  2. Hey girls how are things goingt his weekend with you all? I am stuck in the house working on this paper and I am abuot to scream. lol I ask my self everyday " Cassandra montes why in the world did you enroll to get a doctorial degree? LOL" Good news is that my professor said it is no reason why I should not be done by the end of the year so I am on a mission. I am also trying to get things caught up because when I have my surgery I am not going to be trying to read a book, or nothing lol Chas girl your face looking a little different now. Slimming down huh? How much have you lost so far?
  3. You have to walk. Don't want that has setteling in. I hear its horrible. It will get better as the days pass. Don't be hungry is music to my ears........that's good!!!!!!
  4. Congratulations!!! Glad to see everything went well. Dr Hollis I will see for my follow up care. I'm going to have surgery done in Dallas by his partner. Do you feel hungry?
  5. I am not sure if I said but the doctors office called me last night. I have my surgery date set now for June 14th. I go in to see him on June 13th. I will be going to Dallas that Thursday have my office visit spend the night at a hotel then have surgery next day. I will do all my follow up care here in Houston with Dr. Hollis @ True Results.
  6. I am looking forward to all of that. I want to go hiking, bike riding, rock climbing (inside of course) lol One thing that I always wanted to do was jog. Im getting old and I need to get my heart strong lol
  7. I say we all get a bike and hit up some trails a few times a month. How long after surgery before we can exercise? I think I read that walking can be done immediately....?
  8. Alright!!!!!!! That's great. Congratulation. I just got my call June 14 th is my date. I am super excited too!!!!
  9. Don't be scared I hear its a piece of cake
  10. Dry for the typo I hate auto correct lol
  11. They sedate you out the tube to check your upper gi area.
  12. OK , I have my EDG consulation set up for the first of May. One thing I hate about that is having that sore throat afterwards. Ughhh!
  13. I am going to try the Protein drink this coming week. Thanks for the tips. I really appreciate it. I was told if I had not lost weight when its time for the surgery they will cancel. I understand that they want to shrink the liver to get to the stomach better that that's a little bit of pressure to me. They didn't ask you to bring in a two week journal or questioned it before the surgery?
  14. So you like the EAS protein drinks? That was my next question. I have tried many in the pass and they were just not my cup of tea. lol Thanks for the info on the foods. I have wrote it down. I am praying that I do good on the 2 week preop diet. As long as I am at work I will do good. I been doing a lot better at home as well. I just have to make sure I have meal replacments here during dinner time. Did you do the pre op diet? If so, does it matter if you have your small meal for lunch or dinner? I was thinking about doing my small meal for lunch.
  15. I got my flanks done and.its crazy because no fat ever goes.back to that same spot. I guess some can over do it but mine's is still flat after 4 years.
  16. Thats great. You will love it. Are you going to get lipo of the flanks as well?
  17. For sure slow and steady win. Glad to hear that everything is going well with your band. So may I ask a question? Before 2nd fill did you start to feel hungry a lot ?
  18. No not celebrating. I am preparing for the STAAR testing next week and I am trying to relax and get my head together. I iwll Celebrate after testing lol
  19. Thats the plan. Going back a totally new person. I think I may cut my hair LOL
  20. Ok. I was wondering about that. That was the one question I forgot to ask.
