  1. Yay you've lost 16 lbs! Congrats. My last appt for my 6 month supervised diet is Friday of next week...October 3rd. All my paperwork gets sent in October 6th and then I wait for approval. Surgery should be in 6 or 7 weeks! November 3rd or 10th most likely.

    Hello from WV

    I'm waiting for October 3rd so i will be done with my 6 month diet and stuff will be going into insurance. Toward the middle of October I should be having my EGD and getting a surgery date...I was already told it will probably be November 3rd or 10th. I don't care which one I just want an official date! :confused: Everything has been going so fast and now it seems so slow!
  4. I hope you get your 2nd fill soon. I have my lasy nutritional appt for my 6 month diet on October 3rd. Super excited that everything is finally going to be sent into the insurance and then I will actually meet Dr. Kaplan. Everything seems to be going so slow now. Cause it's so close. I plan on going to lots of support groups if they are at good times...depending on my mom's work schedule cause my car is pretty much DEAD. LOL. Anywho haven't heard from you lately keep me posted on how you're doing. I am almost in bandland with you!! 6 to 7 more weeks until I finally get banded!

  5. That's awesome. I'm glad you're finally getting the ball rolling. Like I said before it will go by soooo quickly. My surgery will be in 6 or 7 weeks. It's getting really exciting. I can't wait until I get the official date sometime between the 13th and 17th of October I'll get my approval and get appts in with Kaplan and my preop nutriotional etc. I had my most recent weigh in September 16th. I had gained 1.5 lbs...but that's no biggie. My final weigh in is next week on Friday the 3rd of October...I'd like to get into the 380's but it probably won't happen...if not I hope it does on my preop diet. October 6th all my stuff gets sent into insurance. It seems like time is going so slow now cause everything is getting so close and coming together. Frustrating. I want my official date. :( lol

    Hamsters???

    My hamsters that happen to have tubes do that all the time. They take their bedding and move it down or up the tubes and it gets stuck...they eventually just dig through it. They're either trying to get clean bedding to where they want or trying to get the soiled bedding out of where they sleep. Very very normal.

    I hate it when people post just to post.....

    Posting to say I am alive?
  8. I only had about a week after. I pay my 1700 in October when I get my EGD. Everything's been going pretty quickly with me. I hope things turn out well for you.

    When is your surgery?

    I don't have an exact date yet...but I was told most likely it will be November 3rd...but it could also possible be the 10th. Either way omg it's sooooooo close. I'll have an official day toward the middle of October.

    Hamsters???

    I have 5 hamsters. What would you like to know? :redface:
  11. So everyone getting banded in November...or supposed to be...we need a group name!!! Any ideas. So far all I have in mind is: Nostalgic Novembers November Thinsters Notorious Novembers New Life Novembers Next Step Novembers Nutritious Novembers It doesn't have to have November in it but it needs something representing it somehow I think. Nor does it need to rhyme have the same letters. Come on guys we need a name Also after we have one...I can make a graphic for us all...if you want...I made my froggi one in my siggy. Let me know
  12. I don't know if anyone else has this problem but here goes. It's my TOM and for some reason whenever I get it I always get hemmoroids and get partly constipated...does anyone else have this problem.:thumbup: It seems worse this time than in the past TOMs, could it be because I've lost 12 lbs?:confused2: I don't know I am confused and uncomfortable, and very crampy. :crying:I was just wondering if this happens to a lot of women during TOMs. Thanks.

    I finally get my rescue inhaler tomorrow. My mom is refusing to buy the controller one because it costs too much and she has heard it affects the rescue one and makes it not work as well.:biggrin: My pulmonologist's office said we can have samples instead of paying for it but she still doesn't want me on it. Hopefully I'll find out if that's true on Thursday of next week when I goto my pulmonologist for clearance for surgery! I have a weigh in tomorrow...I hope I lose a few pounds I would really like to be in the 380's. Who knows. I had salty ramen for dinner...so I'll probably gain. Talk to you all later!:tt1:
  15. I do hope you feel much better hun. She's just being protective of her daughter. Oh how I know how that feels. I love you. -hug- Feel better.
  16. I say let her have her opinions. You're an adult and have every right to do these things if you please. It's not like your pictures are trashy anyway...they are beautiful. If she cannot accept that well that sucks for her. You're an amazing person and I would be lost without you talking with me often and calming me down when something goes wrong. She's worried...but she needs to realize her daughter is a grown up. The classy pictures that you take aren't going to ruin your career...and if your daughters grow up and want to take photos because their mom inspired them...more power to them. Your pictures are inpiring. It's hard to believe you used to be heavy. You're amazingly beautiful. Don't let your mom's harsh words get you down. You have enough going on in your life. Everyone that I have given your link to...says you're the only girl on that voting site that looks like she has any class...and that a lot of the other ones look like whores...not you. Try not to let her get too far under your skin dear. Tell her how the pictures make you feel. I'm sure they make you feel amazing and beautiful...which you are. I hope thigns turn out well and that all of the other drama you have gets better. I love you dear. -hug-
  17. LOL Tina Fey as Sarah Palin was hilarious..I laughed a lot. I'm glad I saw it.

    Posting to say I am tired of 90 degree weather. We are getting hit with remnants of Ike tonight though so we're gonna get hit with 40 mph winds and rain so it will cool down some. Thank goodness. On the other hand...so far we haven't been able to find out anything cheaper in controller inhalers. My mom refuses to buy me them until we figure something out...I've been having small attacks and symptoms a lot lately and have nothing to use. It's annoying. Hopefully tomorrow we can get ahold of my pulmonologist and at least get the rescue inhaler...if my mom will even do that. Blah.

    I hate it when people post just to post.....

    I had my sleep study. Wasn't bad at all. Nurse said I quit breathing a few times but for like 1 or 2 seconds. Nothing severe. I get the full results on September 25th. As soon as I got home today my pulmonologist called. I have asthma they said 12 and under was asthmatic...I was a -35. So He's putting me on two inhalers...I can't afford the symbicort one though....anyone know of any like that but are cheaper and work about the same? The rescue inhaler is only 30 though but the Symbicort is over 100. Also I got a new hammie. Long haired cream colored. I named it Toffee.
  22. not having sex when they were younger...YOUNGER...if people want to practice abstinence good for them...I am saying parents should teach their kids to not have sex until they are at least older and can understand it more...like I said kids nowadays will lose their virginity at age 10,11,12. I am not saying Omg no don't have sex ever before marriage. I'm just saying tell them to wait and learn more and be more mature before doing it.

    September exercise challenge?

    Plus you can walk around the house and in place to keep your heartrate up to burn calories. It's pretty damn easy to get some simple exercises in. I hope the storm isn't too bad on you guys. Good luck.

    Excess Skin

    I most definetly will need plastics eventually...I'm big everywhere and I already have a huge lower stomach that hands over...can't imagine what it will be like just as skin. I have started to lose weigh in my arms and my batwings are getting looser and hanging a bit more than the fat did there. So we will see...I have a lloooong looong way to go but some of us that started at very high weights have no other decision but to get plastics. Unless we're happy with floppy skin that gets rashes under it etc.
