yes, it is more thick skin then flabby, so i am just going to definately work on that area the most

I havent heard of any place...have you tried going thru your Insurance? If you dont hve any have you applied for medicaid possibly

Thank you!

Thank you! I need to cut out the soft drinks too. So, Vitamin Water Zero is good for you? I guess Im clueless on the "whats good for you" stuff.

Congrats on your surgery! Mine is in 26 days. he question i keep asking everyone is 5 days off enough after surgery to go back to work. I have a desk job, so i dont do any lifting really. Good luck to your weight loss!

My surgery is 06/09/10 by WLSC (Dr. Thomas Clark) I have had 1 other surgery in my lifetime, and the thought of it alone just scares me. Today is my 1st day as a Blogger, adn I have read many on here. this seems to be a good way to go pre and post-op. I keep questioning myself and if I really will be successful with taking my 287 pounds down to my goal of 150. Will i get the energy that I dont feel i have now? Getting your mind right is the hardest part of this process and i feel like Im fighting with myself, that in some ways I guess sounds crazy. I am about to turn 30 next week, and I still want to be that outgoing/fun girl..but think I need to stay away from my partying friends, so that i dont want to "have a drink". I did stop smoking about 3 months ago, and I knew I had to do it for the surgery, and I have been successful with that, but I do think about it all the time. I hope that this decision I am making to have this is a good one, and that it helps me get myself to where I want to look and feel!:smile:

When do you go back to work? i have my surgery on 06/09/10 (wednesday) and only took off the rest of the week to go back to work tht following Monday.

Im nervous too about this surgery, but also very excited at the same time for a life change for the 30's!

I am having the lapband surgery on 06/09/10. I initially wanted the gastric but changed my mind at the last minute. Im excited and nervous. Im going thru the WLSC with Dr. Clark. Im looking for more local support buddies in the area. I am in Newport News. I have my surgery on a Wednesday, and only took off the rest of that week for work, do you think I will be able to go back to work that following Monday?
