If I was still having my surgery in March, my tickets would only be a little over 200 for round trip. That's not bad at all!!

If it makes you feel better, there wasn't a special from any airport within a 5 hour driving distance of me. :) So...maybe you didn't miss out.

Where can I find a cheap airplane tickets because sw airlines talking 661 for a round trip ticket

I'm looking about every other day at tickets. The best airline/price is going to be so subjective...it depends on where you're flying from and when, in addition to how far in advance you are looking to book.

I've had reasonable success before going to whatever booking site you prefer (expedia, orbitz, kayak, etc) and setting up a daily notification for the flights you're looking for. I'll get them for a week or two and then have an idea of what a ticket usually costs, then attempt to get the best deal I can within the timeframe I need.

It's sort of luck of the draw, though...sometimes you'll pay more than you want because it's the time of the year or another factor you can't control.

I lived in Bristol/Abingdon Virginia for ten years! I love it there. Very beautiful :)

I live outside of Richmond. Lived in the state most of my life, but new to this area. I like it pretty well.

Southwest has good deals for sure BUT.... if you're very fat.... Like more than a BMI of 45ish... you need to be careful with them. They will sometimes approach customers before boarding and charge you for an extra seat EVEN IF YOU DON'T need it.. EVEN if you can squish yourself against the window and not take up your seatmates space... EVEN IF YOU ARE TRAVELING WITH A COMPANION and your companion ENJOYS being squished by you... They have still been known to charge fatties for two seats... then if the flight is not full, you can request a refund. Their reasoning behind this is that it's cattle call boarding and they can't guarantee that you'll be able to sit next to your seatmate and may wind up squishing a stranger.

DeeJack, do you live in a jet blue city? I got a good price from them.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
