Friend turned Jerk

Made friend on here that turned out to be a jerk...makes me sad in my heart. I know there are jerks everywhere online but really? A weight loss support site?!?   There is just no reason.

Guess who is down 17lbs pre-surgery?

I have one more appt before I can apply for approval, I am down 17lbs which I am proud of, and now I am getting....   "can't you just keep doing it on your own?"     Uh. No. Or I would have a LONG time ago. I don't know how to make others understand.   L.

My Belly

Hehe - here is my belly 1mo post-op and 1 day post-fill. There are 7 cuts.   As an extra bonus, you get to see the elastic marks from my bra and jeans. And NO - my left boob is NOT purple/bruised...just must be the lighting.   Not too shabby huh?? I show them off like battle scars to anyone that will look. Dr. asked me if I'd come to support group and show them - SUUURRREEE!

First Fill

First fill at my first follow up. Easy Schmeasy. Although, I am glad my port incision is still numb because if I had had to FEEL what I SAW out of the corner of my eye I would have passed out. lol   So, down 37lbs from when this all started last fall.

First Stuck

So - for a split second I forgot I had a new belly and shoved a piece of deli ham in my mouth. Chewed about 2 times and swallowed as I hurried to do something. Then I remembered and was like, "noooooooo!" Even asked hubby to reach down and pull it out!!   OMG. I thought my stomach was going to rip thru my chest like an alien. The pain was excruciating and the retching was horrible.   After about 30 min I made it onto chat and Crimmy and the folks told me to walk, jump up and down, and put my arms in the air. So I did - around the block. Neighbors were LOVING that I am sure.   But it worked!! I am still alive and no ham came UP so I am assuming it went DOWN. I am told to have pineapple juice and papaya enzyme on hand for next time.   PLEASE don't let there be a next time!!   Thanks everyone!!

Half way to Goal!

I am down 51 lbs....49 more to go. Dr. was astounded at my progress.   This is about when I start to get cocky and blow everything.

Sick

Are you freaking kidding me? I haven't eaten a thing (okay - I did suck one potato chip until it disintegrated) for 9 days and now I am sick.   Horrible sore throat. Am I going to have to postpone my surgery that is scheduled for Wednesday?? I am fixin to snap a hard trip.   :smile::sneaky::sad::cursing::sneaky::sad:

Questions to ask

EMMI code to watch video on Lapband.com? Realize vs Lapband? Program fee? Fill costs and coverage? Corrective surgery costs and coverage? Restaurant card? Single vs multiple incision? Bronchitis?
