HHi Bernadine...my name is Kelly :-) I promised myself that when I wake up tomorrow, ill wake up in a positive mood and get my ass back on track:-) Sorry to hear that you are sick, but like you said, better now than at surgery time. I led a few of those apps you told me about. In definitely going to like the med reminder app. Thanks again. Hope you feel better soon.

One of my fav flavor packs.

I've been looking through the before and after thread here. Wow!!! They all look amazing and I know they feel so much better as well. I guess I'm just very impatient. I want to be on the other side of this nightmare already and its making me feel crappy. I need to think positive and keep chugging along...and telling myself that I will get there too. Im sure most of us struggle with the same thoughts and frustrations. Thanks for listening to me whine lol. Tomorrow I will wake up more positive. I can do this and will get thru this waiting process :-) (Pre op) sw 341~cw 319~gw 140

I'm trying...like I said, since my appt, I've been off track. Tomorrow ill be back on track...I hope. Just been kinda down and in a lot of pain. Blah. Time to kick my own a$$ back into gear.

Hey girl...just checking on ya. How did u make out at your weigh in?? I've been eating like crap since my Dr appt. Back on track tomorrow. Ugh. Hope you are well. I tried to private message you but I keep getting an error?? (Pre op) sw 341~cw 319~gw 140

Im sure you are absolutely right. I'm sure many back out. The impatient side of me wants it done NOW but in reality, the wait is for the best for most being it is a life long change to our God given bodies. For me, I've been wanting and researching the surgery for years. I made the final decision to follow through when life just became not fun anymore, everyday normal things became difficult to do, and I realized that for at least the past 5 years, I've sat in my house/bedroom rotting and getting larger, while most of the world was enjoying their lives. I want to enjoy life. I want to smile. I don't want to hide in my bedroom anymore. (Pre op) sw 341~cw 319~gw 140

Same here. It's going by so slow. I had hoped for a December date but now I'm thinking it will be more like February. Ugh!! (Pre op) sw 341~cw 319~gw 140

Best of luck!!! (Pre op) sw 341~cw 319~gw 140

I just had my 3rd appt, 2nd class got the binder and book today. So I guess that hope of having a December date will be more like February or March :-( ugh. I envy those that don't have to go thru the six months of appts. I guess it good for some but dammit, Ive done my own homework lol. I already reached my weight loss goal+ and quit smoking. I only had to lose half of the 10% required cuz I had to quit smoking too. Next month I have the 2.5 BME appt. I'm ready to go get this done lol. I haven't joined the yahoo group. Do you have the link to it?? I don't use FB much but I will look at the page. Thanks for telling me about them. I'm pretty sure my surgery will be in Danville. Definitely should keep in touch even tho we aren't as close as I was hoping for. Good luck with the psych eval. Fingers crossed you get the green light :-) Congrats on the weight loss!!! You did great. (Pre op) Journey Starting Weight: 341, Current Weight: 319, Goal weight: 140 (After GB)

Looking for a buddy/ mentor in my area. I'm pre op but can't wait to jump to the post op side of this nightmare. I'm ready to get out of this fat suit and feel good. (Pre op) Journey Starting Weight: 341, Current Weight: 319, Goal weight: 140 (After GB) Hoping for December surgery date!!!

Well...the bar b Que went good...however, remember I broke that step on Friday?? Well, guess what. I forgot the step was missing and fell down the steps again. I sat there crying and yelling f*ck my life. The problem is, I'm round. I can't see around myself. If I could, I would have seen the step was missing and remembered it was broken and gone and stepped accordingly. Ugh. So now I twisted my other knee. I wish I was kidding but I'm not. Add it to my profile when submitting my claim to insurance please....too large to see around self and trips and falls often. Like I said, I'm 5'2 so I'm quite round. Did I feel like smoking?? Absolutely!!! But I didn't!!! However, I did go over my calories today...the day before I weigh in :-( god I'm an idiot. Oh well...life will go on. I'm collecting things also for after surgery. My hair is very long as well and I planned on getting it cut shoulder length right before surgery to not have to deal with it and for the falling out period. You will get into that seatbelt soon. Just keep up what u r doing and before you know it, you will feel a bit smaller behind the steering wheel. We are in it to win it girl!!! Just losing 24 pounds, I feel a few things are a lil easier like reaching my bum in the shower lol. Sad but true. Hope you had a good day with the kiddos. Mine 2 brats went to the cookout as well today. It was a good time. We laughed a lot. My family is very small and we were all there :-) except my daddy in heaven :'( (Pre op) Journey Starting Weight: 341, Current Weight: 319, Goal weight: 140 (After GB) Hoping for December surgery date!!!

Sounds like you had a great day with your foster daughter. I never thought of looking into swimming at a hotel. We have 2 public pools in the area but the last time I was there, years ago, they were so crowded. I'll have to look around. It looks like most ppl in here favor the ninja blender because it does the ice. To me, all protein has been awful. I've tried a few different premades and powders and they all taste bad. I just choke it down. Now that I quit smoking, my taste buds will change so maybe ill find one I can semi enjoy. Im going to order the plain protein from unjury to mix in foods. Every little bit of protein counts. I love fish and clams and mussels and shrimp and they are all good for protein. I also love beef Jerky. A lot of the time I will eat an ounce of beef jerky with a low fat 50 calorie cheese stick (frigo cheesehead) and call it my lunch. I never tried any of the juice Proteins. I'll take your word that they taste awful lol. I'm just taking regular one a day vitamins right now. Oh, and I ordered some Biotin to start now. Hopefully by starting biotin now, it will help later when my hair wants to fall out post op. One thing I have noticed...I have only lost 24.2 lbs but, my seatbelt fits sooo much better and more comfortable. I haven't worn a seatbelt in many years even tho its a law here in pa. The last time I got pulled over for speeding, I grabbed my seatbelt quick and I couldn't get it buckled in time so my daughter held it down next to my seat the whole time the officer was at my window so I didn't get cited for no seatbelt too lol. How embarassing. Can you imagine having to explain to a police office that the reason ur not wearing a seatbelt is because you are too heavy?? And he was a hot police officer lol. I would have died. So yeah, buckling up without a hassle made me smile. My fingers are crossed for you that you get your next appt!!! You can do it!! My appts have been once a month. They haven't depended on weight loss. I guess all centers are different. Today, we are going to a cookout at my brothers house. This should be fun since cookouts always have all kinds of Yummy food that I shouldn't eat. Ugh. Moderation, moderation. Maybe it will get rained out lol. Have a great day Terri!!
