Anyway I finally let my mom know last night that I made my decision she was a little concerned about surgery, but happy that I was happy with my choice. I just hope it stays that way. The rest of the world will go on without knowing unless I feel differently after it's done. Keep the workouts up they work more then you realize.

Thankfully enough it's just Nausea and with no vomiting. It really gets worse when I meet with another doctor. Always the thought of will I mess up and this doctor not reccomend the surgery. But so far I have been really complimented on my goals and everything I am doing for myself. I get a lot of workouts in during the week. Usually a mile on the treadmill, and 5 miles on the cycle. Then my rounds on the weights. I am really working on the midsection and the glutes. I do not want loose skin after loosing weight. Biggest fear after the band not working at all of course. I never got sore after a workout maybe because I chase after 2 little ones and am constantly cleaning house. Which by the way I was looking up on the internet did you know doing normal housework can burn up to 199 calories per hour. Sometimes more if it's a strainous job.

Thank You. We did have a YMCA but it closed down a few months ago. We have 3 very large 24 hour gyms around the area that I think kind of took over. I'm not sure what's causing the nausea I think it's more less nerves. Trying to get everything together and done right so they have no reason to deny the request for approval. I do know that I am excited for every day that passes. I finally broke down and told my sister that I had made my decission about the surgery. She was a little upset that I didn't tell her a couple of weeks ago, but she calmed down pretty quick when I explained to her that I wasn't really wanting to share it with anyone but hubby until it actually happened. I do hope you are able to get a fill soon. You are doing great with the weight you have lost, and I understand you wanting to get a fill to loose more. YOU WILL REACH YOUR GOAL!! LoL I tell myself that everyday.

well we only have an in ground pool, and it is still way to cold to even consider swimming. I work out on a daily basis usually an hour a day sometimes 2 hours. It seems to help the pain for a little while and then it comes back once my body has stopped moving. I will try the minty items for the nausea and hope it works for me. I know during pregnancy the only thing that worked was pickles. Don't ask my why it's weird I know but that's what helped. Now they make the nausea worse. I am looking forward to a healthier me. I just can't picture myself 100 lbs lighter. Well my first goal is 75 lbs then I will reset each goal as I reach it, and make new milestones along the way. I meet with the dietician next week. So so excited I can't wait to get to June..

Well my thoughts and prayers are with you through your journey. Everyone I have talked to that has had Aetna as there insurance said it went quickly and got approved within 10 days. I am hoping I have the same luck. My only thought and concern through it all is the health problems I am having presurgery. I have a cyst on my spine that causes unbelievable pain down my right leg and in the lower back. I have issue with strained ligaments in my lower stomach. It's become a very big issue. I have already been in the hospital over the pain and the serverity of the nausea. I want a healthier me for myself and my children..

Thank You I am hoping to have mine done this July like I said I am in month 1 of a 3 month process for the insurance. I finish in June so from June to July it gives me a month to appeal I can wait however long I need to I would just prefer to get it done asap. Congrats on yours how much are you down?
