Juciilyps:)

I live in St Charles, MO and I am going to Mexico for my sleeve because I am a self pay. I have great insurance but it doesn't cover anything weight related. I am so excited for this new journey to begin.

Good luck with your surgery and see you in the losers circle in October!

Here goes nothing. Im Andrea ..37yrs old ..divorced mother of a 16 & 13 yr old..I've been a nurse for the last 13 yrs..im currently in school.. I have no energy ..im pretty much lifeless at this point..I've also tried every diet and diet pills there is..i was at my lowest weight about 4 yrs ago down to 176 ..but gained it all back plus some ..im at my heaviest at 227 and 5'5"..I've always wanted Wls but my insurance never paid..so this year i was really determined to have the sleeve..and decided to go to Mexico and get sleeved..im soooo excited about being able to see my "girl"..lol... With out having to hold my belly up..lol..im having my surgery 10/10/13..please pray for me...

im being safe and I applied for my passport card today.. and had it expedited will be back within 2-3 weeks..

I am 25lbs from my goal and I refuse to buy any new clothes or panties until I reach it. Idk why I am so excited about buying skinny girl panties!!!! Maybe it's because I've always had to wear granny panties and there is nothing sexy about that lol. My poor hubby ha.The ones I have now are old with holes but I will not buy any until I can fit in the sexy ones like what I envision myself in!!

I just booked my flight today. Surgery on 9-13 with Dr Garcia. Getting so excited.

i hear folks rethinking WLS due to the recent deaths related to it.. But what i don't understand is we hear how folks get killed everyday on the roads and we never think twice about hopping in our car... If we die related to the surgery it was our predestined death date.. everyone has one...u can die from anything we just have to stay prayed up and know in whom you believe...lol

All crazy crazy crazy...now we can't get sleeved and forget what we were before..lol.. All of us are/were a fat fluffy fluff of fat..lol.. But I'm loving this thread.. I just wanted great sex but I'm loving this great comedy..lol.. Carry on..

Now, now girls..
Just because I caught myself a fine specimen of a man, no need to be accusing me of cat fishing!
Catfish...
Oh yummy, I like my catfish just like I like my big abs all buttered up and glistening..
Mmmmm.. I can just eat it all up!

I need to find someone too... Where you from lol

Girl it's been of the hook!
Now if I could just find someone to do it with..

Portesouth NH - Finally got my approval and my Surgery date is 10/22. SO LONG TO WAIT!!!!! ( but then...so long to weight! ) I am dying here...however, this whole experience has been a good lesson in patience, I hae always ben a NOW person...and this has shown me that I cannot control everything( yes I am a control freak too) and that good things will happen when you do what needs to be done.
I am on My Fitess Pal.

This sh@# has just gotten real... I've purchased my plane tickets and deposit made.... I'm nervous and excited all at once.... Finally i'm in the race to great health and a happier life..I finally see a light at the end of the tunnel... Just thinking about being able to see my "girl"( u know what girl.. the girl".. lol without having to hold up my belly... geesh.. that's a big deal..lol.. I like to laugh at it and not cry about it.. im sooo ready to be on the loser bench...TEAM OCTOBER!!!!

its up to the employer to included or exclude the coverage...but thankfully I have a good paying job thank God or I would be screwed..lol..lol..im going to mexico in October.. out of pocket....

I just ordered a "squatty potty" from www.squattypotty.com. It is a stand that fits in front of the toilet. You place your feet on the stand and is places your body position in the "perfect" pooping position. I saw it on the Dr. Oz show a few months ago. I hope this helps. good luck.

I just booked my flight as well! I'm really nervous to be flying on 9-11. My surgery is the 12th with Dr. Alvarez :-) I am super nervous and excited at the same time. I went Vitamin shopping yesterday for the first time in my life! Also I have to get some kind of Protein Shakes. I have Bariatric Advantage chocolate right now left over from some fad diet I tried at the beginning of the year. I have to start my pre-op on Wednesday and I'm scared to death I won't be able to do it.

Ha ha, I had to laugh, it won't be long now until you see your "girl" and so much more!

Hang in there girls and run do not walk towards your new life. Had mine done in us because I was lucky that my insurance covered it. But I am 3 months out 79 lbs down and do not regret it at all! Also I was questioning my choice up until they put the mask on me in the OR. It will be worth it! I promise you 159 million billion times. Hands up high five and keep up the good work.
