that is super fantastic NEWS

good morning b's how are the GIRLS........ its a monday....i got 2 dr appts today (argh) and getting my flu shot .......did you guys get yours yet??

i enjoy all your posts/blogs. hang in thee tabby. takes all kinds to make the world go round. thankfully there is very few A-Holes on this site.

yes you can....one step at a time..

its hard because of the all the pre op requirements from the surgeon (xrays, blood work, ekgs, possible sleep tests, upper gi's etc) but all dr's are different so you may or may not do what i did. tricare was super easy to work with and i have no complaints w/them at all. the only suggestion i have is to stay on top of it with tricare and the dr. have all the t's crossed and the i's dotted....

i am 5 months post op on tuesday..

hey sweetie....i never heard of this and went to mayoclinic.com to check out cocnut oil. here is what i found: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/coconut-oil-and-weight-loss/AN01899 Can coconut oil help me lose weight? Answer from Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D. The few small studies that have looked at coconut oil and weight loss suggest that coconut oil may help reduce waist size, but it doesn't lead to significant weight loss or improved body mass index (BMI). Coconut oil is a tropical oil that's made from the dried fruit (nut) of the coconut palm tree. Proponents say that it contains a healthy type of fatty acid that your body quickly burns for energy. The oil extracted from fresh coconut contains medium chain fatty acids, which aren't stored in adipose tissue. However, coconut oil is high in calories and saturated fat. One tablespoon contains 117 calories and 13.6 grams of fat. Coconut oil has more saturated fat than lard does. Although eating coconut oil in moderation isn't likely to harm your health, it's not likely to help you lose weight either. For successful, long-term weight loss, stick to the basics — an overall healthy-eating plan and exercise.
