omg i'm such a dork i will work out to just about anything I listen to the Bee Gees sometimes lmao..

I have read on here that sometimes patients that have a significant weight loss end up having to have their tubing shortened because it rubs the phrenic nerve or the diaphram and irritates it. Do you have a lot of sagging skin that can also cause back aches.

Nov 16th for me folks

i have bcbs anthem and live in california mine was bmi of 40 with no comorbidities or bmi of 35 with 2 comorbidities you can call customer service and ask if your plan covers WLS and what the requirements are?

Enell makes great sports bras theyre a little pricey but oh soo worth it. For bottoms I love Nikes modern fit yoga pants they run about 60 bucks a pair and are definetly woth it. They are made out of drifit fabric which wicks away sweat.

I'm still kinda numb I am trying not to think about it too much or I will freak myself out lol. My kids are 9,7 and 2 years old. I will let you know how it goes.

Hi Neener I am beeing banded 2 days before you and I'm a 30 year old mom of 3 amazing kiddos 2 boys 1 girl. I have a great hubby that was a little resistant at first but is supportive now. Looking forward to keeping in touch with you guys.

OMG i feel like i wrote this post my best friend had GB about 4 years ago and she lost about 200lbs and now that I'm beeing banded I only have 70 lbs to loose and she has become a hater. She was one of the first people i told i had been approved. So she took it upon herself to send out a mass text message out, to all our friends and family that read " Emily is being banded she is going to give me a run for my money" I was like WTF was that all about. Everyone was like whats her problem? she didnt seem to think that she was beeing a hater lol.. But this is life I guess I will have to deal with it and drop these pounds.

are you guys sure you dont have lactose intolerances that can be part of your digestive issues. Specially if you are still on a liquid diet.

congrats on your decision I'm also beeing banded in November 16th for me KIT

Hi Elfiepoo I am not bended yet my date is 11-16 and I was on the fence for the longest time .Think about how you will be more active like you used to be and that will help you ease your mind.

thank you and same to you

Thats odd that they would hurt your back the one i posted has no boning in it so its super comfortable.

I have one of these they are the best, a little pricey but they really hold you in, they make you look super smooth and are great for your posture. Not sure if I'm going to be able to wear it right after surgery since mine is really snug lol LIPOEXPRESS

There are a whole lot of people on this board who have cheated on their post op diet. Now that said it doesnt make it ok. You knew what you were signing up for so be strong and keep the liquids coming.

It means that the psychologist or social worker has o.ked you to have surgery.

Muscle Milk ready to drink Lite are really good they come in a ton of flavors they are a little pricy but you can get them on ebay for cheap

You prpbrably need to have that hiatal hernia repaired that will help with the indigestion issues you are having.

I know exactly how you feel i was on the fence for a long time. I just got a call last friday that told me I was approved. And suddenly I am certain that this is what i want to do.

I can only offer some advise. Please see your doctor and get your band loosened. beeing too tight can lead to complications. I binge sometimes but it normally occures when i just dont eat enough. Your body feels deprived and wants some nourishment. I am not banded just yet and I'm hoping the band will help me resolve some of these issues.

you might want to get in to see your doctor having pain is not normal.. get reevaluated tell him all your symptoms good luck..

Ok so i got a call from the scheduled yesterday and I'm having surgery Nov 16th I'm stooked!!!

thanks guys yeah I'm scheduled for Nov 16th good luck to you also

Well I say it's better to be pissed off than pissed on lol!! I know what you mean when I'm hungry watch out bitch on wheels..

OMG i thought that i was the only fanatical one. I even thought about having my cable disconected in order to not be able to watch im online and its still on in the backround sad i know lolz.. I'm pretty active now but watch too much food porn lolz!!
