I completed all 12 and logs. Now I am waiting for the Doctor of the program to review files on Thursday, and hopefully no later than Monday get the authorization number for Pacific Bariatric to have the one day consult in San Diego. It should take about two and half weeks for everything and hopefully surgery soon after.

Heyyyyyyyy!!!!!. I have truly been thinking of you, but I can't get use to the new site. I don't know how to get to my profile. Ummmm, duh, I think Im here. Lol.

I am good. Excited, Nervous, Thinking. All of that & some. How are you doing, feeling, coming along, losing, etc? How is post-op holding you up.

Hi Pamela

Dropping to say hello. How is everything going for you?

droppiN by to say hey and checking on your status. Hope you are doing well.

I am feeling really good. Today seemed to be hard though. I am thinking too much about spinach salad with grilled chicken, avocados and a very good tasty dressing. I am wrong for feeling this way? However, I would not dare eat this. I am also feeling guilty, because I have not walked or exercised. I don't feel up to it now. Maybe I will start Sunday.

Heyyy!!! I had no idea you had surgery. Where have I been???? I rcvd your email, but could not respond to where it came from; so I came to your profile.

Glad to read you are doing well. What day did you have surgery? Take it easy, ok. Get that strength back before getting to those highways.

We all haven't heard from you. I hope you are well and doing as expected since the day of your procedure. Prayers are with you.

SO glad you're pulling through. Take care of yourself. Know that a long post is not necessary. We all were concerned because we haven't heard from you. When you're ready is when we'll know what your first and second week was like. You and your body knows whats best. Stay rested, hydrated and protein friendly.

the best day yet. my consultation was great with all three appts. my surgeon will be dr. taller. he spoke at the seminar i attended. i got an "a" with everyone. i will have the sleeve procedure. dr. taller expects my weightloss to be 150 or more because i have more water weight at 117% than fat at 73%. i now wait for the 21 working days to contact about the surgery date.

passing through. hoping things are great and getting smoother by the day.

Hey Sleeve4Me

I have been soooo busy. I have not rcvd the surgery date yet. I had to take a Doppler test first to be sure I don't have blood clots because of the edema situation. I hope you are doing well. However, my chart is with the scheduler once the Doppler results are rcvd.

Yes, It keeps me focused.

Minor breakdown today. Some heavy emotion came over me today. I wanted some ice cream today. Preferrable the ice cream cookie at chik-a-fila. I had a craving for it and I don't know where that came from. My daughter was already going there and I told her to get me one. She was gone 10 mintues and I called her and said "I gotta be strong" and started ballin. I mean my eyes were red. I don't know If I needed to cry, or I wanted that sweet just for today; one time. And I know it...

Have you gotten all your supplies and vitamins, you will need when you come home? I'm praying for you.

Hey I'm Krys in Cali .. I read your post. Too funny. We have to go through it. My time is coming soon. Will be praying for you on the 21st.

Need support. Need to stay focus to help myself in my continued jourbey.

No thank you. I am patiently waiting for the date they have available for me. I am eager to have surgery, but my patience is more settle than anxious.

Ok, I returned to work last week. I did really well. But this week I am overly hungry. It seems every hour and half I am starving. I drink a lot of water, but it seems I am missing something. Should I be hungry as if I have not eaten in days.

DDs Discounts: If you ever heard of this store, I've found it to be the best fo rme right now. Because of the changes in size, its cheaper to buy when Im ready.

I'm not a water drinker, but I've always drink more and more during the summer months. Usually I have to add lemons or cucumber, but not in the summer. Straight on the rocks.

I think of the wonderful times my Husband & I had and have. Yesterday while he was out, he called home to check in, which is not unusual. In our conversation he tells me how much he loves me & proud he is of me making a decision that will obviously make me happier inside. He says for me to be sure I am doing this for me & not for him or anyone else. And then he walks in the bedroom w/roses.

I am down 18.5 pounds and sooooo very ecstatic with my progress. Not as fast as others, but I am me. Yesterday I went to meet with Ana at Kaiser Bellflowers' satellite office and when I got on the scale and it read 293.5, it took so much out of me not to run down the hall screaming of joy. To see 293 to me is I will never see 300's again. I don't have a scale at home, which is wonde...

Okay....Today I rcvd my box today. Of what, you ask?!?!?!?! (wink) ZUMBA ZUMBA ZUMBA...I ordered it from Amazon. I ordered it used, but it was actually new and the latest version that has been on the info-mericals recently. I am soooo excited. I've been going to the local recreation center to Zumba, and I will miss them. However, I will visit a few times a month. Can't wait to Zumba and blow this roof off, lolololol. Krys

Hey Sleeve

Not too good. I have an appt tomorrow with the surgeons. Im sort of disappointed at the same time. My surgeon had so many other appts that I am just seeing someone tmrw (not my surgeon) in Anaheim. I was told to begin the diet given to me and found out the other day from Kaiser that I should follow their paln at www.kp.org/misg. So I feel I am on the right track now. I dont thin...

Question. Why is it when you decide to do something for your yourself, the phone rings and its everyone that lives in the house, is not in the house; wondering what I am doing, COME ON PEOPLE!!!!!! I bought the Zumba series to be at home more and when I'm alone, I'm actually not. Is it wrong for me to turn my phone off while I'm Zumba'ng my weight off?
