Recommended Posts

:) :cry

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to give everyone an update on my band removal. I talked to my surgeon here where I live, and he has agreed to take my band out.. well, so far so good.. he is going to have my records faxed to him and then he will decide if he can do it.. I am thrilled about this.. and my insurance will cover the surgery. yahooooooooo :D

Don't get me wrong, I am very bummed about this whole band erosion thing, but I am glad to be saving thousands of dollars...

Well, thanks again for everyone's support!!!

EROSION IS HELL ON EARTH :D !!!

For no particular reason, my husband has asked me to add this photo to my post:

I am sorry to hear about your erosion and my prayers are with you.

On a lighter note...

Can you ask hubby if he has a picture of the Dolphin's helmet instead... it's much more attractive to the eye.

Very sorry to hear about the erosion, Francesca. While I realize its probably not going to make ya feel any better at this point, from the last pictures I saw of you, you're looking absolutely stunning, so hey, you've got that :)

My thoughts will be with you through the surgery.

Oh .. and tell the hubby that a Saints helmet would look soooo much better in that space :D

Aw Francesca. I'm really sorry about your erosion. You have done so well and I know it's a bummer. Glad your insurance is paying for the removal though. Do you have a date yet? Keep us posted and you will be in my prayers.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
