Nichelle

:lalala: .No, just kidding. I loved reading this topic glad I decided to take a peek! I wish you all the best in your new found confidence and adventures.

Great post! Just remember everyone loses so differently. Plus I've read how two people can be the same weight and be 6 sizes apart from each other. It is crazy and most often feel it is oddly unfair. You will see the results soon. I hear once out of plus sizes the size change dramatically will just a few pounds. So you could think of this as a positive that you still have clothes to wear for now because soon you won't be able to keep your pants up from what I hear. Good luck and btw you are doing fantastic!!:thumbup:

Woot, Woot! Congratulations on all your hard work. You are really looking great.:clap2:

WTG!!! Amazing results and can't wait to join you in onederland!:bananahuge:

I love reading this post. I am glad everyone can be honest enough and share even if they don't agree with the rest. I am just over two months out and I just don't crave fast food like I did before. Before it was almost a daily thing, sometimes even twice a day especially late nite after work to just swing by Mc'Ds was quick fast and easy. I will admit I have stopped for food at wendy's twice. Once during mushy stages and got the chili it was great. Also, recently for Breakfast I got the egg n' sausage burrito from the $1. Peel the tortilla and ate the insides. It was great. I think as long as you are consicious about making better choices and not overeating in the end you will be just fine. It is very apparent everyone on here made the better choice not including or limiting fries, no sugar, no bread/less carb versions of what they wanted. For me it was the everyday or several times a week habit with 2 mcdoubles, a mcchicken, of course fries and a large drink, oh and maybe an apple pie if I felt I deserved it after work that got me so big. Not the occasion piece of chx and lettuce. Congrats to all of you out there living your lives. We didn't make this choice to change who we are and stop living, but to better ourselves and become heathier verisions of us. Hell yea to the sleeve!!! Please like my comment if you agree, Thx

Woot, Woot!! Congrats on your progress. I agree BMI charts are bologna.

Hello, Crossing from San Diego into Mexico takes no time at all. You should be picked up by your driver earlier in the morning and drove across to the hospital. There may have been a small line, but there was really no waiting. On the way back you are scheduled to leave pretty early before your flight home. A driver will pick you up a few hours before your flight. They say it can take anywhere from 30 to 2 hours. I believe it took us 1 hour of sitting in line to get through the boarder. We were picked up just before 7 and across the boarder around 8. However, you won't be bored. There are tons of things to look at. There are people all over the street selling news papers and jewelery. All kinds of odds and end from bubble gum to huge ceramic vases and virgin mary statues. Crazy, lol. It offered some entertainment though. Plus your driver will speak great english so its not going to be akward or anything. Plus once you get closer to the border there are huge tv screens and a bunch more people trying to serve Breakfast burritos. I promise the wait will seem short with the culture shock you'll be having. It was more fun than anything. Congratulations on your date, good luck!!!

I understand how scary it can be to be going there and not have anyone. I just wanted to let you know that you will be fine. Even if you don't end up finding another person going down there the same time as you the staff there will make sure you are taken care of just great. Don't let this be a worry in your mind of things that you should be worrying about. Take care and good luck your day is soon to be here!

I noticed this post earlier, but didn't want to respond with out having an informed response. I was hoping that someone from dr. aceves office would have responded. However, I do not think at all that there will be any problems. I am sure they are well aware of different types of sexual orientation down there too. Have fun and I wouldn't worry about it. Good luck, your date is coming up soon!!

Hi kansasgirl, There are different site because each coordinator creates their own to create their own business. I too went through successfullyslimmer and had Christi as a coordinator. She is fantastic and always has the answers to my questions or will point me in the right direction to find them. The prices and people dealing with the surgery are all the same. Christi was fast to get me the information I needed and still checks up on me. Plus she even sent a small gift package before surgery full of great little forget-me-nots for my trip. I would reccommend her any day. Congratulations with your decision and feel free to contact me any time if you have any questions.

Alittle too over drastic with my fourth of July goal. I missed by 9 lbs. However. I still feel I can do this and set my goal within reach. This goal gives me 9 weeks at a rate of 2.44 lbs. a week. SN..............Starting Wt. 7/5/11........Current.......Goal 9/5/11.......Lbs to Goal Nichelle..........238................................238...............216......................22 lbs.

Congratulations!!! You look fantastic and have some having nsv's to be proud of. Way to go!!! :bananahuge:
