    July 14th!

    hello!!! I also had my surgery on the 14th after a year of denials and appeals... How is it going??? I was wondering how have you been feeling. I have been feeling fine and feeling much like myself again but I've been struggling with what seems like spasms in my esophagus... I guess it must be gasses, but I'm not sure. I hVe my follow up tomorrow and will definitely ask but was wondering if other people feel the same. Good luck!I'm feeling better everyday! Today I have been experiencing a lot of pain in my left shoulder. I think it's gas.

    Shoulder pains...help!

    I took a stool softener last night. I wonder if that could have caused this? Maybe it made me gassy and it traveled up there.

  11. My insurance is making me do 8 weekly calls as the last step for approval. They told me that I have to record every item that I put in my mouth. She also said gnat she expects me to lose weight during this. Has anyone else ever been through this?
  12. I am just beginning this process. Have a seminar scheduled this month and an appointment with my PCP. Any tips to speed the process up?! I'm excited! A girl I work with had it down about 9 months ago and she's down over 100 pounds!

  14. 1. People saying "you have such a pretty face" 2. Chub rub 3. Being scared to sit in a chair 4. Getting to restaurants first just in case you can't fit in the seat. 5. Painties rolling down over your roll. 6. The only thing you can buy from Victoria Secrets is perfume and lotion. 7. Standing in the back during pictures. 8. Being embarrassed to be "on top" 9. Everyone at work asking what your ordering for lunch 10. Cute "big girl" clothes are hard to find I could go on and on. I'm hoping to have my surgery in January! Say a prayer for me!

    I had to attend a seminar yesterday about all the surgeries offered. This is a must in order for the surgeon to speak with you. I had to schedule it back in MAY!! My PCP wrote me a letter of approval. I'm getting things done step-by-step. I'm getting more excited everyday!!
