I was gone for a few days and this place has blown up! What the heck happened? Time for me to dig in a read some posts on this cold, rainy day!

Today I schedule my surgery! Dr. Amit Taggar, Bariatrix FL. Feb. 7 2017!!!!!
-
Took a nice break; back to read some info; I have my first consult/appt next week on the 19th. FInally coming around. On the downside, my insurance company is requiring me to do all the weight management part again, because there wasn't a CONSECUTIVE documented doctor visits. Ugh. I went from March 2016 to Dec 2016; and only Sept was documented in between. But I'm trying to stay positive. It shall pass.

I am anxious and excited. Headed to Vegas on Friday. After 30 years of going there at least twice per year, we have made many friends. I have not seen them nor have they seen me since 10 weeks after surgery. Many don't know and I am somewhat unrecognizable. Looking forward to seeing them, have to decide what I share and what i don't. It will be fun though, it is vegas afterall!

I am down a buck and a quarter as of this morning! That number is not round, but then again, neither am I - any more! 125 has a nice feel to it for some reason. Haha, tomorrow is my three month anniversary since surgery.

Thank you, ladies! @suzzzzz I avoid gambling. There's too much left to chance.

Today was my first day on the lathe for some serious wood cutting since before surgery. I discovered an unintended (or unforeseen) consequence. My smock which keeps the wood chips from going down the inside of my shirt is now too big, and cannot be tightened enough to be snug around my neck. And believe it or not, I have a funny story about this, which involves wood chips, Mrs. LittleBill's underwear, and threats made to my safety. Hundreds of people at demos have heard it.
-
Haha, staple gun. If only you knew how many times we woodworkers suggest that to one another. Then again, maybe you do! In my circle, we are full of wisdom (or something) about the best uses for staples, nails, glues, or other holding methods for things like clothing, wounds, etc. thank you for the laugh.

Saw my nutritionist today and learned that I am not doing as badly as I thought. I am a slow loser but I am losing mostly body fat! I just have to get more water and keep fighting the head hunger.
-
I'll be visiting my mom this week. You know the one that tells me I should lose weight but in the same breath say "Why aren't you eating? Are you sick?" Gotta love her though. ^^
-
Are you my sister? That was probably my biggest problem growing up. Can't you finish that so I don't have to put it away? You really need to do something about your weight you know! Moommmmm!!! Pick one and stick with it! She never did. But, she has been very supportive of my WLS endeavor. I hope your visit goes well, and that the cat relinquishes your tongue while you are there.

@Djmohr, she is a saint, but she does have her limits!

Part of this forum since 2010, now that I'm making an effort to converse, I realize I'm socially inept. I'm the epitome of "the cat's got your tongue." o.O

She was pretty emphatic about that. She got right in my face and said, "There are wood chips in my underwear - AFTER I put them through the laundry! You WILL get a smock and you WILL wear it!" When I tell the whole story, people are rolling in the floor. I finish it up with the admonition that there are only two letters that need to change to go from marital to martial.

Gonna put this little PSA here for your benefit.....while it can provide near immediate support and restoration of function.....duct tape should not ever...ever, be used as a bandage/wrap for a sore titty. Removing that stuff was like a redneck waxing. Long story....but ouch. Damn.

Well, my husband and I have decided there will be NO MX surgery... I'm looking at a surgeon in FL that does the VSG for $7800. I've sent him 2 requests with no response. I'm also looking locally. God is in Control! There;s a reason for it all!

In ONEderland as of today!

I'm making up for lost time in that stall! Down three more pounds in just a couple days.
Pretty soon I'll be able to hide behind a telephone pole. -
The world is ending for us poor Texans. White stuff is falling from the skies and it's COLD. Brrrr!

I never made it to the store, so I had to do it the old fashioned way. Today though... Gym, store, and perhaps some likker.
But I have to start prepping for a demo next week, and I just signed up for another demo in 2 1/2 weeks, so I need to get in the shop and practice some. It is always a bad thing to look stupid in front of a crowd. So likker may be off the table (or under it, however that works).
