Hi Klandi,

Looks like you got this thread going again. My scale says I've lost 24lbs. to date. I'm like sunnyside, ready and anxious for my first fill. I've got this far on will power and excersise, I'm ready for a little help from my band! :cursing: By the way, where's Nunya? Never heard of it.

lotzasunshin - I see you had your surgery by Dr. K, how did that go? He sure is alot cheaper, but what about follow up care and where do you have to go for fills? I paid a lot more than that, but all follow up and fills are included. I'm interested because my husband wants it done also.

He is a lot cheaper, but a GREAT doctor! I actually go back to him for fills, It is cheaper than getting them here, everyone wants hundreds of dollars for a few drops of saline. So I pay $150 for a plane ticket, and then $15 for fills at Dr.K's office. LOVE IT!!! Don't know if a plane ticket would be as cheap for you guys in Georgia. But definitely call around you and ask how much fills would be. Make sure to get it in writing though, because I had a bad experience with the office telling me one thing and getting a big unexpected bill. So, it might be more cost effective to go to Denver, unless the fills out there would be cheaper. Good luck to your DH, and Congratz on your great weight loss! So close to goal! I can't wait until I am there!

Glad to see this thread moving again. :sad_smile:

I just moved to a new ward, I felt bad because we've left early two sunday's in a row... the first time I was sick, the second time my husband was sick. This week the RS pres and bishop both came by. I hope they don't think we're inactive. LOL :tongue: I wanna be like, I SWEAR we come!

Isn't that annoying?! I lived in Kansas City, MO several years ago, and I'm pretty sure that at a youth conference we did a service project at the Liberty Stake Center.

Our stake center is about 2.25 hours away. It's quite a trip to get there. I really feel for those in our branch who have Stake Callings and have to travel there frequently.

I'm wondering if Nunya is the beginning of Nunyabusiness or something similar. :wink_smile: I've also never heard of Nunya, Utah.

One of the places we're looking at relocating to is the Kansas City area. We'll have to see if that pans out. I might need doctor recommendations.

Well I'm still here. Life is kind of frustrating right now. My Dad passed away 2 months ago, and I am trying to figure out how to deal with it. Plus my DH has been having lot of health troubles lately. And my weight loss has slowed a TON because of all the stress. I don't think I am getting enough calories, cuz I just can't get things to go down.

Sorry to dump all that, but you asked! :thumbup:

I'm doing well. Struggling to get any more weight off, but I'm down more than 100, so I'm not complaining. I may go for a fill in August. Life is good. I'm running a 5K on the 4th of July. It feels so great to be able to do that.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
