What about Jammin July Jewels.... My date is July 12th. I'm excited.

Okay so I'm officially excited that ALL of my friends are supporting me. I feel soo much better that I don't have to hide this from them.

Thank yu crsti

Good luck on your recovery! My date is for July 12th. Yes!

Me too! im nervous and excited

Yes i had this problem i was so stressed out because no one gave an answer as quick as i wanted that i begin doing bad i had lost 10lbs then gained 7 back lol so yea..atleast im still doing zumba class on saturdays. But anyway they approved me when i wasn't even thinking about it. that is what shocked me, and hopefully you will be approved.

EXACTLY that's why I only told a few persons, because I feel like they not in my shoes, they didn't try to get on a damn rollercoaster and couldn't because the bar wouldn't go down. That shit is embarrassing. I feel like I should do what makes me feel good about myself, the only person that have to live with me is me for the rest of my life, not theirs.

Hey guys, my date is July 12th. I find out about my pre op diet date soon. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I only told the friends that support me. Some people think i'm taking the lazy way out, but I don't think so.

I thought they weren't going to approve me but they did!! I'm excited, I have my 3 hour class about the surgery June 29th at 8:30am. I'm excited and scared. I believe im making the right decision.

I started my Zumba classes last saturday. When I first did it my calves were killing me for two days. It was fun and I didn't quit, I kept going. I did it today and I got a little used to it, my calves feel like bats lol. My favorite song in Zumba class is Pusha Pusha by Axe..I Love that dance and I need to know by Marc Anthony has always been my favorites. Anyway, I am preparing myself towards a better me. I don't know when the surgery will be, but when I find out I will let you guys know.:smile::tongue::thumbup::tongue::smile2::tongue::w00t:

Okay first of all, I have only told a limited amount of people that I was getting the LAP-BAND®: Mom, Three close friends, Two close co-workers and now my Supervisor knows only because I have to turn in my FMLA for whenever I get my surgery, but my supervisor supports me because she was thinking of getting it too. Now my best friend that I live with was saying that when people get these surgeries they look sick and it's lazy, and this was said during the time were all out to eat with her cousin, and her cousin is agreeing with her and everything, so I didn't say anything at all. Matter of fact I changed my mailing address so my Weight Loss Surgery mail can be sent to my Post Office box because I don't want her trying to change my decision or giving me any negative feedback. I decided I wasn't telling anyone else, I am going to get it, and if she see that i'm losing weight...whatever. Because I lost 10 lbs by cutting out fried and sweet products and exercising about 3 to 4 times a week..and I have been doing this for 4 weeks now going on. So I think I am taking this LAP-BAND® seriously, because I realize it's a tool and I realize I have to change my lifestyle. :thumbup:

:thumbup: Thanks Molly...I am really trying. I just came from the gym tonight. I am motivated.

So I need my mom and fam more than anything in my life at this time, due to my grandma passing (she died in Dec), here in virginia is where I live and my grandma raised me, we were always together, every weekend, every other day, we were so close..my mom live in PA because she is a Navy Recruiter...I am so used not being able to be with her because she in the military and its a habit you get used to..but I miss her all the time and my little sister.Anyway I thought it would be a good idea to see her after my surgery, and i can recover there with her you know...but she told me she didn't want me to drive she want me to catch the plane :thumbup: I get nervous and I feel like I can't breath everytime I have to do this, because I have to crowd the DAMN SEAT and people want to breath and look at me like i have a disease, it's so heart breaking , it is. And I know some people can relate...I just wish...I don't know. Anywho, I will be with my mom for about 2 to 3 weeks because I believe I can get that much time off from work.Im trying to be strong guys, I just...it bothers me.

How it feels just to go into a forever 21 or New York Express....I hate going in with my friends and just buying accessories, because I can't fit shit else. I just want to be able to have fun and not feel miserable of why I can't do this or that. I love myself, but it's like damn I can't do shit.

Okay so my mother lives in another state and she always suggest the plane for me to come. I told her I was planning to come to her, after my surgery so that she can help me with my process. I made up an excuse of why I don't want to ride the airplane. I said because I was scared, which has been my lie for years. The real reason is because I can't fit comfortably in the seat, and the person next to me always gets up quickly when there is a seat available..that hurts so bad, I've cried on a flight before because I had to ask for an extended belt. And I lied about not liking roller coasters....I love them...but a few years ago when I went to Bush Gardens after standing in that long ass line in the hot freaking sun....i couldn't fit in the seat. Everyone watched me get up and walk away. I cried then too. I was so embarrassed. I'm ready to enjoy my life. If you can relate, or have related please add a comment. Thanks. :thumbup:

@Michigan I will let you know as soon as I find out @Afro i have to make an appointment with a psychologist and my last month with my nutrionist is on April 30th. We shall see.

I was approved guys. I'm nervous and anxious and scared...I don't know. I honestly didn't think it would be approved so soon. What should I expect?
