Ps I am not lying, I just don't talk about my life. I go to work and am friendly but no social outings or friends at work like that. None of anyone's business at work to know about my personal life.

Thanx everyone, I don't allow my personal life at my job, don't talk about home or me. I will report them because they did say it at nurses station!

I could do that but what I hate is how people think we are lazy and looking for an easy way out. I hope I get her tomorrow and I will give her the royal treatment!

I work in a hospital and we had a new admission. I was assigned to that patient but I overheard the nurses talking crap about patients with WLS and how lazy they are! The big nurses were saying how they rather die fat than get WLS and have complications in the future. Well I felt bad for this poor patient.... She didn't even know what was being said of her, and she's to trust these women with her life? It hurt me as well!!! They don't know I had sleeve done and this jus why I kept it a secret with my coworkers! I went home Feeling rather depressed. How do you all handle these type of peeps?

I'm from Chicago!!!! I got sleeved March 1, 2011 what part are you from? I'm from the midway area

I just wanted to apologize to those of you who seemed to not like my post regarding the products that worked for me. I hope those of you who reported me (I did receive word that quite a few members reported me), I hope you do not think I'm a fraud and only on here to advertise. I am a true sleeve patient who successfully lost a great amount of weight and been a member for approx 2years of this forum. I have never mentioned the products before this site, I just wanted to help others. If anyone has a problem or concern or doubts please let me know, It did hurt my feelings to be told on and get introuble as if I was in grade school. I can handle the truth by my fellow members. Again I do apologize. Thank you.

I use toning creams, I wish I could tell you which ones but I got an email stating to "stop advertising", not sure if someone told on me thinking "I am advertising", The other day I was at the hospital accompaning my good friend with her sleeve surgery (I work at the same hospital, so I was able to be there day and night, off shift and even on shift go check up on her etc), as I was changing into my scrubs, I took off my pants and didn't realize how my flap had shrunk! Not to be gross but I was happy to be able to see my hoohaa! lol sorry, tmi. But after experiencing the whole pre op hours and recovering time, etc... I was really wishing I could redo my surgery and just have the same joy of my rebirth! I had surgery March 1st 2011 THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE FOR MYSELF! I am glad I found this site as well to be able to chat with you all, those who know what I am going through.

I just came home and happy to announce I only had 1 drink!!! Didn't feel the need to drink! yay! Baby sets!

I am currently going through this... I don't want to quit though? I feel happy and self esteem is high when I am intoxicated I look frwd to the weekends to get drunk, sloppy snooki drunk but not sexually wild, just dance wild and fun! It's been 2 weeks since I had my last drink, only because my work schedule, I am mandatory to work more hours and every other weekend now. So maybe it is a good thing but this weekend I am off and can not wait to drink the night away! I feel so anxious for this weekend! I am so depressed, I take zoloft and xanax to help me.. but it isn't working. I can totally feel your pain.

aw <3 made me smile, it is an incredible feeling to motivate and inspire others! sigh...

I am super excited!!! I was sleeved March 1st 2011. I only lost so far approx 80lbs, makes me feel disappointed. But I have been trying.. I fell into depression and on zoloft and xanax but I got so happy after my great friend had her surgery on Oct 2nd this week! I was there before they wheeled her in, I was there when she was back from recovery room, I visited her all day (I work at that hosp). Today I spoke to her via phone, and now she is off her insulin! I feel I am reliving my first days after, and that makes me feel happy and even motivated to try harder to loose more weight. I just had to share how happy I am to know others were/are inspired by my weight loss. yay!!!! After I had my sleeve, my aunt had it few months ago, my cousin went to a seminar but thinking about it, she is afraid. My other cousin got inspired and now has her surgery scheduled in 2 weeks! I have another cousin looking into her insurance to see if they cover. And my mom is waiting for her pre op class! makes me feel so happy!

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and congratz!

oh my your reply made me get teary eyed! Thank you for your support. Yes it is a rough thing to go through. My grandma passed away from breast cancer some years ago it was rough ... the whole thing my poor grandma my father in law recently passed away from cancer.... a good friend of mine has cancer, returned for the 3rd time!!! She is not doing well I have another friend about my age 32yrs old, passed away from cervical cancer right now I am also helping my other friend from church who is going through cervical cancer, we are doing benefits through the church.... I work in a big hospital, and I am a very caring person, I take care of my patients to the point where sometimes its too much and want to do something else, it's too sad for me So I try and help out whenever I can. I hate cancer!!!! I truly hate it!

Hi Ladies, I have a friend who has cancer, she is going so broke because of medical bills, loosing her house in a few She sent me a link to her online tupperware party to make money. I clicked on the sale section, and there are cute small pink tuppers, I thought of you all because well, when we pack our lunches to work, we need smaller containers lol. There are alot small cute containers... most of all, PINK!!! If any of you would like to help out my friend Marissa or if you need tupperware please buy from her The small pink containers are on sale for $5.00 I think it's a set of 4? not sure, but there are others to choose from, they have a great sale right now. Thanx in advance! http://tinyurl.com/Marissa-s-Think-PINK-party

lol, I started this thread and M.I.A for a bit, came back to find a meet up being planned in Schaumburg. I apologize, but I can't make it I put this thread months ago but no one responded so I gave up on the idea. I still want to wet up a meet up as well before summer is over! (even if it will be a 2nd meet up for some of you) I have been so busy working with movie pre production that will prob come out next year hopefully at a big screen near you! Also running my mom's jewelry business and my Wrap business skin tightening and health, skin care products.. if anyone is interested let me know Even if we can't have a huge reunion maybe a couple of us can get together for some coffee or ice tea?

Anyone?

I CAN NOT BURP FOR THE LIFE OF ME!!! sometimes it's painful but i have to deal with it! WHAT I DO ALOT IS... PppFFrapptabriiiffff (other end!) GROSS! especially when I drink milk good lord!

Hi Ladies, I am so happy I made that post "Let's get this ..whatever I put... lol, I seen a lot of responses. Unfortunately I got injured in my job, it's a matter of life or death so I have been trying to keep positive and hoping all is good at the end of my treatment. Today I got my liver results back and they are good! Sounds sad but when Dr said, no liquor due to meds could lead to liver damage, I started to crave cold drinkys especially when we had those crazy hot days! Anyways, been so busy with driving my mom around doing her pre op stuff!!! Also dealing with all the fun crazy graduation for my daughter <3 I have been super busy! But before all this crazyness, I was planning in my head a "Sleeve-lebration", I was hoping to do some kind of get together, perhaps in August? somewhere in the middle? some of us live in south side area, and some in north side area, why don't we just meet somewhere near downtown? Perhaps a picnic, we could all bring healthy Snacks, fruits, appetizers, etc. We can plan it better when the time comes. We can have clothes swap, even jewerly, or whatever we can to recycle? What does everyone think? I am open for suggestions Please chime in with anything You can follow me on facebook, just hit me a message saying you are from this group and i will accept you. I don't accept strangers but you guys are not strangers anymore http://www.facebook.com/#!/lety.ramirez.509 p.s majority of the peeps do not know I went through with the surgery, you know how people are So excited, hopefully everyone would love to join in a meet up, I know I do!

YES!!! I was freezing cold for approx 10months, it's normal! you are o.k

wow, never heard of it, I don't live to far from there! Is this a inpatient surgery place?

I am so happy for you both!! lucky you both for having the oppourtunity to do this together!!!! will keep you both in my thoughts! keep us posted!

lol, I don't watch that show but this post made me giggle...

Where is this at? Just wondering

I met a lady at my support group who did not even tell her own husband!!!!! he was away on a business trip (what the.. how did my font go this small!) yea but no one knew but him.. I asked her, didn't he wonder why she was in the hosp for few days or why she doesn't eat or can't eat like before. She said, she lied and said she "gall bladder removal" hmmm, crazy huh? if you own husband can't support you... then what? but to each their own

WHEN I WROTE THIS... that is exactly what played in my head!! my fav band back in the day was GUNS N ROSES!!!! lol
