Welcome! I just got my surgery date! Wow! I am so pumped! Things are really movin now December 19th Yippie. It is my Christmas present to myself. Man I am so excited right now. I can hardley hold still.

I just got my aproval date and even though I am super excited I am getting nervous now. Nothing in particular just nervous.

I am offical for December 19th! Woo hoo Things are movin now!

Woo hoo that is about 2lbs a week Good for you! Go Chiefs!

She dosent have to tell anyone she works with she is having surgery. With FMLA it is PRIVATE their is no need to tell anyone they work with what is going on. THAT is what I was saying. No need to lie just dont tell co-workers.

Congrats! everyone

WOO HOO Congratulations. Do you know your surgery date?

Thanks Jess, I am inspired by the many of you that are accomplishing something I have wanted for a long time. Now I will be one to inspire too. lol hopefuly.

I dont like the ones that make you buy a whole case. I like the ones where you can buy one at a time. I would rather spend a little money on a few then buy a box and only have one because it was nasty.

I havent had anything like that either. I had private messages on this board but not to my home e-mail....except the ones from the board telling me someone replied to a message.

I also dont think you have to disclose to them what the surgery is for. I dont think you even have to tell work it is for you. All you have to do is tell HR that you need FMLA and they will give you the stuff to fill out. They have no right to ask what it is for. And if HR tells anyone you have the right to sue the company for disclosing personal information. So they wont tell. You have to have papers filled out by your doctor and turned in. But that is all.

I dont think they can do that. I believe your protected under FMLA Family Medical Leave Act. You should be able to have surgery when you need it.

I will start an excercise challenge with you.

You can do it. dont stress just know that your doctor is trying to get you in as quick as possible or they wouldnt start you on the liquid.

Just hug him. That always gets my dad to shut up.

Yeah pending is much better then denied. good way to look at it. Go to sleep. Dont worry about it. It will come. just relax and treat yourself to something good.

I cant wait to be able to shave my legs in the shower with out thinking about passing out. Or from where my legs are so swollen I cant shave some spots. Do swolen legs go down after losing weight?

Unjury is a brand of protein powder they have vanilla and chocolate and unflavored. I personaly think they are the best and like having the unflavored canuse I can add it to anything like pudding and jello or yougart or cottage cheese with out changing the flavor.

I think the vanilla and Choc Unjury are the best. I mixed mine with 1 1/2 cups of milk which I know is more then what they say but it was so so good!

Good luck and just remember working out and excercising increases the feel good feeling.

The way the "gas" pains were explained to me is that is feels like a really bad period. When your cramping and only farting and walking helps. It is that kind of a pain. It hurts but knowing it will go away helps and knowing it is temporary releives my mind. I have never had any type of surgery either but I know if I keep on the path I am on I will be in seveir pain from being over weight. I want to enjoy my life that is why I am having the surgery.

I called my insurance company directly. They were real nice about it and told me that it was still being processed. Then when I called back they were still nice and told me that it was approved and the letter was sent out that day they even offered to fax me a copy if I wanted it sooner then the mail could get it to me. I just figured my Dr office had so much they were doing I didnt want to bug them when I was impatient. If your polite to them they will be polite to you. I work in Customer Service and know how if they can do something they will if they cant they cant nomater what you do.

I was told by my trainer that because I was active in my teens and extremely flexable when I was younger I would be able to get that back because Our bodies remember things. Like we have all heard about the fat cells not going away just shrinking and that they remember being fat. Our Muscles remember doing the active things.
