Hi Mandi, Got a question for ya.

When you e-mailed the nurses at the clinic, how long did it take to get a response???

I e-mailed them 3 days ago, and I havent heard back, that seems weird to me. When I e-mailed Dr. Cobourn back in the summer, I got a response by the end of the day, same with Marie.

Hey Cloe,

Just to let you know I left a msg with Dr. C's office last week and it took them a while to get back to me. In fact I just heard back from them yesterday. I think the reason it is taking them a while to get back to people is because Dr. C just started back at work this week from his holidays and I think they are also in the process of moving the office if I remember correctly. Anyway just trying to ease your mind. :lost1.5lbs:

I emailed them that night.. no response yet. Guess I didn't really ask anything, just told them my most recent weight.

Anyone see this before!? http://www.lapband.ca/Cityline-WM.wmv I was like "COOOOOLL!!!!!" Got to show Dr. Cobourn to Dan, and the office, and the recovery room, and everything! Neat for anyone who's not yet met Dr. C.

no one wants to see Dr. Cobourn video!?

Wow... I don't think my thread has been on the 2nd page since I started it.

I had a crappy day today. Could barely eat anything. We went for dinner, because Dan had a free 'individual pizza/pop' coupon for Boston pizza. I didn't know what to have, because NOTHING was staying down. (think it started with trying to swallow a tylenol when I first woke up)

I started with hot chocolate, and after I was almost done, thought it had been a big mistake. Then my french onion Soup came... I ate around all the bread and cheese.... then POOF, things were good. I ate almost all my soup, and was ready for more. Pretty proud of myself.

Anyways.... the thing I wanted to say was: there was this girl in a booth across from us. I watched her a bit, and told Dan, that when we left, to check her out, and tell me if that was about the size I was. Cause I thought it was... or at least pretty close. When he saw her, he asked if I was kidding. I said no. He said that she was about the size I was six months ago. How screwed up AM I!?

I went to Pennington's again today in search of my most favorite bra, in a smaller size. Didn't get a hello, or anything from any of the sales ladies. It's really weird... I feel shunned there, and have the last few times I was there. Then I go into a couple 'normal' stores, and feel the same thing there. I haven't TRIED on anything in any of the normal stores, cause I know I won't fit anything there. Can't win either way.

Hi Mandi,

I actually tried watching the video, but my stupid dial-up there was no-way. I would have been uploading it for months. Too bad, I would have liked to watch it.

Hey, you know, 188, isn't that big. I'm sure you can go in to normal stores and get stuff. Ya gotta go in with attitude, girl!!! When I got married, One Thousand years ago, I wore a size 12 wedding dress, I weighed 172. Thats just around the corner for you.

BTW.....we want recent pics from you!!!! You looked drop-dead gourgeous last time. Can't imagine how you look now. We may not be able to talk to you anymore, yaknow.:)

Argo,

Go to a normal store. I bought a vest at Le chateau a few weeks ago- it was an XL but I was jumping up and down like crazy. So... go and enjoy!!!

Good gawd Mandi...go and try some stuff on in the "normo" stores....I can fit into some of the stuff so YOU DEFINITELY can!!!!

BTW, Penningtons is having a sale with ridiculously low prices right now!!! We were driving by one yesterday and I saw the sign and read it out loud (but more to myself) and Mr Yoda (thinking I was hinting - which I wasn't) pulled into the parking lot. I said "whatcha doin'?" and he said, "you now have some empty hangers in your closet and you need to fill 'em up" (I had been putting "big" things away in a bin for a later giveaway). Isn't he awesome! So, we went in and I cleaned them out man!!! I got 11 clothing items for a total of $140 (incl tax). I totalled them up separately when I got home and it came to just over $450!!!! YEEEEHAAA!

One of the things I got was a beeeeeautiful pant suit (I'm calling it my "power pant suit"); very professional looking and....it was a size 14!!!!! OMIGAWD!!! Granted it was snuggish and I wouldn't feel comfy wearing it but 10 more lbs and it will be comfy! Some of the tops I got were an "X" ...not even a 1X.

Happy happy NSV!!!

and I love Mr Yoda!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
