I have tons of nice Lane Bryant stuff from when I was smaller.. mostly jeans size 14 tall and some 16's .. unfortunatly i need bigger sizes til i get my band I also have tons of shoes i dont want.. size 9M and up .. all worn very little some dressy some casual/ good brands looking for 18's tall and 22 blouses /shirts just pm me

I took phentermine .. loved it lost weight had a barely there appetite ..... then the effect was gone, i didnt feel anything sometimes felt like I didnt take it. my doc took me off for 3 months then back on to see if it would work.. it hasnt, I still get my perscription filled , but I am also scared it may be raising my blood pressure which I already have problems with being too high.

Congrats to the winner ! I know you must be super excited , thankful and cant wait to begin your journey. What a wonderful Blessing & Amom and Adad what a wonderfuk wonderful gift you have given .God bless you both

oh my I am just so sad that he did that,it heart breaking ! Wether Mrs P is aware or not it just plain wrong ... I dont feel for him at all FOR WHAT HE IS DOING , EVEN ALITTLE BIT OF CONSIDERATION WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE ON HIS PART , WHY RUSH AND MOVE THE CAREGIVER IN...SO SAD

Thank you for this post Tom helped me to remember whats important again.

Faybie , not sure why but that scares me.. I think you should go get it checked just to be safe. I think it is just you may be anemic , or maybe because not taking any vitamins.. but it still has me concerned for you. I f I were you I would get it checked immediatly .

Congrats on you banding !! I wish the prices were like that here in the US , I also wish health inurance wasnt so expensive and was similar to other countries . I wish you continued happines with your life and weightloss journey ! :clap2: thanks for sharing too

CONGRATS JOE!! I havent been banded yet, just wanted to share in your good news

I am just wondering if when insurance states you need a comorbity along with the weight, are they saying you must have one of them for at least 5 years aswell ? my insurance is Aetna , but seems I might as well not have any they dont want to cover anything:(

Lord I just want to pray right now and ask you to help those who have posted what they are going through. I ask that you will show your love and mercy like only you can do for all of us and our families , because we need you Lord. I cry out to you for my sisters and brothers and ask for you to step in a help those that are struggiling or depressed.I thank you Father , for loving us unconditionally and even when we feel we fall short.Thank you for your healings and for mending the hearts of us who feel broken Thank you Lord..Amen

Congrat! How wonderful Good Luck!

I too have been lurking... So glad it went well :clap2:

Hi Sunnysea, Just wanted to say I have heard that some peoples sleep apnea has improved or gone away since loosing weight , so I wish you the best and hope yours goes away also. I havent gotten banded yet , but hope to soon.. Take care,

Good luck with your surgery! I went to the Weight Loss Center in Newport News for my seminar with Dr Terricina aswell and had decided to go with him, though my insurance may not allow it. I cant wait to here back from you as to how great things with , I have heard nothing but wonderful things about this doctor. :clap2:

Yes i TOO was on Xenical and it worked great because I learned what foods were high in fat that i thought were not. Somewhere along the line I convinced myslef that Chick fi lay chicken sandwhichs were not too bad.. well I learned quickly while on Xenical I was wrong !!!! The leakage is gross with a very foul smell .. and looks like orange grease(like you see in the toco bell taco wrapping) it stains anything it comes in contact with too..lol So be very very careful.. it could be very embarrassing , I had a few times I didnt even know it had happpened til I got home and the horrid orange was on the back of my pants..VERY NOTICEABLE

Good Luck ! I know you must be super excited

sorry your having issues with the Dr. Did he/she mention why she would referr you as a canidate ? Just keep requesting the referral or possibly change doctors .. not sure if thats an option for you. Keep you spirits up , prayer does work .

Aww so sorry to hear your having tummy troubles, talk tith your docotor there must be something that can ease your discomfort Hope to hear things are going better soon for you

I hope things go well for you , I too was on a year long phentermine med program . Hoping for the best and for your insurance to respond with a quick APPROVED!

Im not sure if its normal.. but I just wanted to say that maybe you can just eat a healthy meal even though your not hungry or something light just for the nutrional value until you start to want food again. I would also call you Dr. just to let him know you have no appetite and feel sick when thinking of eating. Also another idea would be to take in protien shakes or something like it just to keep you having something in your system plus ofcourse your water too. Hope your feeling better soon

If he is still limping I would have him checked by the Veternary , I have a little yorkie and they can hurt themselves so easily .. better to be safe than sorry .

CONGRATS! you must be so excited ..cant wait to here back after the big day
