My paperwork was submitted to Aerna last Friday and I'm DYING to hear something!!!

I have a friend selling them and it's fine if you want to look a little firmer fir a big event or something, but there's no permanent change. You have to keep buying them and they aren't cheap!!

And you just use it on your skin dry? Does it hurt?

Hi! I'm looking for blender suggestions. Ideally I'd like something relatively inexpensive ($60 or less) that isn't ginormous. I'll mainly use it for shakes and purée post-op. I thought buying a blender would be pretty simple, but 'Geez Louise!', so many choices!!

We know what you meant! Hope you feel better.

Seriously, it's ALL I can think of!!!

The hubs & I are going to renew our vows for our 10 year (Feb 2014). Someplace warm, and I'm already looking at cute, SHORT wedding dress!!

I'm tempted to buy some knee high boots. Yea baby!!

I breezed by a 6 years ago! I'll be very happy at a 14 bc then I can shop in regular stores.

I've been eating well daily but I AM doing my "Farewell Tour of Food" at my favorite restaurants! LOL

My Ninja Kitchen System Pulse and my Smoothie Bible should be waiting for me when I get home! I'm way too excited about this. I'm such a nerd!

Let's all hope we get quick answers and they're all YES!!!!

What a great idea about creating bins of different sizes! Stealing!

I SO tempted to buy a cute dress for our beach trip next summer! I've been browsing online stores and cannot WAIT to enjoy shopping again. Although I have lots of clothes from weights gone by, I too am going to buy something as motivation!

Dang it!! "if I stay fat..." Clumsy fingers today!

Damned!! LOL

It's famed if you do, famed if you don't. If instant fat, I'm persecuted; if I have WLS (a 2nd chance to make better choices), I'm also persecuted. So I say EFF 'em!!!

I feel you! My paper work was submitted on Fruday and I'm already calling Aetna about it! Very cool that you got your surgery date so soon though!!

Well, Aetna has the paperwork from my surgeon, it's all "peniding" and now the agonizing wait is ON in earnest. GEEZ, I think I'll go crazy waiting!!!!!!

I call mine my fanny pack. If I could put a zipper on that mofo, I wouldn't need a purse!! My friend calls hers The food Baby. LOL

LOL

I think DeterminedGirl was hoping the OP would listen to her inner voice by saying that. That's how I read it anyway.

Or pulling the seatbelt ALL the way out it'll fit? I hate riding in my husband's truck bc it locks up on me. LOL

But the OP is not obligated to reveal her very personal choice to "further the cause". If a person is comfortable doing so, then by all means press on, but she shouldn't be made to feel wrong or bad or ashamed if her personal choice. I was very secretive and then VERY open about my struggles with infertility. It was emotional and excruciatingly personal and physically challenging and while I speak feely of it NOW, I chose to keep it to myself while in the middle of treatment. I'm taking a similar approach to WLS. There is no "wrong" decision here and our feelings, whatever they may be, are not to be judged. It was rude of the OP's cousin to ask, just like its rude for people to ask if my twins are "natural". (Yes, a stranger actually asked me that once. I replied, "Yes, I grew them myself.")

How about putting on shirt after shirt trying to find one long enough to cover my stomach?!
