    ldydrgnkpr got a reaction from Oopsseedaisy in Experts Please Help: How do you know your sleeve is "full"?   
    My signal to STOP is a hiccup and or my nose will run. Those are my stop indicators. I don't try to force the food in. I have learned that when I get the first hiccup I put down the fork/spoon. This is all by trial and error for everyone. No two people will be able to gage the sense of being full the same. You will find what works for you. Good luck

    ldydrgnkpr got a reaction from plzsleeveme in UHC covers Plastics...   
    UPDATE......
    I spoke with a Representive from UHC and Yes Breast lift and thigh lift are a covered procedure. (However brachioplasty is not) When accompanied by documentation. So Now to schedule an appointment. Not before I have another visit with my PCP to check in and have more documentation. (More is sometimes better) Then we will see where this goes. I may have to seek several opinions, don't want to be tied to just one. If anyone has UHC and has any addtional info please share.
    Just wanted to share what I have found out.
    Thanks,

    ldydrgnkpr got a reaction from DreamLife36 in OMG!!!!! No longer considered OBESE!!!!!   
    Well let me start by saying that today I did something that a year ago I would never have attempted. (I started taking zumba classes a month ago.) I did my first zumbathon today for Susan Koman. For two hours in the Florida sun I danced my jiggly butt off. I would like to add that I am slap wore out. Now I have been going to class twice a week and it has paid off. (Drum roll please) YAY!!!!! I am no longer obese!!!!! Just OVERWEIGHT!!!!!! I never thought I would see that!!!! I will keep doing what I'm doing to get to goal!!!! Anyone thinking about trying zumba, Go for it!!! I am one that has two left feet, but I move and keep up with everyone else. I may end up going right when everyone else is going left. It's all good here. You will be amazed at how you transform your body. I measured my waist this morning, It is a 29!!!!!! Six weeks ago it was a 33. I am so stoked!!!! So wonderful to see the numbers go down!!!
    Hope everyone has a stellar weekend!!!!!

    ldydrgnkpr got a reaction from To Be Thin 2011 in Hitting 60 lb mark and hair falling out in HANDFULS!   
    I agree Biotin 5000 is what I am taking twice a day. I also use Nutri-Ox Shampoo and conditioner. I have noticed my loss becoming less and less. I'm 6 months out. It hasn't completley stopped but it has cut the loss more than in half. Went from hand fulls to just enough to barely cover the drain in the shower. But again everyone is different. I will continue to take the Biotin and using the shampoo and conditioner. Good luck!
