ummm Chris from New Jersey LOL Soon to hopefuly be moving to Florida so gonna be confusing !

Yeah as long as your not in a thong ! :)

Woohoo !:clap2: Way to go !

Welcome to the thread !!

Have u lost over 40 lbs since 2/27 ?

Not sure about your question but it seems we just had the same virus. I spent the other night vomiting every hour or so myself and then this morning my fiance has the same problem:sick. I was actauly thinking the same thing you are though. When I get banded can something like this affect it?

Just wanted to stop in and update. First off congrats on all the losses so far everyone ! So I have everything completed except some nutritional classes my DR makes you take. I am completing them on the 15th and then I should be getting my date, I cant wait ! Initial visit - done pulminary clearance - done cardiac clearance - done DR neccesity - done Syco clearance - done sleep test - done classes - 15th (new date) Dr says I should get my surgery within the month :clap2:

Updated pulmonary consult = Completed today ! Classes = Scheduled / start this Saturday with 3 ! Man I cant wait so I can get my surgery date ! :clap2: ousooner your looking great bro !!! an inspiration to us all !

All I have to say is DAMN THE MAN ! The Dept of Justice updated the firewalls at work and now I can't access the forums from there anymore !!:faint: 8 hours a day and no access to the forums !!!

Have read all your posts and most seem very odd . don't take it out on other people because they can't answer your question the way you want them to. Have a nice day :peace::gluck:

WOOOHOOOO WE MADE STICKY STATUS !! :clap2::clap2::clap2::scared::peace: :horn::horn::banana:banana :welcomeB::fruitsex:

OK got the ball rolling on some of my progress ! My Dr needs all this before he puts it into the insurance co... Letter of neccesity from my M.D. = Done Today Psych Eval = 3/1/07 pulminary consult = need to get appt still Sleep study = Done Got Results Today ( Soon to be Hose Head ) Cardiac Clearance = 2/28/07 Attend all dumb HAC sessions 5 total = calling tommorow So the ball is now rolling and I cant wait till I get it done Chris

OK call me a newb but what is sliming?:nervous

I prefer to say I was pleasantly plump or big boned as a child . Hated when Mom took me clothes shopping as a young lad in the huskies section LOL. As I hit my teen years I was always big but never had a problem with the ladies though and never realy have had the problem. Yeah there were sometimes certain ones didnt work out and I knew what the reason was but generaly I did well in that area. Like 6 years ago I went from 360 all the way down to 230 and busted my hump to get there. That lasted a whole year , I must say it was a damn great year though LOL. I think all the clubbing and drinking is what put the weight back on. Since 2003 till 2 years ago I floated around 340 untill I quit smoking and bam tack another 30 on to me now:faint:. But like my Doc says I would rather you gain 30 lbs then still be smoking. Man I cant wait to get the Band !

The things I have to look forward to ! I guess the old saying practice makes perfect ! Chew Chew and Chew again !:hungry:

Yeah I am going to call on monday to find out. If not its just a couple days of OT at work to fork the 500$ bill.:tired

umm I think you misread the question

Complete KAMA SUTRA book Upside down roller coaster again Not have to goto a restaurant and ask for a table Not be the Fat Cop at work anymore Go swimming and not get harpooned ! Be able to eat less then my 110 lb woman and be full Sky Dive Join the Reserves Not have my gun belt dig into my side and hurt like hell ! Get healthy Run the local 5 mile run in my town Get my pic on the front page of GQ magazine (ok a bit far fetched):nervous

So I just get a phone call......... Need to lose like 25 lbs before the surgery !!! $#%^ing makes sense lose weight to get weight loss surgery ! :faint: It almost seems like they are pushing for gastric and I have had to tell them No a few times already ! I need to get down to 350 ! damn those people !

Yep I call her Sweet T**s :mad: . Its funny because I got her a Nextel and I forget sometimes and I call her it on the walkie talkie while she is at work and all I hear from her is my boss heard you !! But most of the time I just say YES DEAR ! I think pet names are fun and just good ol teasing of each other.:clap2:

Nah insurance is paying but I don't think they are going to cover the BS classes I have to take first.

Woohooo just had my initial surgeon visit today ! Gave me that big checklist of things I need to do :faint:. I cant believe they make you see some psychologist DR . I asked her why and she says its to see if you want this for cosmetic reasons or health reasons. I was like what do you think ......... BOTH and better sex of course .( Wanna finish that Chinese position book :heh: ) Then there are some darn classes I have to take and thats 500 $ out of pocket ! :cry I guess it will all be worth it in the end. Hoping to get my surgery within the next 2 months.
