  1. I'm a secretary at a hosp and ill be recovering on the floor I work for. The manager is gonna get me a private room. She said I wouldn't have a foley?? I thought i would. Which is why i wanted to shave the kitty lol
  2. Lol fun?? What's that?? I can't wait to get my drive back!!!! I want an electric shaver!! I wonder if that would make it easier lol
  3. Lmao omg I love this group!!! I plan on it but its hard for me since I haven't seen it in years!!! Lol
  4. Oh really?? I didn't know that! I honestly didn't research as much as I should have. But the sleeve seemed too new to me. Don't dwell on your first decision. You didn't know what would happen. Now mover forward no worries!!! It will get better!!
  5. Sorry that last thing is supposed to be a smiley lol
  6. OMG you guys!!! Good luck!!!!! Keep us all updated!!! So excited for you all!!!!! YOU GOT THIS!!! ????
  7. Lol!! Don't be sorry! I love reading about this stuff! Wish I had time to read it all day! Thanks for sharing. What a mess!! Sorry u had to go thru all that. Are r u doing the roux en y? At least u can still do something different to take the weight off and keep it off!! I have friends that tried to talk me into the sleeve but my gut said to stick with my original decision of the RNY!!
  8. Rafa what happened to your band surgery? Didnt work? The surgeons I go to wont even do the band anymore. Guess its been bad.
  9. Uh ya I have been too!!! I want to enjoy everything I can because I know my life is going to change in a month!! I have plans every Saturday night this month to go out to eat. I know...I'm terrible!!!
  10. Welcome slim!! Congrats!! I'm 33 and I'm nervous and ready too!! In one month From today I will be getting my pre-testing done!!
  11. Omg me too!!! I think about it all the time and can't get to sleep. Then have weird dreams about it being in the hospital lol. Crazy!!!
  12. I'm so very impatient and am ready to have this surgery like now!!!! Lol can't get here soon enough!!
  13. Wow it really sucks that people say this stuff and don't support us. But it's good to hear that I'm not the only one with negative people around me!! And I work at a hospital and am the Secretary of the surgical unit so it was hard telling all of those nurses!! Especially the Manager of the unit!!! She keeps trying to talk me out of it. But at least she is getting me a private room lol!! My parents aren't on board either so that really bums me out. . I love these forums tho!! Makes me feel so much better!! It's good to have support even if its from people I don't even know . Thanks guys!!!!
  14. Exactly!!!! Ugh insurance is a pain in the ass!!! I guess I'm pretty lucky I don't have to do all of that. Humana just required a 3 month diet from my physician. And I only have to do a liquid diet 5 days before surgery. It's amazing how different everyone's insurance is!! Hang in there!! The things u r doing r awesome!! U have great will power! I'm bad because I've been eating crap!! I know I won't be able to have it anymore so I'm trying to enjoy it while I can lol
  15. Awwwww that is a tough blow . BUT the only thing u can do is stay positive and keep doing what u r doing because its all the right stuff!!! And this is why u need the surgery! U r proving your point right? So u have to lose a certain amount before u can have surgery?? DON'T GIVE UP!!!!
  16. Big Jim!!! October Illinois buddy! . Sounds like we have a few states in our oct group!! Awesome!! So what changes have u guys started making?? I quit drinking soda, quit drinking out of a straw, and I'm taking all the vitamins I need ready. The not drinking while eating is going to be tough!!
  17. Well thanks for starting this Denise!! where is everyone from? I'm in Peoria, IL.
  18. 50 days for this girl!!! . Love the words of encouragement ladies!!!!! So glad I joined this blog or whatever it's called lol. Monday is over!!! Closer to a 3 day weekend!!!!
  19. Don't buy too many!! I have heard from numerous people that your tastes change after the surgery so u might not like the same shake after that u did before! Just an FYI
  20. The psych appt??? How come??? It was so easy!!!! My doc just asked about me like where I'm from, family medical history, what diets and exercise I've tried before, what meds I'm on. Only took 45 min! Nov will be here before u know it!
  21. And sorry u r going thru all of that chelle. Why do they have to do it at the same time?
  22. Hey ladies!!! Just found out yesterday I'm having surgery on Oct 16th!!! Lots of emotions right now lol!! And lace not tmi!!! I'm right there with ya. Think I've had sex twice this YEAR!!! Ugh and I'm only 33!! So excited to be healthy but also excited for all the little things!!
