@lynkaosgood... "She came out and said that I was taking the easy route and I should try different options and just try to lose weight that way. When she found out I had miscarried a few months ago, she just said its all for the best... Just want to smack her sometimes. Her negativity fuels my desire to rub it in her face when I finally succeed at losing weight and finally becoming a mother. Sorry its so long, that's just how this journey got started" Ashley, so, so sorry you lost your mom and have gone through so much and now have so much nasty negativity from your MIL. I wanted to smack her too. But do glad your turning it into something positive, letting it fuel your desire to succeed. She is wrong my dear, it wasn't fur the best when you must your baby, and was is not the easy road, it is a tool, and you ARE going to be successful!!! Love your determination!

@@Riz2006 thank you!! I needed to hear that! @@amazon, wow... Awesome!

@@Riz2006 Wow!! I'm going in to get mine June 12th, any tips for the rest of us so we can tick or sleeve like you have?!

@@onthefencejenny, sorry for asking your height, just that I'm a shorty and thinking 221 wouldn't look that good on me! Your looking great!

Just saw this thread, praying she continues to just get better and better!

@@Stevehud, so sorry you are facing unknowns, praying for you.

@@auntjanny yeah for you!! I appreciate your honest post, and congratulations on your weight loss!! Keep up the good work, you are on the right track!

@, I'll be close by! My surgery is scheduled on June 12th at another place then my sis and I are staying till the 16 or 17 just a few blocks away from you. Your going to a great facility ,( I live here and have been by it many times) before you go home have then take you to the boardwalk it's runs along the beach. Also I believe everyone there speaks English. And they have a nice front patio with greenery to walk in. Make sure you have Skype and or a texting app that you can use their WiFi to call or text home. Or get a mexico calling plan, and am your carrier about calls when your in mexico. (And don't forget to turn off your data before you cross the border). God Bless my dear!

@@onthefencejenny, my dear you look amazing!!! What a difference! I know it's been hard work, but you've had an amazing transformation! BTW may I ask how tall you are?

@@Chrissyg wow!!! I'm so, so happy for you!!!! That's amazing!! Congratulations!!! Wow. Can't wait till I get to say the same!! My date is finally getting close!!! I'm going in for my surgery June 12th. Giving up coffee is worrying me too, cause without it I don't function well at work. Wondering if the low acid coffee would work. I think even Folger's has an option called "simply smooth" though others do too. Hoping it all smooths out soon! @@Designer Edit, in so happy for you guys! How awesome is that, that your sisters coworkers changed around for her! That's awesome!!! And keep us all posted!!

Hi, everyone... Not sure if this is still active but I'm 5'1" (& 3/4)! CW 227, HW 245+, I'm scheduled for June 12! @shortybug My insurance process is crazy long and my Dr said probably still wouldn't approve since I don't have diabetes, high bp or some other co-morbidity. Aaarrggghh, so I'm going to have my surgery in Tijuana with a great surgeon Dr Maytorena (with "long term vsg") on June 12. Hoping you've gotten good news by now that you have been approved!

In so glad i found this post!! Med/surg RN for 7 yrs. @dsmith_rn. We can't have water at the nurses desk or with us anywhere. Only break room (or sometimes hidden in the kitchenette) it's very difficult for me to stay hydrated now! I'm not sure how I'm going to do it. My manager said I had to be out until I was cleared to lift 50lbs so this is at least 3 weeks if not longer, reading your post makes me glad I'm asking for 6 weeks medical leave just in case! I can always come back sooner. Any tips on his to stay hydrated would be helpful.

@@tnkrrbl so glad to hear you are doing well!!! Sorry I didn't make it by to see you! And thanks for sharing your experience! My little pictures didn't do it justice did it? Thanks so much for sharing!

@@Chrissyg awesome!! Thanks again for sharing your experience with VSG. Can't wait to see your videos! BTW, did I see you in a youtube video on the VSG Facebook page?

. Hi, are you here in Tijuana? I'd love to stop by and see u and the clinic. Just realized i funny know your name! (Mines Christina BTW) My prayers are with u... If u don't get this till later that's OK and have a speedy recovery!!

Love these, can't wait till I don't mind being in front for pictures (I'm a shorty).

@@maggie409 you go girl!!!

@@Janex43 awesome! Where are you scheduled to have it? My insurance is super strict and so don't approve so I'm having mine here in mexico. We should keep in touch!

Awesome!!! @@dorian122 thanks for your insight on the clinic!

Yeah @@dorian122!! Good for you! Praying for a speedy recovery!

June 12 for me, so excited and a bit scared too! Going to start trying out protein drinks!

@@César Faz thank you for sharing!!! Im a nurse and so far I like what I've read about them and what they've said. Dr Maytorena's resume also states he was a trauma Dr for Red Cross for 3yrs... Which is pretty awesome! Again thanks for sharing!!

@ my dear, I'm so sorry that happened to you!! People can be so insensitive. But yeah for you, you are getting healthy changing your life!!

Yeah, UNJURY does that too... Just got my samples!!! Can't edit to try them! (BTW they are 20gms protein per packet ... Use in 4oz liquid) how much protein does syntrax have?

Yeah!!! Good for you!!!
