  1. Sorry to hear about all your problems LaQuitaV. I am getting the realize band as well.. Wish you the best of luck!
  2. Welcome to the Group :confused: :confused:
  3. I am serious love this show and its only been on twice.. I think its awesome that they profile people who are hard workers and also have serious shruggles in their lives. Being one of Hardworker that seems to never get noticed its awesome to see other hardworkers get noticed :confused: Anyone watched the show?
  4. Well said! I agree with you :confused: I agree with the doll part.. You will always have those people in your life that cant seem to find anything postive or always look to put someone down.. Keep your head up and use it as motivation..
  5. They said that he is out of town that week and they didnt realize that until monday.. :confused: They could have done march 6 which would have been a week earlier but i cant do it cause our work schedule is already out for that week and it would have been a pain in my butt to try to get it off.. Maybe March 19 is meant to be...
  6. I am sad :biggrin: My surgery Date got moved... Its now March 19.. Guess the Doctor is out of town March 12.. Nothing like waiting 3 weeks before to tell someone...
  7. Awesome Sounds like a plan
  8. Hiya Welcome and Best of luck! :wink2: I am the same boat of being in sports and such but alway being overweight..
  9. I bought a pair cause I work at a hospital and easily walk 5 miles a day.. they felt good at first but After the 2nd day I felt like they were rotating my ankles inward and they killed my feet.. I think i am going to practice wearing them again, but not all at once like i did at first..
  10. My Surgery Date: March 12 My surgery is in: Pittsburgh, PA My doctor is: Doctor Urbandt. Insurance: PPO Blue Plus (Blue Cross) Seminar date: Never had one First Appt:July 27 (I believe) Insurance Required six month diet Met Surgeon: Every 2 months since July heheh Psych Evaluation: In Nov dont remember the date.. Tests I still need: EKG, Blood work Reason for banding: I am only 26, have been active my whole life (hints the username) but my food intake has always been my problem area and I never feel full.. I am always just feel hungery or Stuffed hehe. Plus I am Paramedic And Volunteer Firefighter, Hope to one day get a paid firefighter/medic job. Plus I have a strong family history of Heart issues and diabetes, Neither of which i want heheh. Concerns: I still I won't feel full, and that I may just be trying to go back to work so soon.. But I am not good for sitting around, I am afraid if i dont take weeks off a work , all i will think about is food.. ( I am only taking 1 1/2 weeks off work (medical field, some bending, no lifting patients at all) and 2 weeks off my Paramedic Job (this is the one i am most worried about cause I do have to lift patients but I do have a partner with me to help lift) BTW I am 5'10, Starting weight was 302, I am now around 275 but still trying to lose, Would love to be under 270 for the surgery.
  11. Hiya :scared2: Good to hear you got your Date... When you getting your Band?
  12. Sure it isnt heheh! :scared2: Hiya Mr Riceguy.. Glad to you are back on the wagon :eek: Best of luck!
  13. I was beyond happy to see red chick go home... i wont miss her... I am annoyed at how long the shows are and how they make you wait..
  14. Awesome good luck
  15. Hiya... How you feeling?
  16. I dont wear pantyhose, i didnt even know people still wore them.. you could wear tights? they have cute ones out there now.. I just lotion my legs really good before i go out.. I think they look better with a little lotion..
  17. hiya Sarah.. Nice to have ya here Hiya Jeanette, I am getting banded in march the 12 to be exact
  18. I dont like the game playing.. I like it to be about WEIGHT LOSS whats it supposed to be.. yeah the money is nice but I want people to to lose weight not gain in their bank accounts.. Plus if you are going to play the game at least admit to it and say you are waterlogging and shit like that...
  19. How amazing... You are an inspiration! I always wanted to be a runner..
  20. I am sorry but i think the red chick has a much worse attitude then the green team did.... How rude of her to basically kick the green team when they were already down and knew they were going home.. She showed her true colors tonight.. I am not joking she really is annoying me i cant wait to see her go home... What comes around always goes around, she will get hers...
  21. I am very annoyed by the red team... I cant stand them... I think i might actually dislike them more then i did the brown team for a few seasons ago... (vicki)
