  1. I know. I wish insurance would pay for that too. I'm so excited for you! I don't think I will get to get sleeved until after Christmas. I have two more months of diet and excerise to go. =(

  2. That sounds great! I need to get signed up for that class too.

  3. Has there been an update on her condition?

    Top 10 Reasons

    10. I don't want to have heart disease. 9. I don't want High Blood Pressure. 8. I want my children to say hey that's my mom, not ask me to pick them up from school around back. 7. I want to look good in cloths again. 6. I want to ride my horses and not feel sorry for them having to carry all my weight around. 5. I want to be able to breathe again. 4. I want to not sweat walking into work. 3. I want to look professional again. 2. I want to feel about me, like my husband feels about me. 1. I would like to not feel this...... When I walk through the Mall with my 6'3" tall, very well built, hansom, cowboy husband, (here in Texas, the perfect man) and great looking women look at us and wonder how I got this man to be with me. Vain of me, no. It just hurts.[/font]
  5. Went to the phys. yesterday. Didn't seem real hard to convince her that I needed the sleeve. Basically told me it was a great tool and I'd love it. =) That was easy.lol Have you got your date yet?

    Stomach Scope

    That's a great idea! Thanks for your help.
  7. Hi everyone, My name is Julie and I have started the process to have my sleeve done. I went in for my weight-in appointment and to go through all of my medical history yesterday. I got some good news and some bad news...... good news is I lost 6lbs since Monday not even trying to lose it........ Bad news is they are going to do a stomach scope on Tuesday because of my past history with peptic ulcer disease. Has anyone ever had this done? If so, If they find something will this be a determining factor on whether or not they will do the sleeve?
  8. Congrats!!!!! I;m going to the doctor today for my weigh-in. I'm super excited to get the ball rolling! I hope to be where you are soon!!

    Some good news today

    I'm in the US, Texas to be exact. I hope I get the job too. This was my second interview for the position so it's down to me another person.

    Some good news today

    I had my first appointment with my GP to talk about the WLS today. However, I was extremely nervous about the appointment and the fact that I had a second interview for another job today didn't help the fact that my BP was 120/100. The appointment went well so I really had nothing to worry about but it was another big step in the direction to my sleeve. =0) I have gone to my interview and it went well, so again, worrying for nothing. Stress is my worst enemy. So now I'm ready to meet with my surgeon on Wednesday for my weight-in. super excited.
  11. I know. I called the insurance today because I'm scared they are gonna tell me they don't pay. My weight-in with Dr. Mason is on Wednesday. Keep in touch with me. It's nice to have someone here in Aggieland to talk to.

    Game. ON. (3 days post-op)

    Hi Ms Lisa, I think it depends on your doctor. Mine said he would put me on a South Beach diet. So I would just ask your doctor.
  13. Sorry, I haven't quite got this thing figured out yet. I keep send mail to myself.lol

  14. Sorry, I haven't quite got this thing figured out yet. I keep

    I'm sure you'll do great! Maybe once you get the 60-70% off you'll feel good enough to do all of the excerise to get the rest off. =) Stay positive. I have lost 6 lbs just by reading the info on this web site and thinking about what I put in my mouth. So if I can do that, I can't wait to get the sleeve. I need to loss at least 90. But I'm shooting for 105.

  16. Wow. It went pretty fast then. I was hoping to have it done by Christmas. But, If not, I will be happy anyway. I just want to get it done ASAP. If you don't mind me asking.... How much do you have to lose?

  17. I am so sorry for you that your brother would treat you like that. My family besides my husband and my two beautiful girls are all behind me and they know this is good for me. Now back to my husband and girls...... It's the entire life change with my husband. Smaller amounts of food...the money I'm going to spend out of my pocket...If I get skinny I might start looking for someone else….(by the way, I think that if I stay this size he might start looking for someone else),things like that....my girls say they love me big or small no matter but they have gotten use to me this size. They are scared of the unknown. I just try to reassure them that I will be fine and in the long run I can get back to riding horses again and playing softball with them and living again. No only that but, I want to be health when one day they (my girls) tell me I'm gonna be a grandmother so I will be able to keep up with my grandbaby. I hate that your brother talked to you like that but I'm sure he'll get over being mad once he sees the results of the WLS. Good luck to you and I hope you take yourself into consideration...They aren't the ones toting around the extra weight that you have to.

    I need some Help please!

    I work for Texas A&M here in Texas and my BCBS cover's it. It has just started so you may want to check again just to be sure. I don't know why the state you are in would make a difference.
