  1. In-n-out.. let's see I can't see where you're from but I assume you live in ATL from your username lol... In CA, AZ, NV and UT we have a california based burger company called In-N-Out, they make some of best burgers in the world. Everything is high quility because that's all they do is make burgers and fries, no more no less. But protein style is a burger wrapped in lettuce, no bun. So basically it's just meat, cheese, onion, tomato and lettuce (or pickles, etc if you like) and their "spread" is thousand island based spread. They offer the other ones as well ketchup, mayo, etc.. but a regular In-n-out burger comes Meat, chese, tomato, lettuce w/ spread. You can add raw or grilled onions. They're delicious and technically on my pre-op diet lol

  2. Hey new friend! Thanks for the request, please let me know if you have any questions or just need some encouragement. Hope all is well with your pre-op, you'll be in bandland in no time!

  3. Hey there! Saw you were local to me in PHX. How's everything going for you with your pre-op?

  4. Hey there, just checkin' in on you.. How's everything going in pre-op land? We're rooting for ya!

  5. Quick hello to a new friend! Looking at your pics I'm inspired! Your progress is amazing!

  6. Thank you so much, I feel awesome. Everyday just gets better and better... I had what I though was a set back, cause I gained 15lbs but my dr said it's 15lbs of muscle, my body is smaller and so are my clothes, even though the scale is up. How are things going with you my dear?

  7. Checked your profile out.. Your pics are beautiful (pre & post) and you can REALLY see the difference. Inspiring! :)

  8. I go in on 12/21. Excited and ready to go! Started my pre-op diet, have the final pre-op appointment on the 8th and then it's just a countdown to the big day. I've been going from profile to profile looking for people with a similar build, trying to gauge what my results may look like. If I do as well as you I'll be at goal in no time :)

  9. Hey Dusty! just checkin' in on ya! Hope all went well!

  10. Most gyms have where you sign up to play with people without a partner and they also have leagues, check your city's community centers/city parks/rec.

     

    I'm starting to look for stuff like that now, I want to be as active as possible. lol believe it or not I found stuff like a dodgeball & kickball league for adults lol. Volleyball, softball all of that I'm IN.

  11. Hey new friend! So far so good, day 5, feeling good. Lil' gas pain in my shoulder but other than that doing well. Just be prepared to spend an hour longer than you should at TR for your appointments. The staff is nice and once you're in you're in and out pretty quick, but there's alot of sitting around and waiting. You'll see cheaper by the dozen and that other movie over and over and over again lol.. Other than that no real complaints. The surgeon, Dr. Nirmul is good and has a great personality. Dr. Suhoni-Skinner will be who you see most of the time, she's friendly as well once she warms up to you. I didn't do the consult/seminar with them. I'd attended so many of them over the last 5 yrs I knew what it was and just wanted to proceed. Just stick to it, find out what your insurance requires and you'll be banded in no time! :)

  12. Everything is going really good. Getting fills every two weeks, really starting to feel real restriction. On the 18th I'll be 4 month post-op and even with the 15lb muscle weight gain I had last month I'm still ahead of the curve when it comes to losing, so I'm doing really well with a weightloss around the 60lb mark, I was closer to 80 but I look better and feel better, scale is up but measurements and dress sizes are down :) no complaints here. Hope October hurries for you! If you have any questions feel free to ask!

  13. Thanks so much for the pic comment :) had to glam it up for an event I had on Tuesday.. normally I'm so busy during them there's no time for pics but I was happy to get a few... waiting on the red carpet ones to show the full effects lol <3 my band! :)

  14. Thank you so much! I'm feeling great, guess it's showing on the outside as well!

  15. Just a local hello! I read your post and got excited we're local and having surgery a day apart :) All the best to you!

  16. How's it goin' band buddy? I feel good, just a lil' tender at incisions and very slight gas pain in my left shoulder but other than those minimal issues everything is GOOD! Hope you're doing the same!

  17. Hey there, just stopping by to say Hi and welcome :) And you get extra cool points for having the best b-day ever lol - Have a great day!

  18. Thank you for the message and yes it's through Him and because of Him that all of this is possible. I got this done, mostly so I can do more work for him. I've been blessed with rapid recovery and healing and easy and quick weight loss thus far, it's been 2 weeks as of tomorrow and I'm ASTONISHED at the results. All I can do is PRAISE HIM! Blessings be upon you and yours. It's a pleasure to meet you!

  19. I'm feeling great my new friend.. expecting 100% tomorrow.. how did it go for you? What part of AZ are you in? I used true results scottsdale, you?

  20. lol thanks for checking on me.. I'm good.. just SUPER busy.. I'm in the start of my busy season.. I miss all you guys and your blogs though! I came in tonight for a lil' break and saw your message! Thanks so much! <3

  21. Hey Ms. Lady how's everything going?

  22. Hey there! Thanks for being the first member in the FIT & Fabulous group! :)

  23. Hey new friend! Thanks for the request! In faith all is well with you!

  24. Its going good, I'm not eating as much as I'm supposed to, which is typical. When I'm busy I eat once or twice a day. Today for example I had breakfast (the filling of a breakfast sandwich, left the bread.) and then I had lunch which is that last thing I ate, oh and guess what I ate? THat's right another in-n-out protein style lol. But my weightloss is evident, people keep commenting like WOW so it must be working, even though I haven't weighed myself and OMGoodness, less than a week to go now! SUPER EXCITED!

  25. Hey Ms. Trina, thanks for the request...looked at your progress you look AWESOME!
