That movie with John Travolta will be out by then-"Be Cool" it looks fun and I think it is PG13-Ok so Ill bring my SO instead of dumping him along the freeway since others will be there:)

good for you that you can do this-Im hesitant to even look at me much less let others-very cool-let us see em when your done-I like art and especially nekkid art:o)

I was lower bmi and went to mexico with cash-they will do it

ok I am in again-the other thing got rescheduled so Im going to come up with my hubby and stay the night in Dallas-make a weekend of it-we like going to the drivein up in that area-so count me in!!!Will you be emailing us directions?This will be fun-are we bringing our spouses or flyin solo?Im not opposed to leaving him on the side of the road just need to know:o)

dang I just noticed the date conflicts with another engagement-oh well have fun everyone and hope to meet some of you soon.

oh and my vote was for a horror movie

I was a self pay-went to dr kuri in tijuana and paid 9k-paid with our savings and now my ebay fund is depleted-lol.I was banded on April 27th

I was lucky and didnt have to eat a special diet before surgery-it was AFTER for me that sucked and I honestly didnt do so well so Im of no help-good luck.

you could do what alot of us selfpayers did and go to Mexico where it was a bit cheaper-I payed $9000-try this company-I know you said you had bad credit but doesnt hurt to try-they seem like a good finance option-medicredit 1-800-963-6334

congrats to you-hope all goes well.

dont let it stress you too much-perhaps you could go walking each time you get worked up-walking does a world of good for clearing your head and losing the pounds

Im 4 weeks in and I exercise bike 60 minutes a day-could do more but I HATE the bike-Im a treadmill girl but my treadmill died and cant afford the one I want right now so will have to make do with bike-I do it during a show I like-Its already too hot and humid for me to go outside and walk-I hate the humidity-lol.Anyway it just depends on you and how you feel but maybe do some walking.

Liz Claiborne sells great shorts in her plus size Liz collection-just the right length and cut without flaring-I love her clothes.

congrats-welcome to the club

its just the way it is tho-in society they see overweight people as lazy-itll never change-period.May hate the fact but it is what it is.Sucks eh?

Ive told no one but my fiancee,my 2 best friends and 1 sister who is my biggest confidant-she never tells anything-lol.My 17 year old daughter doesnt even know...and she lives in the house!!!!Im a very private person and never tell people anything and the 2 friends have no ties to my employment so no one will ever know-works for me.I have hated the comments people make about my weight gain-I gained 80 pounds in 10 years and people who hadnt seen me would freak out.I have my 20 yr high school reunion next year and Im totally gonna be there since I didnt go to other ones because of the weight gain.

I have a few questions for those who have had the lap-band surgery... 1. How long were you out of work?***few days 2. Explain to me what getting "stuck" feels like.***very painful like others said 3. How soon after surgery can you begin to excercise?***I ran 80 minutes on the treadmill today(3 weeks in) 4. Were you afraid to eat after the surgery?***uh huh but did it anyway 5. If you have a spouse/significant other.. How did they handle your weight loss?**he is always supportive of everything I do but Ive only lost 15 pounds and you cant even tell yet.

"How can you people afford to pay cash?" Just knew I needed it done-went to Mexico for 9K-thats what my rainy day fund got used for-you are 17 so I can understand how you may not have an account for this type of thing.Good Luck-also you may want to look into financing-try this place...medicredit-1-800-963-6334

Im so excited-I PMed you.

Im near willowbrook mall in Houston and would like a local friend who is very close by so we can realisticly do things-Im not much of a driver so dont venture far from home when I have to drive(had a car wreck and going out of comfort zone kind freaks me out-weird but working on it)would like someone to go to lunch with,movies,shopping that sort of thing.I am off on Mon,tues and fridays.

dont give up-this is going to work-you just have to do th best you can and know that we are all here with you-it is very hard and I definitely understand.

hi-welcome to the board-its full of great people and great info.

I wish you all the luck in the world and welcome to the site-everyone is great.

im in so far-just maybe email us the week b4 for reminder

I was denied and just didnt feel it was the route for me to fight them on it after 2x-I selfpaid-just wanted to get it done-good luck.
