  1. I had a bone density test too. That is when I determined that I am not big boned!!! HA I am the same percentage as u. I was like wow! It was shocking.
  2. I am so sorry you are going through this. You will get better.
  3. I am so happy to hear you are feeling better! I hope they are able to provide some information on why you dealt with so many clots! Congratulations on ur weight loss! That is awesome.
  4. Hahaha! I am a size 18-20. What's funny is I have never been anything smaller than a 16. So it was the next size down from where I have been. I wanted something to work towards. Plus I had Kohl's cash to spend from my new nightgowns I bought. I be damn if I buy one more thing in a size 20!
  5. I have to say I am excited and nervous! I got my size 14 Levis in mail today and I have to tell you, I cannot see fitting those. They look tiny! I am nervous about my pre-op diet. My hubs is taken me to dinner Friday. It is my favorite meal and restaurant in Bogota. I have pepper steak served with a side of tomatoes, red onions and blue cheese with a bit of olive oil and cracked pepper. Can't forget my glass of Argentina Malbec. So that will be my final "big" meal. Monday starts my real countdown.
  6. So I did by the Unjury starter pack to try them all. But I think I will supplement the glucerna with the Unjury to vary it up. My sweet hubs is gonna do the liquid protein and veggies at night with me. So I can have soup with chicken or fish or beef and veggies in blender. Oh she also told me no exercise during preop. I will be on the exact diet post op for 10 days.
  7. I just got my date, October 1! I will start my pre-op September 17th.
  8. After being approved on August 28th, I finally got my date. I will be sleeved October 1st. I am a mixed bag of emotions.
  9. My doc told me NO drain. I will be on antibotics to reduce the changes of infection.
  10. My doc said he would give me 2 weeks. I have an office job as well. I get up and roam, but it is not phyically demanding. He said most of his patients want to go back to work before that.
  11. I just left my surgeon and he laughed. He said it is a great way to burn calories. Whenever I am ready ! My husband was happy with that response.
  12. I knew u would have no problem! I am loving BcBs Federal! Congratulations!!!
  13. I am sure u will here something soon!!!! Did u call to make sure they have EVERYTHING?
  14. I pray u all have a quick turn around!!! Mine was less than 8 hours but my expectation was a week at least. I don't think there is any rhyme or reason!!
  15. Thanks! I was suppose to have my pre-op surgery appt tonight. I got cancelled until tomorrow and i wasn't even upset. I know I don't feel good If I wasn't sick I would be raging mad as I was looking forward to getting my date!
  16. excuse the typo in the heading..i am home sick with the flu. I just now saw my error.
  17. I don't even know what a size 6 looks like!
  18. Welcome and good luck during your journey. There are men on here and there is a Man's Room Forum. But, yes there are a bunch of us gals.
  19. Yeah, i have been online window shopping too
  20. Lucky for me, I did my pre-op at my job, so I only ended up paying for 1 visit.
  21. You are looking good and will be in that size 6 in no time!
