  4. Went from 314 to 321 on Sunday for Aunt Flo's visit. Back to 314 now. Five days until surgery. Wonder if I'll be able to take anything off between now and then

  5. OMGoodness, the pain in my leg is almost unbearable tonight. I feel like pulling an "House" and marching up and down the hallway with a cane in one hand and a bottle of Vicodin in the other.

  6. I had the most awesome day today; delivering all of that family's stuff, spending the afternoon with my son's multi-needs handicap class and playing with a guinea pig (I'm a big kid). After my shots yesterday and my steroid pills today, I have just been ecstatic. Haven't had even the slightest twinge of pain. That is a utter miracle for me!

  7. I just got the call from the doctor's office to set up my pre-surgery appointment/education class! She told me to be there Wed. (Feb. 1) at 8:30, wear comfortable clothes and shoes and be prepared to stay all day. My pre-op diet will start on Friday. Still waiting on my letter, but the ins. Assured her it was coming *please X*

  8. I am addicted to you people! I just can't stay away. I want my sleeve * turning green* :0P

  9. Anthem says all my approval lacks is the RN going over it. It should be done tomorrow. Fingers crossed :0)

  10. Hi favoredone. Just checking in on you sweetie. Hope you are coming along well. Big(((hugs))) and congrats. Hope to be there with you soon :0)

  11. Hey AMom, I recognized your autism support heart immediatly. I added you as a friend. I have four boys and my oldest two are autistic. My surgery is Feb 14, so I will meet you on the loser's bench soon

  12. Ok ladies and gents. I need you to send some requests up for me. My insurance coordinator is sending my new medical info to the insurance today. I need an approval letter. I have already missed one surgery date.

  13. Aggghhhh!! Please give me an answer!

  14. Bought all the supplies for our Veggie Tales "8 Polish Christmas Dishes" party with my son's multi-needs handicapped class on Friday. We are going to have a blast with them :0)

  15. My four year old opened EVERY single present under our tree this morning, today was the last day of school until Jan. 9 and my steroids have played out. Lord help me to have a hair left on my head by the time this is all over!

  16. We have hit another road block. 1/19 is my last chance for a peer to peer and my doc will be out of the office until Monday. I also have a problem with a break down in communication between the, DO, ins. and myself. The ins. tells me one thing and the ins. Coordinator says they tell her something different. Upset at the circus :0(

  17. Christen, the nurse from Anthem, called me and said my surgery had been denied, but not to "wig-out" or anything. She said Dr. Pinson needed to do a peer to peer and everything should be fine. She said I should have surgery on Feb. 14 as planned.

  18. Just wanted to say: awesome progress and congrats on the new you. You are really rockin that sleeve. You go man!

  19. The surgeon's office ( Terry Pinson, Tupelo,MS) just called to remind me of my appointment on Monday. I Sure Hope the insurance gets on the ball. I am ready to get this show on the road :0)

  20. You have the most beautiful face and sweetest smile. I am so proud for you to be on the road to a healthier life, but let me tell you something. If you are doing this to make you beautiful, you don't have to. You have a light that shines from within that makes you absolutely luminous!

  21. I'm really just feeling like breaking down and crying. I just kind of have this pit in my stomach that things are not going to work out. I'm still waiting!

  22. Burr...I am fr.fr.fr.freezing!

  23. Anthem didn't get my approval done on Friday, so we are still playing the waiting game. Technically they have up to 30 days, but it should have already been done. It is the medical department holding it up. The insurance end had it coded in two days. Yuck!

  24. Ugh...we all have the crud. It is awful. Half the people we know are sick. It seems to get worse every year. :0/

  25. Doctor's appointment this morning...down 84#.
