preaching to the choir!!!

I have my surgery scheduled for Monday...I have had depression for years... and am on meds for it...not a problem with my psycho... ... it's all good and you will get there...and I love this website as people are supportive and helpful!

Good luck on your journey!

Sounds like you have found it! I am so grateful my surgical team is helpful before and after...and have seminars twice a month to attend to keep on track! Good luck to you!

are you taking your vitamins? have you talked to your doctor? you should not be that exhausted! hope you feel better soon!

those little "perks" are what makes our day! Congrats!

My honeybunny snuggles with me all the time, and I don't understand how he can love the blob that I feel I am... but he does... I look forward to losing weight, having more energy, and chasing HIM around the house for a change!

You are hysterical!!! Love the "insight"... they don't visit with me anymore... but I feel your "pain" LOL...thanks for sharing, even if it's TMI

Everytime I read something like this, I am so GRATEFUL for my doctors office and my bariatric surgeon... they are on top of everything for me... today they called about the test results from Friday!!! I was impressed, unfortunately, they want me to take yet another test, something was a little "off" on my upper GI...but shouldn't pose a problem, they just want it checked out... may not be able to get sleeve because of it ... but we shall see... good luck to you!

weren't you tested for sleep apnea? that sounds like it could be part of your problem... when I have problems sleeping (mostly because of arthritis pain), I take tylenol pm...that works for me, but everyone is different of course

You should, of course, check with your doctor. Each insurance is a bit different on what they expect; but I have not heard of any that will accept the surgery request without a therapist eval and a few other tests... ASK ASK ASK!!!

at one of our get togethers, someone suggested using the low-fat cool whip with the low fat syrups from World Market...they have a TON of flavors...you mix it up until you find the right flavor combo for you....freeze it and then scoop out a spoonful when you have a crave!

Also the flavors are good for teas and coffees.... maybe that might help your sweet tooth... good luck
