Hey Trina,

Good for you!! You gotta take care of yourself, girl. I am doing well, I have placed myself on a high pro, lo fat, lo carb, hi fiber diet. And, well it's going. I am mainly trying to accomplish 2 things, one, get used to eating every 2 hours and two, flush my body of all the bad stuff I have been eating! I am getting excited, only 19 more days!!! 10/14 here I come! By the way, I agree with gg your children are adorable and the little one is a TRIP! She needs to be in a commercial LOL!

Have fun at the reunion...!

You are right, it is time to move on. That MD has major issues for real. He needs to give up WLS as a specialty and/or go into counseling to figure how to best deal with his issues.

Hello,

I understand, the hair loss is pretty daunting. But I have heard if you stick with the vitamin regime, the loss will be minimal. I have had to cut my hair because I permed it and dyed it a reddish blonde. I don't have to tell you...THAT made it fall out. LOL!!

Oh, I am not a nutritionist, so check with your doctor first! I know, I sound like a commercial.

Hi Cheryl! My surgedry date is 10/14

I am eating a low fat, low carb, high protein, high fiber diet. Which means the following:

Low fat: chicken, fish (if you like it, i don't) grilled, baked or broiled, low fat yogurt, low fat cottage cheese, fat free milk or soy milk

High protein: egg beaters, 2 reg eggs with cheese per week, one serving of beef per week, pork loin

High fiber: apples, pears, broccoli, spinach, garden salad, tomatoes and cukes

That is about it, I am trying to keep it simple. I eat until I am full, every 2-3 hours. Of course lots of water, some tea and a must for me is a cup of coffee everyday. Let me know when you surgery is.

Trina!

I cannot believe that doctor was so rude. It did not seem as though he listened to you at all. At this point, I would just change physicians. You went through a major surgery and you should have lost more by now. Moreover, he should realize that people are different and each of us have our own needs. Your body may need an eleven cc fill to be sucessful, I may need 3cc's! He should understand that more than anyone. I just don't get him. Like I said, at this point, I would just go somewhere else.

The PA student...persona non grata! (her comments mean nothing)

I am sorry you are having a difficult time. It is time for you to take control over the situation and make other decisions!

Good Luck today at the doctor. Let him know what your concerns are!!

I am definately going to check out your albums.

Hello!

How are you doing? Did Ike get you bad?? I hope not!

Let us know. I have a date 10/14/08!! How is your progress going?

Hello NFaith!

congrats on getting a date! I wonder how much money we have spent on all of those diets!!! Not to mention the clothes! Good Luck and keep me posted...Sue (bimbabe)

Hello!

Thanks for reading my blog. I did the 6 month md supervised diet, what a joke!!! I really don't know why the insurance wants that, obviously I tried dieting in the past!!!! I wish you the best and keep me posted.

Yes, I am soo happy! I really just want to get it done!!! I am going to do a sort of "detox" diet, which I will begin on 09/22. I chose that date because my birthday is 10/15 and my anniversary is 10/30, so I have a couple of weeks to celebrate and then go into detox.

Hello!

You have done so well so far!! I am finally going to have my surgery on 10/14/08, the day before my birthday!!

Hey GG,

I have a date!!!! 10/14/2008!!!!! I need to catch up with your Vlogs, I am waaaaayyyy behind!

Congratulations! I wish you well! I have a date 10/14...the day before my birthday!

Yes, they do. The groups meet the 3rd Wed. of each month in a meeting room in the birthing center.

Hi! I live in Lithonia. My surgeon is Dr. Scott Steinberg at Dekalb Medical Center.

Welcome!!

Hey Gurl!

I am sitting here going crazy waiting for the nurse to call me with a date.

Hopefully, you will have a date soon. You and your future hubby look so happy! I have to admit, I NEVER thought I would get married, but then I was blessed with a sweet man for a husband. I wish the same for you.

GG!

I am going so CrAzYYYYY!!! It is 1445 here and I have not heard a thing. Pray for me I am sooooooooooooo anxious. I just want to know the date!!!

Where are you in the process?

No band yet, I have decided to have RNY. Feel free to check out my blog. My dad grew up in south providence, he lived on Benefit Street...or is it Benedict Street??

I lived on Evergreen St. between camp and ivy, i think. I moved away in 1986, after I finished RIC. How about you??

Hi Jaynelle!

Helloooo!

Yes, you are more than welcomed to come to see us in Atlanta, I do not know how to cook soul food, as I am from the north and I am American Indian. BUT my hubby makes wonderful ribs, greens and grits! I can make you the BEST meatballs! Please let us know, you have a home here!!
