I went to see my surgeon Monday 3/1. He was great, he answered all my questions. I'm just playing the waiting game now waiting on insurance approval. I started exercising on my lunch break basically using the treadmill or walking for 15 mins. I have started doing the whole last meal thing for lunch I say this is the last time I will have onion rings or any other fried food. Oh well I'm trying to post some pics but its not working any ideas will help.

I can't pass up a bargain I have bought 2 goal dresses from target and oldnavy for about $6 on clearance. I can't wait!!!!

I don't have a date yet, but I have tried to change my habits. I eat smaller meals for lunch such as lean cusines or a small salad. For dinner I eat a normal meal but less fried foods than I'm used to. I may start just having a protein shake for breakfast. This is my birthday weekend and it also will be my last weekend of eating just anything. I want to start changing now so my body just doesnt go into shock

I am writing this with a heavy heart and just need to get somethings off my mind. I meet with my surgeon on Monday 3/1/10, the day after my 29th birthday. I am in no way concerned about the surgery, at this point it's a must in order to be around for my son. What's been on my mind the most is seeing myself THIN, I have been overweight my entire life. No I have not been the 337 lbs I am now but even at 12 I was 180 lbs. Nobody I know really understands being overweight, for them weight is something that hinders them from getting that new dress or fitting into some slacks. I or no one I know has HAD to have WLS. Currently when I tell family/friends they ask me are you sure? When I get asked that I want to tell them WLS is not elective surgery for overweight people its a way for us to live!!! Oh well wish me luck on Monday I have UHC insurance and I'm told they move pretty fast with their approvals.

OMG!!!! I have been thinking about getting banded for 2 yrs now and I just KNEW the band was for me. I go to my seminar Tusesday 1/26/ I was on the Band site also and saw the letters VSG. Now I am not sure can't wait until Tuesdsay to get more info.
