  1. I think I'm not prepared to deal with the questions. My office is soooo nosy! All of us have been caught up in the office gossip about why so and so is out of the office. I don't really care what they think, but I'm just not sharing until I'm ready. So, my story is that I'm having a procedure to deal with some underlying heart issues. And, I'm sticking to it!
  2. I had my visit with my surgeon to sign consents today and the surgery date is set for August 16! Woohoo! Hang in there everybody! It will happen!
  3. Congratulations! We're on our way...
  4. I had three months and the first month didn't count. Started in May, ended in June. You should ask.
  5. I totally feel your pain. After 90 days of mostly 2 meal replacements a day, I had a loss of a whopping 1 lb. How old are you? I'm convinced that I have reached a really bad hormonal place because I am 45 and looking menopause square in the eye. I just can't seem to lose. Although I didn't really lose during the diet, I was approved. This has been hard, so I know what you're saying!
  6. Woohoo! Good luck to you!
  7. One of my friends gels hers down all the time and just goes! I always think she can get away with the shortest looks because she has a perfect figure! I can't wait to do the same! Welcome to the chic, short hair club! Once your hair is healthy and strong again, try a few highlights! You'll love it!
  8. I'm single and met a handsome man in another city. We chat on the phone and communicate electronically a lot. I know he likes me, but I want him to go wild for me! I hadn't seen him since May. Hopefully, surgery will be in August. Although I won't be at goal by then, I can't wait to attend our favorite football game in November in some skinny jeans and some stop the world high heel shoes!!
  9. Ask the surgeon's office for what they sent to the ins, plus copy of confirmation.
  10. Ask to speak with her supervisor or the Doctor.
  11. My pre-op appt with the surgeon is July 25. It can't get here fast enough! I am hoping for an August surgery date. My birthday is August 5. At this point, I would have surgery on my birthday, if that's all they had. I'm just anxious to get this done!
  12. Very good video! I love Dr. A!
  13. I found out I was approved on July 3 too. But, my pre op appt isn't until July 25. I'm hoping for an August surgery date!
  14. I felt the exact same way! It seemed to subside when I was told I was approved. My visit to sign consents is 7/25. I'm just trying to focus on not gaining weight before that visit.
