  10. Hey Girl! Happy 4th July to you 2!

    Congrats on passing psyh evaluation!! That's another barrier down, but that really does suck about having to pay for the class! I would kick up a fuss aswell...if insurance are paying then they are paying, whats all of this one time fee nonsense. Cant the insurance pay it for you, or couldnt you let the insurance company know that they are trying to pull a fast one??

     

    Did they give you the date for the class yet, or they are making you pay first?

     

    Im doing well, i went for my consultation yesterday and was so pissed when i came outta dere! Said an outright no to the band, told me it would be a waste of his time and money and said that bypass is what i need (see my blog for full story) aint nobody telling me what i need or want except myself...to cut a long story short, i will be self paying. So im just getting things ready for my trip...will be getting it done in europe.

     

    Hope you having a great day!! keep me updated xx

  11. hey girl!! Im am really doing good....i think im also getting bored with all this time on my hands...!! im not used to just sitting at home doing nothing! lol lol But i guess when im busy i complain, that all i wanna do is sit at home lol lol

    Thanks for the friend request! How are ya...? xxxx

  16. Hey girl!

     

    Thanks for checking out my vids hun. I have also thought about the skin issue and to combat it i have been incorporating weights into my exercise routine, this will help build my muscle to bulk my arms out a bit and firm them up. My sister has lost 70 lbs and didnt have excess skin. and she looks great. Im not expecting not to have any excess skin at all...but im gonna try and do my best to do what i can to help it.

  17. Hey Girl!

     

    Was just having a look at the pics on the forum and came across yours. Just wanted to say you look really good!! Well done on your weight loss!!

  18. hey hun!

    Its good to know im not the only ones that goes through it...sometimes i feel to throw teh scales away other times, i just cant help but get on them. I need to learn not to let teh numbers dictate to me. Ive promised my self not to get on teh scale no more than onec a week. I hope that ur insurance gets back to you quickly!! Pre op diet is going ok...getting really fed up of it! but not much longer to go now! this time next week i will be banded!!

     

    stayed tuned for the next episode lol lol

     

    stay blessed xxx

  19. Hey hun! Congrats on getting banded....im not banded yet....i will join you in a few weeks time! Im still on my pre op diet stage...and have lost about 5lbs so far. I will start the protein shakes in just under a week. So i know i will have some big losses then. Hun dont woryy to much about having a few bad things. The main thing is that you stick to what the doc's says and follow through your full liquids/musheies stages etc. I know it can be extra hard with no restriction, but you will be on solids soon.

     

    Every one is different and some people will loose before they get there first fill, but other do gain...and it is totally normal especially as you have no restriction. I find that keeping a log of what you eat helps...and excercise will also help. but dont over do it! You need to let your body heal up first. If your only eating 800/900 cals im sure you will loose. Even when i eat 1500 cals a day i loose weight.

     

    Make sure you getting in plenty of fluids as you dont want to dehyrdate your self.

    XXXX

  20. Hey hun! I was the same, i was hungry by day 5/6 and started ALL of my stages early....even when i was on mushies, i was eating "proper" food, just made sure i chewed it well and it was fine. lol It really made me appreciate food! lol lol

     

    Im doing well hun...have been a lil annoyed the past two weeks because ive stayed the same and havent lost anything, but im still hapy because i didnt put on. I have booked my first fill for 2/3 weeks time. Would be good to feel some kinda restriction xx

  21. Hey hun! Im doing great thanks, im just at work at the moment and my boss has given me so much work to do! I will get on with it soon, but im gonna chill for an hour first! lol lol Im so naughty aint i! lol How is banded life treating you....? Are you on full liquids now?
