well I just signed my life away! Literally! lol I had to sign sooooo many consent papers! I officially have preop on 8/20 and surgury on 8/27. I dont think i have a liquid diet because they havent mentioned it. They said to just stick with 1 meal replacement per day, which I have been doing since April. I am stuck right at 11.4 pounds though! for weeks! And I have been exercising more than ever because I am in production for 2 shows! oh well. Now I will start to get realllllly nervous!

Name-kellie Age-28 Location-stoughton, ma (just south of Boston ) Weight-362-349-125 Well I said before I'm a musical theater nerd . I live in stoughton with my family for now. I am planning on moving soon. Where, I don't know, it all depends on how auditions go after this is over and where my bf gets into grad school. I also got into a musical theater grad program starting in January. Haven't decided yet if I am goingto go or not.

Is anyone else in or newar MA? I am getting mine done at St. Elizabeths with Nicole Pecquex. I cant believe how many people go to Mexico! Also, once I got my date I have an instandly nervous stomach. Ugh. lol

I finally FINALLY got a date for surgury. August 27th. A little later than i wanted but what can ya do. The only other date was Audgust 13th and I had to pass that up because of a previous conflict I cannot get out of. AH!

I feel like everyone on here is having surgery in Mexico with the same doctors! Anyone else in mass? Btw I have been using whey 360 protien from gnc. I have two big bags of chocolate and vanilla nd are making my own shakes. I like them enough so I have stuck with them. My favorite so far is a up of 1% milk, two scoops of chocolate protien and a package of no sugar added hot chocolate mix. Its like a glass of chocolate milk!

See my NUT has had me on a partial liquid diet since April! So basically 1-2 liquid meals per day. I am doing every other day with one then 2. The first week you feel hungry an grumpy but then you get used to it. I have been religious about this and wasn't dropping weight and was so annoyed! And I am super active! But I was taking a steroid and they took me off ut and I ave dropped 10 pounds in a week lol

My last meal will definitly be Chinese food! mhmmmmm lol

So my three things are a little different. I am a musical theater actress. I huge part of getting thisurgury is to broaden my career. So my t hree things are: 1. Being able to play more than a handful of lead roles and not always being the friend or the mom etc 2. Getting my headshot redone and being happy with it and confident sending it out! 3. Being able to cleanly land a triple pirouette again 4. Not being a problem for costume designers who always have to male my costume specially

SO frustrated right now! I had an appoint ment two weeks ago with the surgeon. She wanted to schedule but I was still working things out with work/short term disability. Figured it out and they said just wait for your next appointment and we will schedule you for surgury. ok its on the 17th thats fine. Then they just called and said we have to cancel and the next appoint ment is august 14th. REALLY? so not fair! We were looking at scheduling it on August 7th. really frustrated

I feel like I am the only person not excited! I'm not nervous or scared really either though. I'm kinda indifferent and I feel everyone else is excited and making a huge deal about it and I'm like yeah ok hanks lol. P.s. Thanks kezar the body monitor app is great! And igot my new eat smart scale today and it came with a tape measure for measurements. Genius lol

Thank you!!! Sounds great!

What measurements are you all going to keep? Im thinking neck, bust, hips, waist, calf and arms? Anything else i should keep track of? I am dying to get an official date now that everything is squared away! But I have to wait for my next appt on July 17th. boooooo I know she wants to get me in quickly so im still thinking august 6th or 7th

I feel like everyone on here has been scheduled for months! My doctor gets you in within a few weeks once everything is settled. I would actually have had it in July but I am dealing with work short term disability. I swear that is the worst part! The tests were fine, I didnt have to do any 6 month plan. Insurance approved it within like 3 days, but its short term disability! Seriously agravating. But I am also in a musical that ends on July 29th so I have to wait till my contract for that ended anyways

Well I already knew but got my official approval Kettering in the mail today. Seemed really easy! I didn't have to do a thing!

I am a musical theater acrtress, so the thing I am looking forward to is a chance to play the roles I have always wanted to and not get stuck being the friend or mother anymore!! Also, I am looking forward to being able to do a triple pirouette again without falling out of it and not getting winded by the end of a huge dance number
