TLC.... this lady is 606 lbs, and needs to lose 106 lbs to get WLS... what irked the hell out of me, is that they kept saying that she needed to loose 106 lbs to get "quick fix surgery" ....last i checked it wasnt a quick fix. ergg.. .just makes more people think we are all taking the easy way out >.<

thanks everyone! im still in shock, i didnt expect to be approved AND have a date just a week from submitting. ESP with medicaid as an insurance, i thought theyd take their time haha. its all becoming real now.. oy so excited to join the losers bench!!! :Dancing_wub:

just got off the phone with the patient coordinator.. i got approved surgery June 7th! eeek!

i was just wondering how long people had to wait to get a response from insurance.. we submitted to insurance friday. i have horizon nj health(which is a *** for medicaid). i meet all the requirements, and have done all the appointments required. also, once you got insurance okay, did u get scheduled for surgery right away, or was there a delay of any kind? thanks

finally done all my insurance requirements as of yesterday..saw my nasty old primary doctor, and he gave me crap still, but i just kept telling myself this would be the last time i saw his rude self. so i brought that paper over to my surgeons office, and the patient coordinator said she was going to start working on the packet to send over to horizon. yayyyy i hope my insurance doesnt give me any problems. :-D

thanks so much.. guess its time to let these things go for a while :-/ im gonna have fun adjusting to not having them, its been 3 years with them. haha :willy_nilly:
