  1. I go back on the 20th for the GI scan and barium swallow. They wont submit to insurance until I finish all the tests and pay all my bills first.... My Doc is smart.... He wants his cash up front! lol.

  2. Good luck on your surgery! I hope it goes great!

    What's the point?

    Kimo, I have not been banded yet, I am working on that but.... I think the whole point to the band is to HELP you lose the weight and more importantly, HELP you keep it off. By having the band, you CANT go back to eating the same amount you used to because you will get sick. It is a nice reminder to stick with it.... Also, Even if you could continue eating all the junk food you love, there is a difference between being thin and being healthy. One does not equal the other.
  7. Hey Lellow! I hope your surgery went well and that you start feeling back to normal soon! Your pics look great by the way!

  8. Wow! Our stories are SOOOO similar! I lost 70 lbs with Weight Watchers and I slowly packed it all back on! I am also a newly wed and waiting for my surgery! Your pics look great!

  9. Whhoooooo Hoooooo.... You are almost done!!! It sounds like you got a bit of work to do for the paper but that is ok. You will be fine!

    It also sounds like you have a good bit of restriction going.... How many fills have you had??

  10. I hope your banding went great and you are feeling better!

  11. Haha! I was reading your blog and I agree about the Barium! I have Crohn's and have had Barium swallow and it is the most God Awful stuff! I think it tastes like gummy bears and asprin....

  12. I love you pictures and your puppies! I have two of my own who are my children!!

  13. You look great! I love the pics.... Keep it up!

  14. That's great! Lets you learn it on your own. That is probably beneficial in the long run... trial and error and all

    This was January. I think I look very different in the face now!

    Your face does look much different! It is fantastic.... I thought it was funny that you are wearing the same earings as the first face pic!
  16. Well, the weight will start comming off. your body could just be slowing down a bit!

    Does your post-op plan stink? Some people's doctors seem to be more strict than others...

  17. I totally agree. I though the whole Caprica/Baltar seem in the future was a little strange. I really an excited for the new series although I don't really know what to expect. I am a bit sad that I dont get to come home on Fridays with a new episode waiting for me!

    I hope that you get to that "sweet spot" soon. I know how frustrating it can be. I have got a good friend that had the band put in in Dec. And she just doesn't feel like she is getting the resriction she needs.

    I am looking forward to it ( hopefully) sometime in the future. I joke with my husband saying I will be a quick learner bc I dont want to get sick.

  18. I ADDEDDDD YOU!!!!! GOOF BALL!!! How are things going???

  19. I am doing really well.... I am waiting for a slot to open up for a consult with the Doctor I want to go to. That seems like a lot to have in your band. You must need more though because you dont feel that restriction! What did you think about the series final?

  20. I am SO glad that you are feeling better! How long are you on a post Op Diet?

  21. It is so exciting to talk to another Fan!!! My husband thinks I am insane... How is your post-banding experience going?

  22. That is super Exciting! The Doc I am thinking about is SUPER STRICT and seems to be a stickler for diets.... I think he is going to try to torture me..... You may have only lost 2.5 lbs because you lost so much the week before. Sometimes your body decides to rebel... It is unfortunate but I bet it will be better next week!

  23. Woot! That is so exciting! When do you get to switch to decent food? I think that is gonna be the hardest part for me, being on a liquid or mushie diet... Did you weigh in Yet?

  24. Hey There! I was just pokin around on here and saw your Fabulous pictures! You look great so far! How are you feeling?

    I also saw the Frackin' comment below... Is that a battlestar Gallactica fan I see? :)

  25. I hope your surgery went well and you are feeling better soon!
