  1. I have never really had any sleep Issues Praise God !
  2. My Dr used a long Big needle and it hurt horribly ! lol !!!
  3. One of the best things I have done was given a NUTRIBULLET for my birthday July 10th. And it helps me daily to eat correctly as I do two Nutriblast shakes a day with whey Protein Ibsolate.
  4. I Agree with Rob; after my insurance co approved me I was in surgery within 2 weeks.
  5. Here is a recently article on the Gov. & His weight gain after Gastric Bypass. Karen Tumulty, who interviewed Huckabee in February for the Washingotn Post observed this scene: Huckabee was tucking into a Breakfast of eggs and butter-slathered pancakes at a trendy New York hotel overlooking Times Square. His much-discussed diet – he famously lost more than 100 pounds after a diabetes diagnosis in 2003 and wrote a book about eating right – is apparently on hiatus. This can happen to you or I or anyone who Desires to change our health and to live longer. Personally I am tired of all the meds I take daily and the fact I can hardly walk as pain in my knees and hips are so bad. Being in ministry it makes others question my faith by saying where is my faith believing GOD for a miracle. GOD isn't going to give me or you a miracle, if we don't do as we should; eat right and change our LIFE! I was banded in June 4th, so s little over two months ago after much sickness since 2008. Previously I walked daily 5-10 a day and ate right too. U had heart & kidney failure in Nov 22, 2008 And feel and broke both knees in Jan 2009. The weight piled on after this point from 230-240 to 318 at my surgery date. Last year working with my dr and her staff I was eating right and reduced down to 275 only to gain it back so my BMI would be correct to be approved by insurance. I regret regaining the weight, when with my health issues the insurance would have not turned me down. I should have never listened to the Lap band departments insurance staff. That being behind me after these few weeks I am down to 287 and hope to be down to 210-220 by the holidays. I will be praying for Gov Huckabee.
  6. Have you been banded yet Lauren ?
  7. JUST got my first fill with Dr Murr at TAMPA GENERAL HOSPITAL; Dr Murr is a great surgeon & a true Gentleman. The needle was really long & hurt a bit during the fill, but I am OK and ready to head home. It is a couple of hours drive back n forth here. The whole staff treats you like family.
  8. I am at the dr as we speak getting my first fill !!! Was banded June 4th
