i'm 4 years out and still miss my turkey sandwichs.

i've had several surgeries since hitting the green zone and have never had an unfil or any complications from not getting one done.

If those don't work, look for a gas relief called Phazime. It comes in a pink or purple box. The strips didn't work for me but the Phazime was wonderful. Worked in one dose.

i've also had "gallbladder attacks" years after it was removed.

i have blue cross and they paid for a breast lift but it had to include a reduction which was fine with me.

i'm almost 4 years out and i have a can of dr pepper every morning. they don't want you drinking the pop because it is empty calories.

i never tried to get insurance to pay for my TT but they are paying for a breast agmentation on july 3rd. can't wait.

the thing that hurt the most after my tt was the stomach muscles that were tightened. make sure you use a pillow to get up and keep on your compression garment. that really helps.

Good Luck!

tere1985, the video online is new. they were holding seminars back when i went in 08. Online would have been so much easier. they were awesome there though.

I didn't go through Mt Sinai but I did go to Day One Health which is also downtown. 900 N Michigan Av. Why are you going for eight weeks? Is it like a class? I went to one seminar and then made the appointment to meet the surgeon.

thanks. you'll get there, your so close. i know in my mind, there is a huge difference between 161 and 159

i waited a little over a year from my band date. i also lost most of my weight in the first year. my goal is 150 but the lowest i can get is 155. once i have my thigh lift, i will make it.

vickieolv-I was self pay but only saw the dr once for the consultation and then not again until surgery.

i'm with ya on the no will power. love me some choclate. my neighbor and i did start walking this week so hopefully i will keep at it. i'll bike more when the weather changes. Throwing out the popper is a big step. i'll take baby steps for now and only get it out during movie night.
