  1. Happy 30th Birthday PhatKat01!

  2. 2 years have passed since you registered at VerticalSleeveTalk! Happy 2nd Anniversary Kat82!

  3. hey hows it going? Are you still tring to get insurance to approve your band?

  4. Thanks things are going slow but great! Good luck when u get ur surgery!

  5. How do I approve your friend request?

  6. Hey girl, I started at 255lbs. So far it has been just a little over a year an I have only lost 50 lbs. I must add though that I do not have time to exercise. So all of this is just appetite control. I am sure if I had the time to exercise I would be hitting that goal of 80lbs or more. I am disappointed, but I know I am not using this tool to the full 100% yet. Once I get done with school I plan on hitting the gym. Also, just today I spoke with my Dr. who understands my extremely demanding schedule and has prescribed me Meridia. I will let you know how that goes if it adds to my weight loss and update you as soon as I see some results.

  7. Hey I was just viewing blogs and came across yours. I think wearing weights in your shoes or somewhere would be a great Idea! I worked for an insurance company and they make you jump throught hoops. Read the exclusions in the policy and maybe family history or a 6month diet trial could be considered.

  8. Read my new post i need help!!!!

    I cant believe this!!!

    So I went to my first Dr. visit for the lapband. I finally have insurance to cover me and I find out that I droped some weight that took me from a 41.o BMI to a 39.0 BMI. Yea I am happy to have lost 10 lbs. However, My insurance needs me at 40 BMI. I have been set up for a sleep apnea test but my current co morbidities dont qualify. So I almost have to hope for Sleep apnea or Gain back the EFFIN 10 lbs!! I am so torn I droped the sodas and the sugas and it took me 3 months to lose 10lbs. I am almost disgusted to gain them back. How long will it take me to drop 80 lbs ... years!! What should I do????? My friend was like lets get you some lead weights from the pro bass shop...hahaha AMAZING HUH!:thumbup:
