I know! I had a breast reduction 9 years ago. I hope I don't have to pay to have them inflated! LOL!

Congrats O2BThinAgain! I have Anthem. I had my doctor appts on 11/5 and was approved on 11/8. My surgery was on 12/3. It was well worth it. I believe that Anthem is realizing it is cheaper for the folks to have the surgery and get healthy than to pay down the road for the health problems associated with obesity.

Where the heck are my boobs going? :eek: I just went and got new bras last night. I was a 42DDD and now I am a 40DD. I excited about the weight loss but why are they going away? UGH! :cool:

i do 30 minutes cardio about 3-5 a week and 2-3 weight training a week.

I weigh every morning after using the bathroom and prior to my shower so I can see how different foods affect me.

Everyone knows who knows me. I'm a very out there person.

i had my fill on thursday. today i was able to eat a little scrambled eggs. yeah.

Good question. That's sorta what my doctor said too.

It's sad that authors and writers think they need foul language to be funny. I won't buy that book. Too bad books don't have the V-Chip like TVs.

I'm so excited. I hit my first goal of 25 pounds! YEAH! :smile::tongue::smile::smile::smile:

i love unjury chocolate with ice, carnation dry milk, and water. yummie. sometimes i make it thick like a wendy's frost other times i make it thinner like a shake. mmmm. good.

OH! I also lost 2 more pounds!! IT IS SO WORTH IT!

well, i had my fill. wow, that's a big needle. sorry i scare anyone but it is and you should know. after the second time sticking me with it, i passed out while he was rootin' around for my port which by the way was tilted. great. so they moved me to a gurney and then did it. wow. that's better. i told my doctor that i want to lay down from now on. no more standing for me at fill time!

I will be in my 30's for about 9 more months. :-)

I have my first fill today. I am so glad. I get so hungry at times. I can't wait. The appt is at 1:15 today. Yeah!

i had one today for lunch. it was good and yummie.

I went through something similar. I don't care if people know but I want me to be the one to tell them. I told my brother and his wife. I requested they not tell the rest of the family (my real dad and his family). Well, he told our cousin who I have not spoken to in 8 years! Well, that cousin called me out of the blue telling me that my brother told him about my surgery. Ugh. Well, my brother sucks. He is a dork.

i lost 10 lbs with the pre-surgery diet. i only needed to loose 5. i then gained 11 pounds in the hospital due to the fluids they pumped in me during the hospital stay. i have lost about 22 pounds so far. yeah!

I love to exercise now. I still have my days that I don't want to but I try to mix it up. I was going to go for a walk yesterday but I roller skated with the kids last night for about 90 minutes last night at a church function. Wow! I wasn't able to do that two months ago. I love it. I am so glad I did this!

Just watch for sodium and fats. They should be okay in moderation, just like everything else.

beef was scary for me. i made a wicky homemade beef stew and didn't chew enough for the meat. it got stuck. let's just say major OUCH and YUCK!

you don't want to drink after eating for about 30 minutes to 45 minutes. think of it this way, if you drink after eating, it will make the food go down faster, you will then feel hungry sooner.

allow yourself the potato. it won't hurt you every now and then. i had one with a small salad the other day. yum.

it's great. i love it!

I take wal-mart's version of flintstone chewables. they work great for me.
