  1. You sound like you would be good at hair. I wanted to go to cosmetology school but I've learned through managing a restaurant that I love customer service and business. I've lost interest in hair because I would be devastated to mess it up.
  2. Yeah my husband said he doesnt want me to cut off my hair. I want him to be attracted to me still. Even though he cut off his goatee wich made me sad.
  3. It's scar tissue. I just got over it! It's horrid felt like a burning poker in my stomach! It pulled and burned ouch! I really thought I had done something wrong. I'm fine now it will go away I promise. I took my pain meds and rested once off work.
  4. They charged for me a total of 74,000 and my insurance settled for 45,000 I think its total bs!!!!,
  5. I was banded 6-12-12 I'm down 39 lbs I want to get under 300 soon I have 16 lbs to go. I've been loosing about 2 lbs a week I get my first fill 7-27-12. I'm healing well and love my band so far. I eat off of a saucer plate now and get full. I still have problems sometimes with saying bye bye to my plate even though I'm so so full. I'm working on it my husband helps me he says babe your head hungry your driven to finish your plate go throw it away. He is So supportive.

  13. Oh thanks guys you all just made Me feel so much better!
  14. My husband came home with the stomach bug today and I'm terrified of getting it. I'm so afraid I'm going to get sick and my band is going to slip. I made him sleep on the couch. The worst part is my tummy feels a little queasy right now. I've been through so much lately I just don't want anything to happen. Anyone else had the stomach bug and come out of it ok. Oh I'm only 3 weeks post op so my band is just barley fitting in and I have no fills yet.
  15. Well good luck I hope everything goes well!! It's so exiting as you get closer to meeting your goal.
  16. Nope I had ta attend the first initial consaltation then a doc visit for him to find me suitable he turned down my hubby. Then a phyc visit then 1 nutrition visit then blood work then surgery that's it but I did wait a while because the docs office and the insurance got wires crossed oh and 3 years past history of weights
