I am hoping for April as well! I have done my blood panel, my endoscopy and Pap smear is on the 30th of this month. My nut class, consult, support group is this Thursday and my psych eval is next month. After that it's just a chest X-ray and ten they send the paperwork in dr approval. I found out today my cholesterol is 246... Jeeze

Not yet Amanda! It's driving me nuts! I have my endoscopy and Pap smear on the 31st and my psych evaluation next month. I'm thinking April!!

Thanks everyone! This is some good sound advice.. I always walk on eggshells around her cause she comes in corked so easily and starts saying that she's gonna drive off a cliff or no one loves her and crys and I don't wanna see her cry. Its like she plays in my weakness and knows it! Once she told me that I disgust her because I'm so much like my father. All cause she was screaming at me and I would not react.... I have felt with this all my life and I'm kinda done...

K so I have been with my hubs for 13 years.. He's an awesome man who treats me like a queen. My mom is a meddler... She calls all day, texts, blows up every line I have, just to ask me a silly question. She has moved in twice and it's always ended disastrously.. She meddles in our home loans, how we raise our kids and has moved back and forth from California to Oregon more times than I can count which irritates me cause our kids get bummed and she does not seen to care. She recently moved 6 houses down from us and has been just showing up whenever she feels like it. I have asked her to call first but she keeps doing it. She even saw my son walking to school one morning and picked him up and took him to school and did not let us know till way later which kind of pissed us both off. We like to know where he is and feel she should have asked first... My husband who is really passive and easy going has hit his breaking point. He does not even like seeing her anymore. So he told me he was gonna go off on her and I said no let me talk to her calmly. So I did. I simply told her that she has boundaries that need to be respected and she cannot meddle or show up anymore. She FLIPPED OUT on me. Cussed me out and called my husband every name in the book. Then said that she won't come around ever again until I divorce him. Told me she knows he does not like her and that she's done with is. I tried telling her that all she needs to Sonia call before she comes over but she was too far gone by that time. I feel guilty, but we have had enough.... I don't know what to do.... Advice?

Day 44 of no smoking!!! Green Smart Living E Cigs have saved me!!! You all can doing! I have smoked for 17 years and this is it!

It's actually a pretty powerful thing!

Now I'll throw a wrench in this... I am half Scottish yes, my mom is full blooded Scottish. My father is....drumroll please.... Full blooded Mexican! Lol!!! Moral of my story. Don't fuck with me and I will drink you under the table! Lmfao!

Lol! She's up to high doh! This is awesome!

Happy New Year!! I am half Scottish! Clan MacGregor!!

I finally meet Dr Eslami on the 16th for the consultation and then the seminar then the nut class and the support group! All in one day!!! Totally excited!!! I have decided to get the sleeve.

I am also job California, 5'4 with 110 to loose!!

I'm a newbie too. I have my consultation in the 16th as well as my diet class, support group and seminar. I ha blood work today and tomorrow I am scheduling my chest X-ray and my Psych Evaluation. I still need to schedule my endoscopy and that should be it!

California!! Beaches, Mountains, Lakes, Rivers, Dessert. My favorite place is Stinson Beach Ca! We have a beach house there.

Fun! My 11 and 4 year old did the whole thing this year and I did not have the heart to redo it. So it's up and it's perfect!! Lol!!

I LOVE QUINOA!!! I eat it constantly! As a cold salad, as a warm dish, in meatloaf, it's just good!! It comes in black and red too!! My favorite recipe is edemame quinoa. I just came up with this on my own but it's really good. First I boil the quinoa in chicken broth and drain it and set it aside. (I don't rinse it cause I like it warm) in a suate pan I sautée garlic, white onions, red pepper until soft. I then add the edemame into the sautée pan with halved cherry tomatoes. I toss all the items together with sea salt and coarse black pepper and granulated garlic. (The more garlic the better) then pour everything including the infused EVOO over the drained quinoa. Add a small packaged of herbed feta, I toss it all up, add another drizzle of EVOO and a splash of balsamic vinegar. The warmth of the quinoa and the sautée makes the feta soft and delicious!!! If you don't like feta, use goat cheese or fees grated parmesan It's delicious cold the next day too!! YUM!!!!!.

They have no info online about bariatric coverage but I have several emails from customer service saying they do cover it

I did not say one should not quit I just said, not all surgeons check.

Not ALL surgeons will check your blood for nicotine.

Not yet but in procrastinating cause I wanna wait til April..

Anyone have Blue Shield HMO? What wee your requirements?

I tell my husband all the time I want sister wives!! Lol!!! He's down! Lol!

Oh never mind I just saw your ticker. Lol!!! I'm at 235 so I'm curious as to what they will tell me...

How come you had to loose 30 lbs? What was your starting weight?

For the most part people are reporting and increased libido. Personally, if mine had gotten any higher, I would have had to resort to polyandry or polygamy (Although, it has gotten more varied). The reasons? Better health, more energy, better self image, more attractive to your partners, take your pick. BTW, this is an incredibly individual response area, but if you are experiencing a decrease in libido I would check with your PCP. Oh I don't have problems in that department Terry, I'm like you I may have to look into polygamy! Lol!!
