this was one of the hardest things to do (post pic ) I ran from the camera long enough I am going to post every month to make sure I do the right thing. so I 'll see you guys in 4 1/2 weeks

it took my labwork 2 days to come back and my Dr. office called me and let me know the result and also faxed me a copy.

good luck justin and Congrats on your new healthy life

today I was riding my exercise bike I look down and I didn't see it , my tummy I can always look down and count on it looking back but it wasn't there I had to move my boobs back to see the tummy

UHC didn't require the 6 month diet

I learn doing weight watchers that you have to make adjustmentsfor every 20lbs you lose your calories intake change the amount of calories that your body burn on its own changes you have to change up exercise every 3-4 weeks to shock your body again, so make sure you are burning at least 500 more cal. than you are eating .

my pain was only gas pain about a 4-5 after a few gas x I was fine completely normal by day 4

You are going to be approved I have UHC choice plus Texas I was approved in 7 days the key is making sure u don't leave any paperwork out,you are so lucky UHC is one of the easiest insurance companies to deal with, just as long as u have all your paperwork. I have no medical problem BMI was 42 I had no weight history info, no deits just a letter from Dr. stating that I should have this done.... GOOD LUCK with your approval.

yeah I from N.O so its in the blood, do u get your fills at the surgerical center of Fort Worth or with Dr. Snow office, I get my fill Jan 7 cannot wait I have no restriction, but still stay under 1000 cal. a day

my back would hurt so bad if I tried walking on a treadmill and I would be so out of it after only 5 min. but after losing 20lbs on just with the band and pre opt diet in 3 weeks it motivated me to just do it now I have no pain and I actually like it I have so much energy now that I have cleaned the house so much my husband is going crazy from smell bleach and pinesol so I burn the energy exercising
