  1. How is sipping flat diet Coke like playing with a snake? This is just like if a pregnant woman eats a ham sandwich and she gets lectured on listeria and lunch meat.
  2. BMI 39.18?? Surely you can buffet-it up to BMI 40 and visit a different doctor.
  3. Not me, I ate better than you, followed more rules than you, worked out more than you, and you're a loser. Hahaha! Just kidding
  4. I pay triple for organic chicken at the store. It's painful at the checkout, but I dunno. I feel better giving it to my family.

    Got My Dates

    We have the same date. I'm Aug 29 as well.
  6. I did not and am glad after reading all these. What a pain in the butt.

    Any Ohio Sleevers?

    Oh, ok, I was going by your original post in May saying you just started -- now here it is July and you're going for surgery. My 6 visits to the nutritionist had to be monthly, regardless of calling for same day appointments or not.

    Any Ohio Sleevers?

    Hey, I was just asking you about pre-ops at Cleve Clinic in another thread! Did you decide to go self pay? How did you get approved so fast???
  9. So what I'm hearing is to enjoy fried chicken now (my absolute favorite) now while I still can.
  10. Why don't you both contribute to a "gift budget" for the kids, and everyone gets equal from there. Anything extra you give to your son is from mom, you can give it to him later. A key to blended families (having come from a failed one) is on some level, acting as just a normal family -- not his half and her half.
  11. Who is your doctor at Cleve Clinic? I have Dr. Krohl on aug 29th! When did they bring you in for all the bloodwork and surgeon visit before surgery?
  12. [quote=Lisa ] I love the new life I'm living and ill be doing my first triathlon in 4 weeks!! How much weight did you lose before you could train for a triathlon? Until I lose weight I can 't even think about running. But my goal one day is to RUN a 5K.
  13. I am sorry to say that I still feel like a failure because I can't control my own portions, I have to resort to getting my stomach cut out. I'm not telling anyone except my husband. 2 friends know I'm "in the process" but they don't know I'm scheduled. At work, I'm going on vacation and working at home. People at work are cool, but we don't sing kumbaya together at breaktime.
  14. And if you haven't, do you have any idea why? I'm due for surgery on August 29th. I haven't done so well with my 6 month insurance diet. I'm scared it won't work for me. I'm scared I won'tbe able to lose weight, even with a tiny stomach.
  15. Hahaha, who has a problem here? Your post WAS negative, it didn't just "sound negative" to her, but that's OK. It was your opinion at the time. That being said, I wish you both the best of weight loss wishes. And I hope my good karma comes back to me and motivates me to start going to the gym like I have been planning for 7 months.
  16. Maybe the WLS will save your life in one way or another. Be grateful.
  17. Going to the Cleve Clinic? I am scheduled for Aug 29. I am disappointed at how little I've been able to lose over the past 7 months myself. And I need to make more time to exercise, but with 2 kids under 3 and working full time, extra energy is hard to come by. Seriously. Here's hoping for the best!
