  1. Great Job I know what it feels like to have 100lbs gone.
  2. Good Luck I am waiting on an approval from my insurance company to have my TT. Let me know how bad the pain is
  3. What do you change about your diet every 1-3 weeks? I thought about going back to the preop diet for 1 week to see how that worked
  4. Thanks for the info. I am waiting to hear from my insurance company about getting a tt. I hope they approve it and I am trying really hard to drop a little more weight before I get the approval letter. (My Dr says to think positive they have approved them before) I only have 35 more to drop and would like to be down 10 before surgey. Good Luck on Friday.
  5. I wish someone would have told me how hard the last 25lbs was going to be!
  6. Is your insurance going to cover this?
  7. OHM, I wish I could run more than one minute at 5.5 without being short of breath. How did you get to the point that you could runs so long. I just cant seem to get my legs strong enough. (Not to mention I have to wear two pair of pants to run because I need a tummy tuck)
  8. God I am right there with everyone else. I can't seem to drop even half a pound and since I can't lose anything else I am starting to over eat because I am stressed out about it.
  9. Good Luck. It will be worth it!
  10. Most insurance will cover the reduction but will they sometimes cover the panni? I don't need a reduction i need implants but I do need a panni. I go Feb 1 to see a plastic surgeon.
  11. I am 1 year post op with 7.5cc in a 10cc band and I still take meds whole. I've never crushed them and never will. I take one pill then 15 min or so later I take another and so on. It is a pain to do it that way but at least I get them down. I even take a calcium chew twice a day and can get it down. Don't stress it will all work out. GOOD LUCK and remember we are hear for you!
  12. Good Luck!!! Have you started some type of exercise program yet? That is going to be the key to good weight loss. P.S. Happy soon to be Birthday!
