    GoOd MoRnInG LaDiEs!!!! ~ Dr. Fisher gave Nicolie and I the packet on the sleeve at the end of our appt. We were not sure why and though... oh god another choice for us and why??? Well after reviewing it... I think probably because it is less invasive that bypass becuase there is no rerouting. i think he was listening to me when I said I do not want to be malnurished and am concerned if I have a pregnancy later ( which Kaiser pretty much acts like that is not a good idea after any of these surgeries- He told us we should lose 50 lbs and give ourselves a decade to have kids and come back for surg later! ahhhhh I am tired of this battle....But after the discussion I realize its becuase he wants us informed and know our options...k I am rambling) I told him I felt Gastic was so Invasive and I am not comfortable with rerouting my insides! I do have acid reflux and I do not want to live a life with a burning gut and throat. The packet really had all the info we all have read about diet and complications with gastric surg, it basically had the diagram and the overview of what the sleeve is. No more info than we know. No why as to why we should do it,No reason for why they do this now too... nothing. I want lap band.

I think all of the facts and emotions involved have taken over my brain..lol. Well I need to make my grocery list and get to that 1200cal diet... tonite I will handle it. Dr. Fisher said to touch bases with hime so he can see my progress and the we will make the decision for surgery. I am feeling so darn eager!!!!!!!!!!

    ~Congrats Maria!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! U should still come on the 14th so we can build you up and cheer you on! ~So I am wondering how many appts are we to go to before having the surg... I know about the consult with surgeon and psych and nutritionist and case mgr.... but what else. The binder mentions all these classes. I just want to be prepared for all the time I will need off of work.

    Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the floor each morning the devil says~~ "Oh Crap, She's up!" Sister Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Love the ones who don't just because you can. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance , grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly. God never said life would be easy.. He just promised it would be worth it. Happy Sister's Day! I LOVE YA SISTA'!!! Girlfriend and Sister's Week I am only as strong as the chocolate I eat, the hair spray I use and the friends I have. To the cool women that have touched my life.. Here's to you! National Girlfriends Day What would most of us do without our sisters, confidants and shopping, lunching, and traveling girls? Let's celebrate each other for each other's sake! TO MY GIRLFRIENDS!

    Candra... have your pcp document whats happening with the pannus. If there is medical reason it can be removed by plastic surgery but it must be treated and documented.

    ~Gratitude~ Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past. Brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie

    Just some inspiration for our day Ladies... ~When I find myself fading, I close my eyes and realize my friends are my energy. ~Good friends are good for our health. ~But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.
