  1. I had to stay overnight. My dr. come in at midnight to visit me and hold my hand. The nurses and the care I received was wonderful.
  2. The days are going so fast. This will be my and hubby's first cruise. We are both so excited. We live in Dallas and will be driving down to the boat.
  3. Hubby and I have our online pre boarding done. thats one more thing crossed off my "to do" list now only a million more things to do.
  4. Oh man, I feel your pain on that. I buy a liquid brand from Sam's and it tastes like orage flavored old fish.
  5. Congratulations on your decision. Welcome
  6. I usually have the same conversation with my scale every week. When I step on it the first time I curse at it and tell it how wrong it is then step on it again. It must agree with me because it weighs me 5lbs lighter the second time.
  7. gadgetlady, E-docs are fine with me. As long as they get me and hubby on the cruise <s>
  8. Hi Colleen Congratulations. I went throught the same doubts the day before my banding. You just have to trust that you are doing the right thing for yourself. Be excited that all your planning and hard work are coming to point you have been wishing for. Good luck and let us hear from you
  9. Jenna, You rock that bikini, You deservit it. I am not quite brave enough yet but Im getting there. Are there any planed excursions?? I know there are quite a few we can sign up for. That would be a blast.
  10. I am just so excited about going. This is going to be a blast.
  11. You may want to find another dr to talk to. The last time I saw my dr he had just come back from a bariatric simanar where other dr's were discussing the possibility of RNY patients that have regaind their weight could get a lap band over the RNY. Continue your research. Find the way thats right for you.
  12. I would say your ok, just let them know when you go check in for surgery that you are alrady on them. My dr put me on antibiotics after my surgery to ward off any infections.
  13. I am so sorry for your devastating encounter. I can only hope that divine retribution will find its way into that guys life but never, never let someone else’s ignorance make you doubt who you are and what you are about.
