  1. i feel pretty fine other than feeling nauseous from the medicine and i did have a head ache but that's somewhat gone. ^^ the slimming is kinda gross lol but i think you get it if you eat too fast or when you get something stuck

  2. it flew pretty fast for me lol i dont know why. i had to do the 6th month thing, they just want to make sure everything will be ok for your body to go under something major. they do a lot of tests. my first appt. was september 11th 2008 holy cow, i was nervous but excited as well lol wow i dont even remember what went on that day hmm but i always remember the second appt the most. good luck :D

     

    i know, saw the dr yesturday they gave me medicine for a possible UTI bleghh second time getting that since being banded which is because im not drinking enough waterr. i had blue cross blue shield child health care plus which ends when you turn 19. i dont get to get fills until i get a new insurance i dont see my surgeon again till i get a new insurance annndd if i really need to see a dr ill fish out the cashh like my mom did yesturday.

  3. i just hope it was the right meds haha when i was younger i use to get UTI's all the time and if its what i really have then its the second time i got it since being banded. ouch that stinks, i didnt have that much pain thank god, thats good its out now yeah i'm affraid that if i drink too much of anything i will throw it back up, but i do know that i need to drink more water, the thing about the medicine i'm on is if you dont eat enough with it, you will get so nauseous and ugh i didn't eat enough with it yesturday and i was so nauseous later at night so i ate some crackers it made it go away :wink2: but i drank some water which also helped and when i was taking a shower it felt like my band was going to explode? lol idk but it felt really tight and i have no fill so hmh lol thanks :w00t:
  4. my mom thought that was the best place to go so her fault lol and thanks, i hope to be feeling better before i have to go back to school
  5. hello :D

     

    it's going alright, wish it could go better for me, i had a rough begining, but i managed to lose around 40 pounds, i feel that i deffinately could have lost way more than that by now, i haven't had any fills yet and i've been banded for almost 7 months(wow i just realized it was almost that lol) it doesnt feel like it was that long ago. i haven't had any fills because i had severe nausea for a very long time and by time i was ready to get a fill my insurance ran out =/ but anywho i wish i had some fellow friends that are trying to lose weight cause i know it'll be easier and more fun to workout with a buddy (: how are you?

  6. i went to the obgyn today, might i add wow so expensive and the medicine was 34.60 my mom paid. =/ but yeah they said it wasn't too bad, they sent my pee off to the lab for a culture. they gave me a prescription for UTI and its the same exact kind i had back in september. they said i should be feeling better in 48 hours and if i'm not feeling any better by monday to give them a call and they'll re-check
  7. i dont think i do, i think they only gave me one prescription for it cause i only had to take it for a week
  8. i was watching a movie last night, wasnt really comfy either, and i also had to go to the bathroom or else i would of puked and it was diarrhea as well, but i did not vomit, i told my mom that i feel almost like i did back in september when i had an infection and she said it might be that again so im hoping shell call tomorrow and hoping that she and my dad or my grandma will help me pay for it, cause i know, ill feel better if i see a doctor
  9. yup it is a big step closer, congrats (: it will go by quick, it did for me (:

     

    me idk, since friday ive been having pains around my lower belly, inside the hip area, lower back, it'll be sharp pains here and there, naseous, headaches, and dizzyness, geez, i think i have a kidney infection or something and i cant see a doctor, i have no insurance =$

  10. i know what it feels like when i need to go. and its not that feeling, pain doesnt go away when i get up, i feel a little dizzy too
  11. my friend is the same age as me and she has had kidney stones before i think i have a urinary tract infection cause it kind of feels like that, and i know if its an infection i need antibiotics and need to see a doctor, my mom wont bring me to get checked
  12. what i mean is the protein shakes will i need to be drinking them for the rest of my life?, i think the kind you mix with water gives me a stomach ache and im getting sick of them too, the unflavoured, isnt so unflavoured it still has a taste and its so nasty, i was wondering if slim fast would be ok cause i actually like those. or could i just find a way to get 80+grams of protein a diff way but healthy things with a lot of protein in them? oh and the vitamins i am taking give me a severe stomach ache to the point where i can vomit if i eat something. blahh how far up to surgery could i wear my tongue ring, nose ring, industrial bar, ear piercings and plugs? i hope i can wear them all the way up just, just before they put me to sleep. omg so fricking excited and nervous(sorry for saying that alotttt) tomorrow is my last day of protein shakes 4 times a day, thank god!!!! my mom thinks im coming home that same day, but i told her that they told me that i was staying the night lol got all my things together. ahh hope i dont forget anything eep!
  13. me too (: no problem and ok :scared2:
  14. no problem (: and make sure you could wear retainers because i couldnt even wear them so ask at that appointment
  15. anna_ree-well i took my lip out a few weeks before surgery because for some reason it felt infected but it wasnt and it was annyoing me i miss it dearly now, but i now have a verticle labret and it doesnt bug me at all. after surgery, i was able to get all my piercings back in with no problems when i got to my room at the hospital, i think i went into surgery at 7 or 8 am and got out at 11 or 12, not really sure, everything that day was blury when i looked at the clock. but theyre all fine and doing good, that what you mean? greytz-yeah when i made those posts, i was really sick and i didnt think i was going to get better at all. i started feeling better probably the 2nd or 3rd week of december i mean like really good-ish. i thought of removing it for a long time but i dont wanna risk getting all my weight i lost back, yeah sure i gained about 5-6 pounds, i havent had a fill, now i cant cause i dont have insurance, but i cant wait to get one. nope i wasnt talking about another surgery (:
  16. kk and i kind of feel a lil better, i played the new super mairo bros for wii last night and i beat one of the castles on world 6 which made me happy lol then a little while after that i watched some of my fave nick at nite shows which made me laugh, i love the nanny(i watched this show all the time when i got out of surgery, i got hooked on it and i love it) and george lopez, i dont see why people hate fran, i love that show after that i went on my favorite site looking at clothing and somethings in which i am going to be buying again next friday the 12th for like a valentine's day gift to my self and one from my mom, im getting a hoodie, 2 plugs(body jewelry) and an eye shadow palette. and im also going to buy hair dye later which are going to be a bright purple, the pruple i have in one of my pix, a hot pink color and a teal or a pretty blue color, i plan on having blue hair after spring break(the last day of spring break [April 18th]purple hair for my senior banquet and graduation, and possibly pink and purple for after or on my graduation party i dont know but shopping makes me feel better in any situation and i made a shopping list up to June 11th heres my list(and im sorry for putting it on here i know its nothing important but i kind of makes me feel better heh) Feb 12. eye shadow palette sparrow plugs pink with black stars plugs tripp hoodie March 12. Septum piercing April 10th deep purple hair dye purple punch hair dye popsicle pink hair dye twisted teal or turquoise time hair dye bleaching kit sharpie pack (for year book signing) April 30th dress for senior banquet new dressy shoes replacement beads for tongue ring(non metal) May 28th dress for graduation a couple pieces of jewelry June 11th New bedding purple flesh tunnels (plugs, body jewelry) but yeah anyways i love shopping, i love how it takes my mind off of things and i love how it makes me happy and excited, i save my money up and use cash. the thoughts arent as strong which makes me happy, theyre still there, a little faded but still there, im doing a little more than what i have been doing but yup, i gotta tell my mom, i know i know, idk why but i cant let it out and tell her, idk why hmm
  17. im feeling a little happy/excited right now but still have the thoughts on my mind, but their not as strong but they are there. i try making myself think of other things, better fun things, it works a little but not good enough. im thinking of txting my mom, how should i say it to her?
  18. yeah i want to, we're going to wal mart later, i will try to talk to her about it then, i just dont want other people to be around, but i dk i feel like shed get angry eventhough i know she wont be, heh so weird
  19. thanks i go through my days like i normaly do, i feel ok its just that these thoughts are clinging on for dear life and making me not want to be around people. i will laugh and feel happy for about 5-10 seconds then the thoughts come for a minute and it repeats all day. im angry at myself for thinking the ways i have been these past 3 days, thats not normal for me. usually, everyday during the week i get mad cause i have to get up so early for school lol, but normally i would think about things like shopping for new clothes, getting prettier clothes but clothes that are my "type", what i want to do when i get home, how i want my house to be like when i get older, how i want my graduation to be like, things to look up on the computer, looking at tattoos/piercings, things like that, it feels like my mind got covered with a black shield so now it kind of feels blank, but not really, i feel like i need to be hypnotized or something heh
  20. thanks, that actually makes sense, cause i had crazy thoughts before like around the time i started getting it i never thought of it being caused by depo tho. i thought they were thoughts that people get every now and then. i have one more injection and thats the last one i want to get and i dont want to be on BC anymore but my mom wants me to, my choice and thats what i want my next shot is in may the only thing i like about this form of BC is the no "time of month" thing cause i hated it and i hated it espcially having to deal with it in school, id feel embarrassed for some reason and reallly uncomfortable around people, im ready to get off, i just want that last one and im done, like i said, yeah thanks again (:
  21. it might be and i know it makes you gain weight. i kind of knew that it would kind of make you depressed, i just didnt think it would be me, you know? my last shot before this was early sometime in november, i got my recent one on monday i barely talked beofre, i felt even more quiet today, nervous, and i always keep a smile on my face even when im hurting the most i've been on depo for 2 years now, im planning on getting off of it sometime before i graduate hmm
  22. no, i dont think so i just got my birthcontroll shot(depo) on monday though and i had some pains here and there around the inside hip areas
