Arent you tired of people approaching you saying that you dont look as big as you are. What the hell does that mean? I might dont look like I'm 340 but my body feels every pound and looks dont mean nothing if the weight is not changing. Sorry I mean if one more person say that to me I'm going to hop on their back and let them see how heavy 300 pounds is.................:thumbup:

Has anyone gone through the three month diet and have failed to lose any weight that is 15 pounds or greater. I am going up and down week after week with my weight. I would lose a few pounds this week and gain it back next week. I mean is it just me or has anyone else experienced this twisted diet that Aetna requires.

J you been my boy for years now and I just apreciate you taking time to respond to my blog. I'm glad to see that the band has given you a life filled with much more excitement. Man its great to have the support of everybody on this site but especially of a close friend.

Thank you all for your insight. Is their any other experiences out there that can be shared with us........

Is there a certain amount of weight you have to lose before the surgeon will perform the surgery. I have heard some people say that they neede to lose ten pounds but only lose 7 and then the date gets pushed back. Anyone has any comments on this?

To Ms. Lose it Thank you for words of encouragement and I appreciate the support from everyone on here who has shown love. A New Me for 2010 is going to be my ultimate goal.

Today I felt so sick just looking at myself in the mirror. I have been wondering lately how did I get to this size and how would it be if I were to lose the weight. I have watched my mother and sister go through getting the band and it has seemed to work so wonderful for them. I guess I'm just tired of waiting and so ready to get my life back. I am ready to get back out with some of my old classmates and play ball or to go to the park and run around with my daughter without having to take mutiple 10 min breaks. I guess this year should be the year to look forward to many changes and hoping to re-gain the old sexy teddy bear I use to be.

Ms. Jackson once again I say thank you for your response.For this New Year I'm trying to write down how I'm feeling or say how I am feeling instead of holding it in. I mean I'm working on myself and I do know I will get to where I need and want to be. I just say thank you for all your advice and please keep it coming........

This stress is making my blood pressure continue to rise and it seems that the meds are not workong. I think right now I'm just really lacking the support I need....... Hmmm well back to the same ol same o.........

Ms. Jackson thank you for your esponse. I have been wondering if they were expecting me to lose a certain amount before getting approve. I guess I will have to just hang in there until Feb. Thanks.

I am having to go through this 3 month supervised diet before my insurance will take a look at my case. Is their any hobbies you all can suggest because I might go crazy if I dont find something to do.
