Between preop testing and surgery I have spent close to $600. That was only because I have a $200 copay for the hospital, the actual surgery was covered at 100%.

The first week I had the same problem, I use the chewables from Bariatric Advantage, I noticed if I took them on an empty stomach that's when I would have to go. So now I make sure I have something/anything before taking them

I would be pissed and definitely pursue it. My office fax comes into our emails!!!! So all other 8 employees and 2 managers would've read it!
You didn't do anything wrong and if they can't follow a simple request from a patient they shouldn't be working there

I try to find a balance if I bake potatoes for them I will bake me a sweet potatoe. I purchased several aluminum pans for my meat as I do not use the same seasoning on my food. I usually cook steamed veggies in which we can all eat. It has become part of the daily routine and not hard to balance at all. Thankfully my family does not eat a lot of fried foods.

The one thing I cant wait to do is tuck my shirt into my jeans. Something as simple as that but I havent done it in almost 30 years. I always feel sloppy with shirt untucked. I cant wait to have a belly small enough where it looks good with my shirt tucked in.

We are going to Scotland in summer 2017, and I am looking forward to fitting in my airplane seat with wiggle room, and being able to walk around the city and explore. I'm excited to be able to buy something from the shops to wear, rather than sticking to purses and scarves because nothing else will fit me. I'm looking forward to family photos as well, ones that I will like and not cringe at.

" data-cite="Shell " data-ipsquote-timestamp="1459547840"> I'm looking forward to getting married I've delayed it due to not wanting to be married overweight I don't want to look at my wedding photos and be sad basically il get married when I'm at goal however long that takes. I'm looking forward to loving the face staring back at me in the mirror. I'm looking forward to wearing jeans and more stylish clothes off the rack over the sack type dresses I'm wearing now that cost me over $300 a piece. I'm looking forward to hopefully not getting chaffing in summer. And hopefully I'm looking forward to not thinking about food so much and being hungry all the time food has controlled my life for so long I want to be free.
I'm also looking forward to having more energy to do things with my fiancé
like bush walks bike riding we are off to Cambodia and Vietnam again for Xmas and I want to be able to sit on the back of his motorbike and not feel like I'm being stared at and go to all the temples and walk around with ease see and do more

Believe it or not I haven't had a "wedding" because of my weight 13 years and counting. I'm glad he is understanding and supportive!

I'm already at goal now, but the main things I was looking forward to once I was a normal weight were riding amusement park rides and starting running again. I have done both since getting to goal and could not be happier. In fact, I'm spending a week at Dollywood the week after next and I'm running in my first half marathon on April 24th!

I live in the city and take the subway, so I'm looking forward to not having to twist sideways to fit through the turnstiles.
Shopping for clothes at the prices I want to pay and the styles I want to wear instead of whatever Lane Bryant feels like selling and charging. Multiple options and comparison shopping will actually be possible!
Not getting winded walking uphill.
Being able to run for the bus/train when I see it coming instead of letting it go and waiting an extra ten minutes.
Not being the biggest person in lab and having to say, "Behind you, excuse me, I'm sorry!" when I'm trying to get to the fume hood or sink.

Sky diving
Not paying $50 for a plain black polo just because I shop at the Fat Man's Shop
Travel - Up until recently, I've never had the urge. For some reason now tho, the thought appeals...
Being stared at because I'm so f***ing awesome, not because I'm so f***ing fat!!!
I'm gonna have a crack at a Segway..
I'm also gonna dress like a f***ing dandy!!! I'm just gonna buy clothes that I think are GOLD!!
Jeans - Ok, I've got a pair and I'm ready to slip them on. I've just gotta find a reason to go out...
I'll add more as I think of them...
There are some more 'personal' ones that I may add later as well...
See ya!!

Be able to keep up with my friends!
Amusement park!
Not "spilling" over the edge of the chair!

Being able to run and play with my daughter. Going to the zoo and actually being a it to go through the whole thing instead if finding places to rest while my husband takes her around. Being able to walk more than a block without feeling like I'm going to literally break in half. Looking forward to what life has to offer

I am excited to finally take family pictures! My eldest is 13 and although all the kids (3) have taken portraits together, and alone we don't have one with me and their father in it.
This popped in my head today and I've been smiling another thing to jot down on my list of reasons why to do this and stay committed!
