thanks for all the support guys! and mommamare, i think u shud pack a lil overnight bag for the hospital. im gonna pack some crystal light, comfortable loose clothing, any prescribed pain meds, and emergency contact numbers. good luck with ur surgery

oh yea, def count me in if yall wanna meet up or start a lil nyc support group cuz my doctor is all the way in middletown and its a journey to get to support groups up there....

i use designer whey in the chocolate flavor. i get mine from gnc. its not bad at all as long as u use a blender to make the shake, i use a magic bullet and its great. this is the only protein shake ive tried and i really dont mind the taste at all. and it only has 100 calories per serving and no carbs

hey alex, welcome! great to hear that ur ready to change ur life for the better, i get mine done like next week and im so excited! good luck with everything and always feel free to ask any questions if u need too!

I use the nuva ring its pretty cool espescially if ur not good at remembering to take pill like me lol. its pretty low dose so there arent any side affects.

hey im natacha, born and raised in long island, currently living in NYC. i will be banded by dr.kwon on 1/9/08 in port jervis ny

hey, im not too sure what cobra is, but i have uhc choice plus in nyc and i got approved w/in 5 business days!

welcome!!! i can soooo relate to ur post, i was lurking around this website for months before i finally decided to start my journey. im glad ur choosing to go thru with it, and even tho i havent gotten mine done yet, im sure it will be worth it all. good luck with everything!

Congrats!!! i got my approval in 5 business days with UHC! Go January bandsters!

I live in NYC in Harlem. I was born and raised in LI, New York tho. Whats up?

omg its so funny i found this thread cuz i was sooo about to make one of my own lol. i just got an email from victoria's secret for bras on sale and i was wondering if i shud go and buy a couple of bras in some smaller sizes so i cud have when i lose more weight. but now that i see im not alone on this idea, im going tomorrow!!

my doctor is the same way, we have to lose 5% of our body weight b4 surgery or else he will cancel it, its so that ur liver cud be small enuff for him to see ur stomach and operate on it properly. I had to lose 14 lbs and i have lose 16 yay me! I just gotta make sure it stays off for my surg date on the 9th
