So I have all my appointments set! What Next? I went to the seminar November 13th I met the surgeon November 17th Got my blood work done November 17th UGI and Psychological November 28th 1 class on December 5th 1 class December 8th and Nutrition December 8th finale class December 13th and I'm waiting to schedule EGD.... This is all my insurance required so I'm guessing after this my doctor can submit everything for approval? What was your requirements? how long was your process? BTW I have NJ BCBS PPO , My Surgeon is Dr. Jooyeun Chung. I'm just trying to time this out so I can have the surgery in January....

So I was thinking of making a WLS Clothing Exchange. I know I was told not to buy any new cloths because I will be losing weight, and I personally would only donate the old ones. So why not pass them to a WLS buddy So what do you guys think about that ???

Thank you all

Thank you that's all I kept saying to myself @@Raymia , Just wait till next year, and how they will be eating their words. People can be soooo rude! The day I met my mother-in-law for the first time while simultaneously hugging me said, "You sure aren't a frail twig like Lisa (his ex) was." I was like...uh, thanks. Even though my journey is just beginning, I now feel better in social situations, knowing that my body is transforming and I will never be as big as they see me now. Its nice knowing, even though they don't realize it, yet.

If it were my family I would... But it was my first time meeting some of his family on a holiday. I didn't want to ruin things so I let it go... People need to realize we can lose weight, but they're stuck with their flaws!

Thank you!!!

Great!!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using the BariatricPal App

I can't wait either because none of them know what I'm doing Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using the BariatricPal App

I'm sure Marvin is charming and knows how to behave like a human being. It's just his family.... It can play out in different ways. When you lose the weight, they won't notice you or they'll make a big fuss and say more stupid things. At least the stupid things will be a new script. If they take the low, ignorant road next year, you can have fun planting wicked seeds. Whisper to one of them, "Did you ask Uncle John's wife if she plans on getting false teeth so that she can enjoy the turkey?" "Does Carla's boyfriend see a dermatologist?" Just kidding, but you can have some fun thinking of ways to start trouble amongst them. At the same time, imagine them naked. Lol yes Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using the BariatricPal App

I've always been the Big girl, and always heard your pretty to be Big thats just as crazy as the other favorite thing ppl tell me. Your pretty to be dark skin.... Like really keep your fake butt complement Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using the BariatricPal App

Only if they knew how rude their statements are... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using the BariatricPal App

Soooo yesterday I met a few of my Fiancée family for the first time. Okay cool but of course the first thing said is..... Marvin Love's those Big Girls (No he only loves me.... He's ex was petite rolls eyes)! Followed by she's Beautiful tho.... What type of Sh!t is that! I'm telling you I'm so tired of hearing this and if I had a dollar for every time a person says this to me I would be rich! Anyway as usual I didn't reply to the ignorant statement but in my head I just wondered what will people say about me once the weight is gone? It's seems to me that weight is the ultimate issue with ppl, and there were so many ppl around I wonder did everyone get a grand announcement when they arrived? Such as ( Oh look here uncle John with his new wife she's missing all her teeth or wow Carla boyfriends here I noticed he still has bad acme...) but no they only see the Big Girl, I can never go unnoticed when I enter the room. 5'5 280 and high heels....... Of course I make heads turn! Just wait I hope things play and I get my January surgery date
