  1. Thank you MovinForward!! Ive told my 2 BFFs... never telling my family... haven't decided if I should tell my boyfriend (he's out of the country and we won't see each other at least until Christmas)
  2. So I live in Asia and I'm far away from my family. I'm scheduled for my sleeve surgery on the 19th... I haven't told ANYONE what I'm doing... I have a week off from work, so I just told my friends I'm going to another city to visit a friend. I'm worried though that if something happens during the surgery then they will wonder why I didn't tell them... Did anyone else on here go it alone?? Any advice? Thanks!!
  3. I was scheduled for the 19th but got it moved up to the 14th ... Seeing the post about the anemia was a great reminder to pop a couple of my iron pills, but I really feel sorry for you ASBgirl!!!, but don't worry, anemia is usually an easily diagnosed and fixed thing... mine is from my Ventolin asthma inhalers... BTW: if they give you an iron supplement, make sure not to take it within 1 hour of consuming anything with caffeine or milk (they both bond with the iron and prevent absorption) Good Luck!!!!
  4. Awesome!! Congrats!! I have exactly 1 week to go!! ditto on the scared and nervous part!
  5. egg whites are my friend... 1 egg white = 19 calories (vs the 90 in a full egg) and 4 grams of protein... so 4 or 5 of these puppies are the perfect omelet :)

  6. Thanks for all of the great info and congrats on your sprout!!! :)

  7. Hope your surgery went well~!!

  22. Thanks ladies!!! @DJackson...LOL about the phone/ipod @juliarh... thanks!! WalMart is a great idea!! I just looked and I can't believe you can buy a bra for $10... amazing!!! I will order a couple each of a few sizes going down...LOL about the shrinkage
  23. Hi ladies, I have a question... I'm doing my surgery next week and I need to order some bras for the future. I've already lost 66 pounds and my bras are so loose already. So my question is, what have you experienced with losing cup sizes??? I know this is a personal question, but I cant even begin to guess, and it will take about 2 months for my stuff to arrive here (Korea). I'm currently wearing a 44DD.. while the cup size hasn't changed, it's just too loose around my chest. Thanks for any and all advice in advance!!!!
  24. Thanks!!!!! I can't wait!!!
  25. Thanks Beadingnurse!! I'm so very very excited!!! only 11 days to go!!!!
