Broke my scale this morning! LoL just another reminder I need to keep hitting the gym ;o)

can't believe I am STILL waiting on my PCP to write my freakin medical clearance letter. This is getting so frustrating and it hasn't even gone to insurance yet. Guess I have to start making calls tomorrow and getting on people's a$$!! )

Congrats on the weight loss! That's amazing!! Two more classes left...feels like its taking forever lol

Congrats on your approval!!

Congrats on your surgery! Hope you have a speedy recovery! )

Day 5 Post-op and back to work. I'm really surprised how fast this recovery was. Still a bit sore where my biggest incision is but overall feeling good!

Day Four of pre-op diet...no headache but still feel like I'm running at half speed. Not so much tired but its like my brain is foggy! Not the best feeling when I have a 6 page paper due tomorrow!!

Day one on Optifast diet...we'll see how this goes! )

finally got fed up today and drove to my PCP's office, picked up a copy of all my paperwork and the letter then drove it over and dropped it off at my surgeon's office. So hopefully they will submit everything to insurance tomorrow. Now the real waiting game begins!!

First date tonight! What in the world am I thinking trying to date while I still haven't figured this band thing out yet!? Should be interesting! )

Four month bandaversary was on Saturday and I'm down 40 pounds! I couldn't be happier with the decision I made!! I can't wait to see where I will be at my year bandaversary! )

Four weeks out and one more pound down. Wish it was more but I'll be patient )

Four weeks until my 1 year...Goals are to be in the gym 4 days a week and to really pay attention to what I'm eating! I'm not giving myself a pound goal...I think that will only discourage me! Besides if I'm in the gym 4 days a week and really paying attention to what I put in my mouth there is no way I can't lose )

getting ready to head to the hospital ) a little nervous but mostly excited )

Good luck today!! Wishing you a speedy recovery!! )

Good luck tomorrow!! Can't wait to hear how things go! )

Got the call this morning...I'M APPROVED!! YAY!!! March 16th surgery date!! I'm so excited!!

Gotta love hitting the gym hard all week to see a zero loss on the scale. More protein, more water, more movement are the plan this week.

Had a great weekend and a successful first date ) Hoping for more! Also finally down two more pounds. Half way through the 230s on my way to the 220s!

Had my first fill and all I can say is ouch! Not terribly painful but wow it took them about 10 minutes to find the port and that was not a comfortable experience! But 3cc's in and I go back in 6 weeks! Hoping this curbs my hunger!!

Had my post-op appt this morning and graduated to mushies and was cleared to workout. Yay! Also was happy to see I'm down 18 pounds )

had my pre-op final appt today with the surgeon and the nutritionist. I can't believe my surgery is two weeks away! Picked up all my shakes, soups and bars for my pre-op diet which starts on Wednesday. So close now!! )

Half way there...had my bloodwork done and EKG. Now just have to do my UGI and chest xrays next week. This process is taking forever. If I'm lucky I'll be banded by the end of February!!

Half way through day three of pre-op diet. Only issue is I'm feeling a little slow and have a slight headache. BUT I'm not hungry! Hoping I'm almost over the bump and it will be smooth sailing until surgery day )

Happy Easter everyone )
