So I decided to call the billing center at CCMH. They told me even if I hadn't called that they couldn't stop me from having surgery. But I told them my mom would call friday and let them know how to do the payments etc. The lady said she was just going to put down in my account that we were going to pay 10-50 dollars at the end of october and continue to make payments each month. She said that way they wouldn't send it to collection. Nice lady. :thumbdown:

Froggi- Can you believe the things they'll print about WV?! I'm glad you called. They're pretty nice about letting you make payments. I had to do that 8 years ago when I had my son. Hope your Protein Powder works out for you!

Nascarfan- I hope your surgery went well! You're probably just getting settled into home about now. :thumbup:

Non-scale victory to report ladies.... I went shopping tonight for a new outfit. I have a meeting in Columbus this Friday and none of my clothes really fit anymore. I am super excited to say that for the first time in over 10 years I was able to shop in the misses section and not the plus size section!!!! I got a pair of pants in a size 17/18. I was a size 24 in March. Woo Hoo!!!:drool:

Lol Kyla yeah I was laughing so hard when I read that story. I got the mail today and had another bill but this was from radiology place in parkersburg lol it is a bill for 2 dollars and 18 cents. Not too worried about that one:lol:

Thanks so much for bringing me your left over protein powder. I opened the vanilla and it smells good but I opened the unflavored one and oh boy it stinks.:w00t: It was nice to finally meet you. You're so pretty and so small now!!! Congrats on the nonscale victory dear!! In no time you will be at goal. I can't wait to join you in bandland!!:cursing:

If anyone is interested in getting some more exercise in.........I attend a Zumba Gold class every Monday at 7pm. Its $5 per class. (And if you google Zumba.......that is not what its like.....lol Zumba Gold is a toned down version of Zumba....its for people who have knee problems, dont exercise as much, etc.) Its a great workout and the people there are really nice. Trust me....I dont enjoy going to an aerobics class where there are tons of skinny people and I leave feeling fatter than ever! lol (Good times!) People arent frowned upon if you need to march in place to catch their breath.

Anyways....if anyone is interested.......im there every Monday. :cool2:

I'm trying to picture me and my oversized belly doing this... EEeekkk

OMG! Belly dancing would be a BLAST! I would so do that! If I ever see a class around here...I'll do it......provided that I can wear a long t-shirt. I would just be doing it for the exercise...I dont need my gut hanging out for all to see! lol

I hear it gives you killer abs! :cool2:

Froggi- You're welcome for the powder. I hope you will be able to use it. Thanks for the compliments. :cool2: You'll be in bandland before you know it!

WVU-Fan- I would love to go to the class with you! That would be awesome. I love aerobics, but never go to classes, because I've been too embarrassed. Where is the class at?

Elizabeth- Jeannie had talked about a clothing swap at the group meetings. I could bring some things to the next one if you're going to be there.

      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.
