    ms.marylou got a reaction from KhadijahRose in Post op FIRST time pregnancies   
    So I just found out over the weekend that I am pregnant. I have never had a normal period so I do not know when my LMP was. I am scared though. I am a little over 4 months out from surgery. Ugh...I am so excited but so nervous at the same time.

    ms.marylou got a reaction from HipsAndLipstick in January 2014 Sleevers Come In!   
    Well fingers crossed. (Im still waiting on insurance which kicks in, in January) that my date will be the 13th of jan. I have pretty much everything done just need my psych and classes besides the ekg scope and such. I already have had the class before and have seen a psych before too. But that was last year. Im hoping and praying that this year will be the winner. Just wish my friend could have it done the same day :-(

    My lesson learned is that no matter how prepared I thought I was for WLS..I did not know anything until I experienced it myself...And I am still learning!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes, Adkins can work. Hints:
    Reduce caffine
    Reduce all carbonated drinks, even diet
    No smoking (right!?)
    Cut down/out simple carbs and sugars
    Be as active as you can be
    And all will happen as it should...

    ms.marylou reacted to ih8fat in Getting Sleeved Is Like Getting Married.   
    I’ve been married for 10 years, and have only been trying to get sleeved for a few months, but I’ve come to a conclusion…
    … getting sleeved is like getting married.
    Here’s how I see it:
    THE PROPOSAL: “Will you sleeve me?” This is the question I asked the insurance company. “Let me think about it” was the answer. So I wait in anticipation. I knew I proved myself worthy to the insurance company (i.e., high BMI, >5yrs obesity, etc.) Now I just had to wait for them to accept me. Luckily my wait was only 2 weeks and the answer was “yes.” Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! I’m the happiest girl on earth! I love my insurance company. I’m glad we’re in this thing together.
    PRE-WEDDING PLANS: I’m “engaged” to have surgery. I’ve picked the date. I’m so excited, but do I want to share this news with the world? Not sure. Will my friends/family be supportive? I’m sure they will, but I still like having it be “my little secret.” I also need to take the pre-wedding classes (i.e., nutrition classes, blood tests, ekg, etc.) to make sure that I’m ready for this. They want to make sure that this will be a successful marriage.
    THE BIG DAY (SURGERY DAY): Just like a wedding, everything seems to be revolving around the BIG DAY. The planning, the preparation, the excitement, all leading up to the one day that will certainly change my life for the better! I realize, though, this day is only one day out of the rest of my life – it’s really only the beginning of the process. Like a wedding day, most of the prep, money, and attention goes into this day. But in reality, it’s the honeymoon and marriage I look forward to the most.
    THE HONEYMOON: The honeymoon is that time (within the first year) when all of the exciting changes take place, when the most weight is lost and a new person/lifestyle emerges.
    THE MARRIAGE: Once the honeymoon is over, I expect to settle into a lifetime of healthier eating, ups & downs, new adventures, and unexpected successes (and failures) – just like a real marriage.
