  1. I found a doctor out of network! As Maya Angelou said "Nothing will work unless you do". I have been on this journey for years! I had to get up and do something! It will work out!
  2. I wouldn't take Christmas pictures but next year we are mailing cards with pictures and all!!!
  3. I would try that doctor I sent to you! I am traveling 3 1/2 hours to have my surgery! Sometimes you have to do a little extra as you know it all won't just fall into your lap!
  4. I live in the south so I don't know what is close and what is not! Just google a bariatric doctor near your area! Good Luck and God Bless you!
  5. Try this doctor! I am praying that this is your breakthrough! Lord, let this broken hearted person know that you love her and that you will help her! Give her a peace and never let anyone tell her, she is not a beautiful person! In Jesus Name I pray....Amen
  6. I keep watching the video to see if I would see myself differently!! Nope!!! Still hard to watch! ????
  7. I am traveling 3 hours as well!
  8. If they don't share their medical history with you don't share yours with them! Just tell them I am doing me, now you do you!
  9. I feel your pain! I have a 18 yr old that is a football player and a 10 yr old that plays basketball! I hear the same thing and I have done the same as you by making them my top priority! I have decided to be happy with my decision and have the story so they can enjoy me better! It is hard trying to get up and down those bleachers and stadium step fat and uncomfortable! For once I am making me the top priority!!!
  10. If you were talking to me 268!
  11. I want to just lay in the bed until the 8th and spend the night in the hospital to already be there on the 9th! If I had low self esteem and didn't know who I am in Christ that would have sent me into a depression! I am borderline in a depression right now! I just thank God that he is making it possible for the surgery to happen! *Please no one get offended I am not saying Christians don't get depressed cause we do*
  12. @@queensleever05 Yes, I am having surgery February 9th!
  13. I saw a clip of myself on a video at church and could not believe that HUGE lady was me!!!! I cried all day and really need to have surgery immediately!!! I can NOT believe I let it get this out of hand! When I look into the mirror I don't look that large! ????

  17. I, too am having outpatient surgery! I was nervous but my breast reduction was outpatient! I think it will be fine! I will have to stay at a hotel and was told the travel home will be fine to just stop every hour and walk for 5 minutes! Good luck! I have mine in February will keep you updated!
  18. What brand did you all purchase in protein shakes? Also, did you all get them already made or did you all get the powder?
