Thanks, I think I'll try a pita pocket tomorrow. I would love to have a sandwich and regular bread is a no no, it hurts! LOL

Back in 2009 I had gotten to 227 lbs and decided I was done. I began walking on the treadmill, then eventually running on the treadmill, then eventually running outside. I had to go from about 227 to 190 before anyone really noticed. I had gotten down to 156 and it was really noticeable!

I managed to get back to 195 and decided to take a more permanent solution. I was banded on August 23rd and I can't wait to see 30-40 lbs gone! Sometimes it just takes about 40-50 lbs to really see it. You're doing great, keep up the good work, soon you'll get tired of all the compliments!!

Yea, we're surgery mates. I'll have my surgery on August 23rd as well. Good luck on your new journey!!

Can you not use appetite suppressants while waitin for your first fill?

Took me a while to figure out how to get my ticker to show up, don't know exactly how I did it but it's there! Doing my happy snoopy dance!!

My insurance does not cover weight loss surgery BUT they do cover Hiatal Hernias which I do have. I'm now being banded via my hernia surgery. My out of pocket will be $5500 which True Results will finance at $235 per month. I was turned down by Care Credit. You may want to try that option. Good luck to you.

Awesome, just fantastic what an inspiration!!

Awesome, my surgery is August 23rd, can't get here fast enough. Hoping for a smooth recovery!!
