    THE WORST!

    I'm sorry, that's so frustrating! But I do know most insurance companies require 6 months in succession with no breaks or they start the clock over again and it has to be within the last year to qualify. Good luck!
  3. As I'm in the home stretch before surgery I am one of those uber type A people and very organized. So I have started packing a few things for the hospital... So, tell me what did you leave at home that you wish you would have taken to the hospital??

    My "Butterfly" day ...

    Thank you all! I can't wait to be a permanent, card holding member of the losers bench! As of today I am officially ready! Pre op labs done as well as pre op clearance from my primary physician!
  5. Well, my surgery day, what I call my "butterfly day" is exactly a week away....OMG it's almost here!! When I first walked into my surgeons office in August of 2015 and was told yes I was a good candidate but my insurance required a 6 month supervised diet I wanted to cry!!! I was so ready to have surgery right then and there!! In hindsight I needed these months to mentally change myself and my views on food. Now I am ready ! To those in the 6 month wait ...it will go quickly and use the time to prep yourself mentally as well as physically. ????

    My 600 Pound Life: 2016 Season

    But, Dr Now did say why didn't you let us know it was too expensive instead of not taking it? He did. I missed that apparently.No worries! Dr Now is so soft spoken it's a miracle he doesn't need sub titles ????

    Potty Problems

    Being high protein low /no carb we are all lacking fiber. Keeping hydrated will help as will miralax or the smooth move tea.

    Downton Abbey

    Speaking of Downton... The writer, Julian Fellows is slated to do a show in the US. It's reported to be set in the Gilded age in NYC. I can't wait!!! Touring fabulous Gilded age mansions or even better staying in one converted to a hotel is one of my passions.

  14. Stay strong! This will all work itself out and for now control the things you can. Be as ready for surgery mentally and physically as you can and it will happen!
  15. Ok so what was your Non scale victory for this week? For me, it may be TMI but I was able to take the extender off of my bra! Yeah for losing 3 inches ! ???? So what was your NSV this week????
  16. I have no experience but have you consulted with your neurologist also regarding surgery?

    Unhelpful Adverts

    When I open the app I get a full screen advert for any number of things. I have seen McDonalds, Google .....I must watch it for something like 5 seconds before I am able to access the app content.

    Downton Abbey

    Ok so as long as we are on theories I watched when the family went down to the kitchens to welcome home "The Carsons". Granny left early " because she was tired" ???? Now in worried she will be killed off this season! All the stress from her hospital fight... Hmmmmmm....
  19. Oh! I almost forgot, I also love Mr Selfridge (PBS) Bletchley Circle (BBC& PBS)
  20. Inner Surfer Girl- if you like Erik Larson you should check out Karen Abbott. She wrote Sin in the Second city as well as Liar Tempress Soldier Spy. LTSS is about female spies during the Civil war... Excellent read!

    Downton Abbey

    Oh my gosh! No worries! Spoilers don't bother me at all or I would not have opened the thread ????
  22. Off to find that book! I'm a crazy book worm ...and I am addicted to coffee table books ! Coffee table books with wonderful photographs ....

    Downton Abbey

    Oh wow! I'm an episode behind since I discovered Mercy Street and must divide my limited time for tv watching. Can't wait to see that episode now! I was worried they would kill him off this season. All the talk of gastric upset etc. I was worried they were for foreshadowing a heart attack.
  24. If you like Devil in the White City them try his In The Garden of Beasts. Since you like PBS dramas, CALL THE MIDWIFE (hanky alert!) Oh I forgot about In the Garden of beasts! I loved that book and try to red everything Eric Larson Writes....I have a few on hold through Overdrive I love Call the Midwife! Basically I am addicted to BBC programming in general
