  1. Yeah. I got the packets. It's cleanish but colored. And I have a few injury products that are to be delivered 5/15. I'm a prep weirdo! My day isn't until August!!!
  2. I I went online looking for clear protein and isopure came up as having one. I ordered it. It has 50grams of whey protein so I was like this is a good thing to start with when you're trying to get adequate protein in. Got it yesterday, tried it today. It's ok, but NOT clear!!! But I still think its an awesome way to get your protein in!!
  3. I'm going to Dr. Kelly. He's in Tijuana too.
  4. Still unbelievable and so ironic! I loved it! Told my mom and sister! They started asking me all kinda of questions..how long ago. How much was lost. Any problems. I was like, we were in a store! I didn't ask a lot of questions! I so can't wait until August!
  5. I'm an August sleever. The 23rd by Dr. Kelly in Mexico. You can keep me informed of what to expect since you're first! 100lbs would be fantastic. 120 to 130 would be a dream come true!
  6. I joined! I only use the phone app so now I gotta go see how to reply on it. I'm feeling kinda dumb right about now!
  7. Don't worry. I hear people lose differently.
  8. Yes, we need a southshore meeting for us to meet, and additional support system (though I'm not sleeved yet?
  9. Insurance doesn't cover anything relating to OBESITY! So I'm doing what I gotta do. I'm going to Mexico. And believe it or not I'm comfortable with my decision. The only thing Im not happy about is having to follow up with pcp.
  10. I'm sorry. I pray things work out for you.
  11. Westbanker too! Won't be sleeved til August. We need to set up a southshore group. There's some ladies that all meet on the northshore, but it's normally during the week. So...
  12. Do you know what it's under??
  13. Sound like me! Mine is 8/23. Got my liquids I FAA approved packaging, bare minerals makeup doled out in smaller containers, maxi dresses ready (for comfort), clear protein from isopure on its way via ups, got my carryon luggage set from target today, passport ready, lust of things still need to get. Am I excited? Kinda, sorta!!!
  14. Definitely! Im still waiting for my 401k to be deposited in my bank. I know how disheartening setbacks are. Prayers for you.
  15. Dawn, exactly how I feel. I wish I had his support, but this has to be done. It's the uneducated on wls population that doesn't get it.
  16. It might be the start of an ulcer. My rn sister says this is something that can happen with this surgery.
  17. Glad to know. That's who I'm flying with.
  18. I will be going to Mexico. My insurance doesn't cover it, and feel like this is a last hope. I am on the westbank.
  19. Glad to know this. I will be having it done end of August.
  20. AWESOME! Hope to be there next year!
  21. I feel this is the best for me as well. I feel it's dramatic as is to have part of the stomach removed, I DID NOT want my intestines rerouted too. I'll have it done in August. love VST app!
  22. I had a breast reduction 15 years ago, and I signed a release for my tissue to be used for that purpose...so it's possible.
