  1. Ginger snaps... My dating is on hold too but I still get lonely at times.
  2. I am praying for surgery for next month (June) I admit though the same thoughts have went through my mind I do not want gain back. You'll get through just get your protein and water in and eat as your plan says. Every doctor is different so go and follow your plan.

  4. I want to dance, be a cowgirl, I want ride Harley's lol
  5. Does anyone ever think before surgery about being the person they are deep down after surgery that you could never become as an overweight person? It's hitting me hard now that I am so close to my date(just waiting on approval). Has anyone experienced this before?
  6. Can I go on record as saying this all scares me? See I have been over weight my entire life and I know now that I have used my weight as a way to try to keep from getting hurt by others even though I get hurt often from different people. There is apart of my deathly afraid of receiving a lot of attention or seeing how it changes the people I have always known. Is anyone experienced that before.
  7. Am I the only one going through this surgery as a single female? I have had relationships but I want someone who values me and doesn't treat me like trash so I am single. I'm also very overweight. I just wonder if I am not alone in this matter what you did for support or what happened once you started loosing weight? Rather Lonely at times!
  8. Is anyone from Northeast Georgia?
  9. I'm just believing with everything in me I will get approval this week. I'm so ready ... Have you had your surgery? How did it go?
  10. I know what you mean all are right there together including my mom's I am a fall baby (October) so I got a little breathing room but not much lol
  11. I have done absolutely everything required like that so I should be in good hands n it want take long at all for approval.... Thank you
  12. I had all winter babies one in December 2 in January and 1 in February lol it's not all hot n sticky.
  13. Having the IDU removed will probably kick start it it shouldn't be long now.... Good Luck!!!!
  14. I agree in support group they have said that is a sign of ketosis.
  15. Does anyone have Medicaid? Amerigroup or WellCare , what is the approval turn around typically? Thank you to all that respond
  16. I have 200 plus to loose but I know I can do this and I look forward to the challenge I can sympathize with anyone
  17. Mine will be in June as well but not sure of when yet in June but I'm EXCITED
  18. Hi.... Well a lot of people knew my decision about wanting bypass surgery BUT, now that paperwork has been sent to insurance and we all are hoping for June I have only told a select few due to so much negative feedback from people who were either jealous or just people wanting to see me fall on my face.... I am super super morbid obese And have 4 children this surgery is my life line it is NOT easy but I got to live and see my babies grow up. Just my opinion when it comes to telling I would get people's reaction to the idea of the surgery itself and then I would decide who I could tell and not tell. Good luck to everyone on this incredible journey.
  19. I had been trying to have the gastric bypass since 2003 and a lot happened and now I am at it again and my paperwork has just been sent off for approval so I am praying I hear something soon and my surgery will be in June. I am beyond ready I started this journey again in October of 2013 and I needed 6 months of diet so now I am ready. I am beyond excited.... May I ask for all to help me pray and believe that June is indeed my month. Thank you all I enjoyed reading all of your stories and I can't wait to share min with all of you.
