I was 145 in my wedding dress and 5'3". I still thought I was over weight. I look back now and think if only I could be that again, yet I still do want to be back to 125...we'll see if I can even get there. I have now grown with each baby and am now almost 5'5" so that should help once I lose. Still waiting on insurance stuff. THey say that 90% of their appeals are approved so we'll see. I'm glad your doing well and excited to see your progress. Good Luck.

SO How are you doing??? I hope your recovering well. Sadly my insurance denied me and now I have to go through this whole Appeal process and wait even longer! Hopefully it will happen still! Good luck with your first week! Remember , sip sip sip!

So exciting! Totally let me know when it is approved. I have been watching my insurance claim online (Tricare) like a hawk and it came back NOT APPROVED !! AGH! I now have to wait for the letter in the mail to see WHY and than appeal it. SUCH BULL! The Dr'.s Office said 90% of their appeals come back approved. So cross your fingers for me. I will be SO bummed if It doesn't happen.

Good luck!

Hi! Your story sounds similar to mine. I'm so ready to not only have a pretty face but a pretty bod....(excluding the baby stretch marks-25 yrs old 2 little girls) ANyway, I am excited to find someone that is having surgery around the same time as me. I am waiting for the call that finalizes if I'm having surgery in September or October. So we'll see. Good luck and hopefully we can stay posted!

I'm Rebbecca, 25 yrs old and am hoping to be banded this month. I should be getting the call for scheduling any day now. I saw your pictures on the before and after and you are so awesome! I am the same body shape as you and it is totally motivating to see your success and beauty. Thanks for sharing.

p.s. I'm new at this whole forum thing...how do I get my picture to show when I post comments?... Thanks

Good Luck this week! Hang in there. No Pain No gain! It is all going to be worth it! God Bless!

Thanks~ I am waiting to get my surgery date. I have my pre-op consultation with my surgeon on the 28th of this month and from their I'll be getting my date. I'm hoping for surgery in September. That is so awesome that you have lost 60 lbs. Way to go!! I am a little nervous about the pain that might be associated with it all but I think whatever it brings has to be better than the emotional pain and disappointment of being over weight. Anyway, thanks so much. Keep up the good work!

At 10yrs old I started dieting and binge exercising.14 years of this messed my metabolism (My resting metabolic rate should be at 1785 cals a day but it is at 800 cals a day) I went up and down from 115lbs to 175lbs until I had my first daughter.I worked out like a mad woman and dieted again and I couldn't lose a pound!! At 2 weeks old my daughter was hospitalized for a disease called Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis amongst other things and we were fighting to keep her alive for almost 2 1/2 years. In the middle of that my brother passed away in a car accident, my husband is in the military and that job took its toll as well. So trying to lose my baby weight the depression didn't help. After my second baby (Dec. 08) the weight just added on top of the previous weight. I finally decided I needed to find something that could help me get to my normal self. I so miss being able to run my heart! I am at 214 now and am so anxious to get this show on the road!! I want a full life of quality!
