  1. I'm hoping to have surgery in December too! And, we're the same age Congrats!
  2. They have something like that I"mDown.... at Walmart.. 17 pieces for about the same price.. that's what I was thinking about getting .
  3. It's a personal decision.... I am hoping for a mid December date. I want to start the new year off right... new year... new me!
  4. I know! I'm just impatient! Thank you
  5. I am so jealous of those with a date. I am hoping my stuff was submitted. As of Thursday my surgeons office was waiting on one paper from the nutritionist. I called the nutritionist and they said they were faxing it over. So here's to hoping. I called the insurance company. But their updating their system so they couldn't tell me anything.... I'm going to call again Monday to see
  6. Welcome I was all about the band until I further researched VSG

  12. Shopping ANYWHERE for clothes... Plus size clothes are always so expensive! Wearing a bracelet/watch comfortably! Weighing less than my husband! Not ALWAYS worrying that I'm the biggest person in the room.
  13. For some reason, I remember a paper my nut gave me saying to stay away from Coconut stuff.... now I have to go find it to see what it says lol
  14. I talked to the lady who I'm working with @ my surgeon's office... she said my nutritionist report thingy should be in on Monday. And, then it all will be submitted to insurance. and, gave me an appointment to meet with my doctor. yay! i'm starting to get nervous i won't get approved... or i wont get approved in time (December) if I can't get it done in December I'll have to wait until April for Spring Break. the wait now is just killing me.. I can't imagine waiting longer.
