  1. Today I'm going to wear a dress for the first time in a really long time :) I'm actually happy about it! LOL!

  2. Today I was actually a WILLING participant in 2 games of kick ball. My students were so excited for me to play... :) I <3 my sleeve a little more each day.

  3. I'm glad you got the insurance approval. I hope your doctor will give you approval TOO!
  4. I have a friend who SWEARS by Spanx. I'm not so sure... Tonight, I have a pair on to give them a try.

    My Birthday after the Sleeve

    I was almost 3 months post op on my birthday, and I had the same issue. It was hard, but I managed as I'm sure you will to! One of the things I do now when I'm out to eat is find somewhere that will let you share the plate for a small fee. Then you and hub can share dinner... and that alone is sweet! And, I just try to talk more and eat slower! good luck
  6. On April 17th, my friend Kristen Russell and I will once again be walking the March for the Animals. The walk is a 1.5 mile walk that helps the SPCA! If anyone is interested in donating my link is http://www.marchfortheanimals.kintera.org/mrskoubik! No amount is too small! :) Thank you.

    Seriously - how much do you love eggface?!?!?

    I have heard such great things...I need to check out . thanks for the reminder!
  12. W1D2 of C25K is done :) I finished a little over a mile this time. And, I even got over my fear of doing it in public, and completed it at the gym :)

  13. My surgeon is Dr. Christopher You in Baltimore, Maryland at Franklin Square. He is an AMAZING doctor and I have a lot of respect for him!

    Anybody else?

    I can't say if it's normal or not... but I haven't experienced it!
  15. I was happy he talked about WLS... but I think it SUCKED that it ONLY talked about Lapband. I feel like the sleeve is HARDLY ever mentioned.... and people NEVER get to hear ALL sides of WLS. However, I do think they did a good job at staying positive about going the WLS route. I kept hearing ITS A TOOL! IT needs to be worked. Rather than what I expected... bashing people who decide to go through WLS

    When can I have SALAD??

    I don't remember the exact time. Make sure you feel comfortable enough to try it. I tried it for the first time last weekend. I an 3 months post op... and it just didn't feel right. My stomach gurgled funny. I was so looking forward to it too!

    WTF do I wear to this wedding?!

    JCPenney's had some CUTE dresses on clearance. There was on I fell in LOVE with! I was looking online! good luck! I feel you on being discouraged with nothing to wear. I love losing weight but it REALLY sucks when you have an event you want to look REALLY good for and you cant find any thing that "looks" right!

    Bagels

    I'd suggest the bagel things first. They're easy. Then, try the real deal! I ate a bagel the other day and felt bad immediately after

    Losing weight before surgery

    While this time you ARE losing, will you be able to maintain that loss? For me, I could NEVER maintain a loss for long. So I needed a more permanent solution.
