  1. I thought 3 days of clear liquids and laxative before the surgery.. But I do plan on having a last meal before surgery lol I've read that it doesn't hurt anything.
  2. Girl toss him to the side. If cheating is in him, he will cheating whether you are big or small!
  3. I know! I just don't want anything going wrong... I don't have a Wells Fargo here, but I will just have to drive to one. I just don't feel comfortable carrying a check for that amount around. I get there at 9...it came by sooo fast! How has your preop diet been. This full liquid might kick my tail!
  4. R4AC... I think I would rather do that. I am going to email my coordinator to get that information. Thanks
  5. I am too... It's right around the corner! Here's to a new us! When does your plane arrive in San Diego? My name is Brittany.
  6. I was trying to figure out how to pay my remaining balance. I am scared if I get a money order or something it will get lost... Probably my nerves.
  7. how did you save it as a word document?
  8. Thank you sooooooo much for posting it...so many people didn't want to provide that information on other sites I checked.
  9. I will be 3 days out... It seems surreal. I am ready to be on that road to a smaller me... Good luck!
  10. Good luck to you as well! What hotel are you at and who is your surgeon?
  11. How did you take care of your incisions, especially while you showered? What regime did you do? Thanks!
  12. I am scheduled for surgery with Dr. Garcia on 2/4 and I just want to see who else will be in Sexycity that week. Just a few more days! If you are, please post your date and we could all meet up.
  13. We have surgery on the same day! I will see you in Mexico on the 3rd! Wooohhhooo
  14. When I can go to Macy's and wear the cute stylish clothes.
  15. She didn't come here to seek advice, but to see if anyone had experience anything similar to what she is going through. Nor did she come here to get attacked by people like you! Have you ever heard the saying, " if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." You should definitely start practicing that... Like yesterday. Get a life and target your negative energy to being a productive citizen.
  16. hhmmm you could say that I am being defensive by responding and I would state that I am just offering my opinion...looking at things from a different perspective. I don't offend easily...as I am one of those people who could care less what anyone thinks of me whether it is positive or negative. I don't seek out others for validation of myself. However, I am very much aware that many people in society do. And IMO... just because to that person they are "tellin it like it is" does not make whatever comment any less rude...a little decorum is necessary.
  17. Personally, I do not think that there is anything wrong with being honest. But what is honesty? Something that an individual believes to be correct based on their outlook or knowledge. The problem is that some people do not know how to be tactful and respectful in getting their opinions across...their is such a thing as internet etiquette. As far as people needing to seek friends else where...that can be true but then again how many of your friends can relate to the weightloss journey that you are on or about to embark on...I don't have any. Everyone does things for a different reason, and I cannot knock them because I do not agree with it...but I can express myself and get my opinion across in a non-hostile manner.
  18. I emailed my coordinator and sent her what I wanted the note to say. She then emailed me the note on his letterhead with a signature. Dr. Garcia is my surgeon as well.
  19. Eating more than 4 oz of liquid is not going to make someone gain more than 20 pds. So I don't really think that's the answer to her dilemma. Something isn't right here and the doc is suspect. Who would tell a patient 7 weeks out that they stretched their stomach?? Especially since more than half that time your stomach is swollen and healing. You are doing right... Continue to gather all your documents and seek someone else out. I pray that everything works out for you.
  20. Congrats! I bet you are a nervous excited reck! Lol I pray that all goes well and happy losing.
