DeezJeanz

Gl Atl, it can b disheartening, Ik, but just hang in there n keep calling!

Yes ma'am, I've completed everything! Gl next week. Im w u on the one night thing bc I reaaly do.t want to b bringn in the New year on a hospital bed, so prayerfullly, we will only b there up until New Year's:). What are ur stats? If ud rather pm me its fine but mine are 5'3, 232, yuck!

Gl to all. I've been going threw this since June 28, 2013. After doing all that I was supposed to do, I had to wait another month due to military furlow. As aggravated as I was, a family situation arose and it made me appreciate the furlow. Well, we try again, and bc of gov shut down, I was then put on a waiting list bc they decided to do only emergency type surgeries or as they called it, those non electives. So 2014 Jan/Feb was my call date. I pouted, ate, had lost weight but regained. So another month passes and while shoppn n Walmart, I get a call. It was the nurse who says, uve been bumped up to preop 12/13/13, woohoo, Friday the 13th, as if!! Anyways, I was still happy, surgery date the 20th!! Well I literally danced a small jig in the sewing dept, lol. I get home, not 5' after telling my hubby, he hands me the phone, same nurse sayn sorry the docs can't do surgery then bc of holidays, I'm sooo sorry!! So now I'm devastated but she says, still com on the 13th but we will do surgery on the 30th. No dance, but I smiled and prayed that this will b the date! So as for now, I'm a Dec girl with fingers crossed, if not I'll b bck to cry yall a river. Thx for listening, gl December sleevers!

Happy birthday!!! I concur, 46 looks fabulous n healthy, beautiful, gorgeous and just plain ole happy!! Congrats on ur transformation thus far! Keep up the awesome work and Ty 4 sharing. Can't wait until my turn in Dec, Lord willing!

Loving reading this thread, thx for starting it. As for me, I am a massage therapist and my business name was Deez2Hands as a play on the words "these 2 hands". So I decided that when I started this journey, I'd choose my name, Dee Dee, plus one of my biggest goals for after the surgery. Ive not worn a pair of jeans since 1999 only rubber waisted pants! And my wish is to be able to wear a single digit pair of jeans one-day, hence the name, DeezJeanz!! And I guarantee I'll b posting a pic in " these jeans" the very day it happens. Finally got a surgery date, Lord willing, Dec 30th!! Woohoo been a long journey:))

U look amazn nd thx for payn it forward bc pics are worth a thousand words when one is tryn to make a decision about this journey. Good luck nd God bless:)

Well Dear, we can b sad together. Ive been doing this since June this yr, jumpn threw all their dumb hoops nd then some. So i went today for my 2nd surgeons visit for a date of surgery but to find out that now theres a waitn list from dec to jan!! i told the doc, i give up!!

Soooo, what was the point bhind the op's, ?confession?, on this forum? cuz Lord knows if surgery is gonna make me blurt out random confessions on a wls forum, i might need to reconsider my surgical options ツ

Hey Shelli, i agree. I will b at a mtf, which i pray will b end of oct, but i wonder as well bc the reason its takn me from june of this yr up until now, is bc of the furlow (sp) at least thats what the nut said. Now that ive been stalled by the nut for my 3rd visit to her, now i have to deal w this frkn shut down. Makes me wonder if som1's trying to tell me somthn, geesh!!! gl to u. I go c surgeon on the 11th, i ll ask him for sure:/ Prayerfully we wont get affected or theyll opn bck up soon. Again, gl2u!

Ok, im not sleeved yet but i go to the surgeon next week for a date, which from my calculations, and Lord willing, my surgery should b around the end of oct. So w that saud, im like the previous poster who said she wont cook this yr. But the goid thing is, i wont have too! my cousin bought a new house nd wanted us to com eat w them this yr, so wooohooo, my family still gets a gr8 meal but i wont have to suffer threw cookn it;)) God is good, so once its here, i will still b n some stage of the surgey where i cudn possibly eat had i did cook. So all seems to b workn out, depending on my surgeon:/ gla
