  6. there are some seriously passive aggressive people posting on some of these boards....seriously, grow the hell up and if you can't say anything nice (kind, helpful, encouraging, etc.) don't say anything at all!

      I agree.... I try to tell myself that they just have a strong opinionated personality....and they don't really mean it the way it comes across.

      i am snarky and have very strong opinions but if what i want to say is not going to benefit anyone i will just keep my mouth shut...or bitch about it to my husband....poor guy! lol

      there is nothing worse then kicking a person when they are down...that is NOT what support is all about...yes you dont want to condone actions that are not favorable, but seriously people in glass houses are NOT supposed to throw stones!!! lol

  7. so many of my meds give me dry mouth so i am drinking water ALL DAY LONG...and i consume 60-80 oz of water a day....i can't imagine not being able to drink like i do now after surgery

      You will after surgery be able to build up to that again without a problem.

      You need to consume that much water on a daily basis after surgery.

      You also will probably decrease your meds as you progress on your path to healthier and smaller you.

      Don't worry about it everything will fall into place.

      Don't feel bad, you aren't alone and I ate way more than a slice..........after I received my approval letter.

    2. Kiki2004

      Kiki2004

  10. well, i called the insurance company, told them what center i want to use and they are sending out my paperwork...still trying to wrap my head around all of this...there is so much information and only so many hours in a day!

  11. reading some of these posts is freaking me out...hubby just asked if i am ready to do this...said no...he asked me again 3 times...each time i gave the same answer....then i told him to ask me again in 6 months (my ins waiting period)

      I know it can daunting at first. There's so much info and everyone has a different experience. I was nervous all the way up until I got my surgery date now I can't wait!

      If you are not ready for any possibility then you are not ready. You need to be on board 110% because this is a big thing and not the easy way out as some stupid people say....This will be your life for the rest of your life...Make sure it is right for you. Research is what you need to do and lots of it! okay :)
