ok fellas, let me ask you... what exactly do you consider a "10" anyway?????? what is wrong with anything less? why would you want a girl that is a "10" anyway? don't you all know what "those" girls are like? just like the guys you say are getting them thats what.:sad::eek::sad::eek::tt2::eek::eek::eek: NOT WORTH YOUR TIME! if you are a nice decent guy the girl is gonna be into you! so are you saying that when you get to your ideal or goal weight you are only gonna go for "hot chicks"? what if you get there and then you fall for someone as big or bigger than you were or are? are you gonna pass up love? is it love or sex that you want? beggars CAN'T and shouldn't be picky. i'm just saying is all! and i know this is the mens room, but hey, us "fat" girls have feelings too!:crying: then again, i've been maried for 17 years, WHAT DO I KNOW? good luck with your quest.:tongue2:

hey ya'll! thanks for all the replies back. i must admit that i feel kindof jealous of those of you going to civilians and not having to wait so long for surgery :crying:, but that is ok. i just know that when i do get my surgery date it will probably be quick or at least feel quick to me (HOPEFULLY!) not that i want to wait or that i'm not ready. i have to say that since my seminar i have been eating things i know i won't be able to eat after the banding. it is exactly what they said NOT to do so i am going up and down 5 pounds from my seminar weight. on the brighter side, i have been going to the gym and no that isn't my excuse to eat more, LOL. i am eating "things" not "over eating", i think there is a difference :thumbup:. so i see my surgeon on wed 10/6 and i already know my labs were all good and my rheumatalogist cleared me. if my surgery is before thanksgiving i am gonna have thanksgiving dinner early :thumbup:. ok, this was long. sorry. so how is everyone else doing?

that is awesome and we are neighbors (sort of) i am in virginia beach and getting banded at the naval hospital. all that blood was crazy!!! i went to the seminar first and they ordered the labs and chest xray for us to be done before we could get our first appointment. after i see the surgeon i can schedule my psych and nutrition appt. then see surgeon again for a band date. i should be good to go. as a heads up, especially if you go to the MTF, they WILL need a current pap result, current as in the last year. they didn't give me an option to see a civilian. that is ok because i guess they do ALOT of bands and bypass here. good luck to you also.

hey ya'll! i don't have a surgery date yet, but almost. i went to seminar and had all the labs done, and now i see the surgeon on oct 6th. i am so excited and kinda scared. everything i have read on here about tricare and having to wait so long and do a 6 month diet isn't so. believe me, i am relieved. they said it would be a total of 4-8 months. that is awesome. i am a navy wife with tricare prime going to MTF so i just wanted to throw that out there. also, this site is wonderful. kudos to everyone!!!! I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!! :biggrin::lol2:
