  7. Congratulations on the weight lost. But Hmm, I am wondering did I read the posting right? It sounds like your weight is at a stand still. I have read that adding some weight training actually helps with burning fat. So consider adding a weighted vest when you are walking or investing in a five pound dumbbell to increase your lost. Also start a food journal it help you keep track off the little food we do consume in a day. You can utilize the free journal at sparks people and track you fitness as well! I hope this help and good luck on your journey. Sent from my iPad using LapBandTalk

  16. Thank you, Jesus! I got approved. He heard my cry...he knew I was tired of being sick from diabetes, blood pressure and from just being fat! For those of you who are still waiting be encourage and know all things are possible.
  17. I have Aetna as well. My paperwork was submitted this Wednesday and I called them today. They told me it may be up to 3 weeks.
  18. I understand. I'm Nervous as well or maybe I am more scared. Im tired of failing when it comes to weight loss. I really want to succeed in this area of my life. Whats scary is seeing people who had surgery and not losing anything at all. I have one more month 2 go before my surgery will be schedule and I am already debating will it all be worth it in the end.
  19. It's nice to have a place where you a free to express your concerns, aspirations, and your achievements. I am definitely looking forward to connecting to others people as we all transform beyond our wildest dreams. Talk to you later. D
