  2. You deserve to brag! Brag as much as you want. Listen, when I get to my goal weight, I will be wearing a two piece bikini. Preferrable somewhere on the beach in Florida, where no knows me. 'Cause Lord knows, no one will be able to stop me. I can't wait!
  3. Hi Jamiei, Congratulations! If you don't mind sharing, could you please let us know the name of the doctor and cost? Thank you!
  4. Cyrstal, You look so good! Congratulations! Personally, I don't know if I could contain myself I shopped for a size 4!! Exciting!!
  5. I have Cigna. It took me 7 days to get approved. Just make sure you that everything that they request is submitted. Then call to verify that they received it, then call everyday for the status. If the representative is not helpful or rude, just hang up and call again until you get one that is helpful. That was my strategy. Anyway, I think they got tired of me calling everyday. I think I just wore them down.
  6. Thank you! I will call and let you you know the details.

  11. FindingMeMe, Thank you! Lunges is one of my weakness! Now squats, I can do. Maybe I can get some butt implants and be done with it??
  12. Thank you all for your comments! I will build up slowly. I am thinking an extra 5 minutes per workout per week until I get to 60 mins????
  13. Hello Fitness Gurus, I had my 6 month check-up with my Nutrionist and doctor on Tuesday. I am currently completing 30 mins on my elliptical, 4 days per week. Plus, I add some arm exercises with 5 pounds of weights for about 5 minutes. My nutrionist felt that was sufficient. However, my doctor thought that I should increase to 60 mins., 4 days per week. What has worked best for you? Am I doing enough, not enough? Frankly, I am confused. Your responses will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
  14. My dietician recommended chewable Citracel.
  15. Well, I called Cigna to find out if they would cover removal of excess of skin. The rep. said "yes" but would not provide any more details! What???
