So I have been pretty down lately about my perspective with my band. I have not been eating the "best" foods. Some sweets here and there. Most days, I can eat too much. Some days I am tight, but it never lasts long. I think this move to SC has messed with my head. I was ROCKIN in Texas, but now I have come to a screeching halt.

To top it all off... I have been trying to get hooked up with a new surgeon here in UPstate, SC to follow me. Today it finally happened. My old Surgeon's office got in touch with them and Dr. Bour accepted me. That is good news, I know. The bad news is that I can't be seen 'till Aug. 8th and there is not an opportunity for a fill until September 8th! That is a LONG time from my last fill in APRIL:eek:

I guess I just need to suck it up and stay the course 'till I can get another fill and make my daily choices to eat healthy and not too much!

I am just venting... Oh yeah... I am STILL fighting Cigna for payment on my surgery! They are pulling any excuse out of their "you know whats" to keep from paying! Anybody have any suggestions?

I am furious with Cigna at this point!:confused::mad::sleep::mad::eek::mad::mad::drool::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

TX - there's a doc here who would take me on as a new patient, but his fills are $700 and I'm not covered! It's ridiculous how much some docs are charging. It's like they know you're in a desperate situation so they'll take you for all you're worth.

The rosy side of the picture is YOU'VE LOST OVER 100 POUNDS!!!! You're way ahead of the game, you're doing great. Your next fill will be here before you know it. Take this time to find something fun to do, like find a new hiking trail or join a biking group. Get active and get out there. You're a November Nymphs hero, don't ya know it?

I have an apt. with my N.P. at work this afternoon. Everybody keep your fingers crossed that she will be open to the idea of preforming my fills. I have a conference call scheduled with the "head nurse" of my old clinic.

FINGERS CROSSED!!!!

You're a November Nymphs hero, don't ya know it?

A hero??? Never thought of myself as a hero...Thanks!
