Love reading Nancy keep up the good work

Same with special k shakes the calories are too high so don't use them either

My nut said that for every 10g of protein the calories need to be 100 or less. She did not recommend slim fast. Buy EAS it has 17g of protein and 100 calories. Costs about 5 bucks a 4 pack but you can get them in cases like at Sam's club

Chunky usually your insurance is canceled as of the day you quit. Some policies give you 30 days. You can call the insurance company and Ask so that you can be better informed before making that decision.

This is what I am scared of. Sometimes I wonder if I am sub consciously sabotaging myself thinking something is going to prevent me from having this surgery after wanting it for so many years and now that it is in my grasp something will take it away. I quit smoking a month ago and gained 7 pounds. I have to lose at least 5 by September 24th but I don't know how. I am constantly hungry now. Not only did I quit smoking I went through 2 weeks of h-pylori treatment which now that is over I am hungry I don't know what to do to help get over this

LOL too funny

The first 4 months seemed to fly by for me ..its just since my last appt on Aug 23 that it is now taking forever

That's exactly how I felt Kim lol

The brand is called Fuma and I got it at a convenient store

That is wonderful news

I don't care who knows. I am proud of my decision and I am not going to hide it and feel guilty like hiding your kid came home with lice

Yeah my pcp had told me they were perfectly fine.

Hopefully November

I know love its rough. I love this forum but it does seem that since I signed up it is taking forever. I guess reading daily about this one having surgery that one getting out (which I am totally happy and support them) my impatient self is coming through LOL

So now I just have to buy refill cartridges after buying the start up

Not too bad but if you they of how much weekly you spend on cigs they are cheap. I have a fuma brand electronic cig I bought the start up kit which included the charger and a menthol and light cartridge cost about 25 bucks plus tax. Then I bought the full flavor cartridges which has. 5 cartridges and that lasts me about 2 weeks and it cost 13 bucks. So a lot cheaper then real cigs

That's what I am using. It has helped. The first week I only used hard candy. Then I bought the E-cig at the gas station and it does help

My husband quit smoking with me but he started dipping same day. He plans to stop that too when the urge of no cigs leaves him I guess

Welcome Cynthia. I an addicted as well to this support group LOL. Good luck on your approval process

I am not sure as I haven't had surgery yet. But in my opinion a lot of times when men or women have self esteem issues from the get go they do tend to " settle" into relationships that are abusive or just because they think that is all they are worth and might as well take what you can get so not to he alone. But on the other hand there are truly decent people that will look inside your heart and not what's on the outside

I used cinnamon candy but mostly butterscotch

I haven't had to pay but a total of $12 bucks since starting all this. I guess I have pretty good insurance

Oh goodness truth...I haven'teven thought about that yet weeeeeee now I am even more excited ...I have just been to scared to really believe this is happening to me. I keep waiting for a shoe to drop to prevent it

It's tough but can be done. Get hard candies and lots of gum. Easy using to much cinnamon candies as it can kill good bacteria in your mouth and cause thrush

Lol
