  14. I too only weigh myself at the dr's office. I would drive myself crazy with a scale at my house lol
  15. I had my surgery August 27th 2013 and I've lost 30 pounds so far. I feel like that's really slow and I've had 3 fills already. I've been walking and exercising. I'm not sure why I'm losing so slow. I'm so frustrated!
  16. I've always thought about getting a Brazilian but I've always been scared! But shaving is horrible especially when you're always getting ingrown hairs
  17. Well at least I'm not alone. I was starting to worry. Everyone so far is feeling normal right after surgery and I'm not. I've been walking around and I feel like crap lol. I just hope this wasn't a mistake
  18. Ugh I'm having the "what the hell was I thinking moment" I just feel like blah. I can't get comfortable enough to sleep. The tugging feeling at the port is so annoying. I'm just miserable feeling...any suggestions?
  19. I finally got approved for my band and that in itself has been a long journey. And though I'm excited and nervous I'm also kind of sad. I feel like I'm a little bit of a cheater since I couldn't lose the weight with just exercise and eating right. I really hope that's a normal feeling!
  20. Just wanted to touch base and let everyone know I got approved today!! Surgery date August 27th!!
  21. Thank you all for the support! I think I may have to find a new Dr.
  22. My pcp told me "if I drop you in the desert for 10 days and don't feed you you'll lose the weight..so I don't think you'll need the surgery" ugh he's a butthole
  23.    kimmykat82 reacted to a post in a topic: such a funny little question ;)
  24. Lol I wasn't worried about the access as I'm pretty flexible but I was hoping for a smaller appearance...a cute little one like you see in porn.
  25. Ugh...that's what I was afraid of thank you for the answers
  26. I haven't been banded yet so I have lots of questions but I was too nervous to ask my doctor about down there! Has anyone lost weight in their vagina? Not the inside part but the outer part.
  27. Hi everyone! Completely new here! I just wanted to know if anyone else was having a hard time getting the letter of necessity from their pcp? I have United health care and I asked the surgeons office to submit the insurance packet without it (doing that today keep your fingers crossed) but I wanted to know if anyone else has had issues getting the letter and if there's a chance for approval without it?
