Hi,

I miss hearing from everyone.

I called my insurance company yesterday for my daughter. I wasn't going to ask but I had to.

They recieved my info on the 13th. Requested more info and got it on Monday.

So now I really have butterflies in my stomach!

I've had the attitude that I'm just going to sit back and wait it will all fall into place when it is suposed to. This is all in Gods hands and there is nothing I can do.....Well I know it's all in Gods plan, this whole WLS thing was his idea totally. I never had any intention of ever having surgery for WL. (Someday if any of you want to hear that story I'll be happy to tell you) So I know it will be approved, but I really want to know NOW!!

Trying to be patient!:)

Well I was thinking the same thing.

Good luck...you have such a good outlook that is will approved before you know it. Hopefully you will be close to having a date if not having one when we meet the end of month.

I have talked to a couple of people from another web site and have told them to feel free to join us. I told them they could get the details from here or if I have their email, I have just let them know.

Hope everyone is doing well...Oh my sister had a baby monday. I will have get pictures. It's a girl..Abby 8pounds 10 oz, everyone is doing great. Although she makes my 2 year old look huge now. :-( I want my baby back.

Have a great day!!!!

I'm hanging in there...I hate these antibiotics...i'm taking them regularly and haven't missed a dose but they generally make me feel like crap. And since I never figured out when I could eat Calcium I've mostly cut it from my diet. Never thought I'd miss string cheese so much! LOL.

Took the kids out to carowinds today, but the heat was too much, have had a headache all night. Not sure what I can take with the antibiotics so havent' taken anything. Think now that I have Karah in bed, I'm just going to try and sleep it off. At least I didn't burn.

Getting my hair done tomorrow, I'm a little nervous since I have given him freedom to do whatever to it. I'll try and post some pictures of the results.

My psych appointment is monday, going to stop by and find out if they can apply for insurance once the report is in. Surely they don't have to wait till after the retest for h pylori. (heheh I'm forever impatiant as always you see)

I may head to that sale you mentioned on the saturday we are all meeting. Tried Karah's school uniforms on her....too big. So going to have to look for her size in regular kakki and navy pants and skirts. I just hate that the uniform skirts were too big they were so darn cute. Oh well I bought the smallest size, she will grow into them eventually.

Oh Melissa I can't wait to see your new 'do!

Yucky stuff about the h-pylori. ewww. But, you will get through and get that band date soon!!

I get some of Rachel's uniforms at Goodwill. $2.50 for navy and kahki pants, and turtlenecks for winter. I just go alone and search every rack. Kind of a pain but get them home and wash them...good to go! That has really helped the budget. Then as she grows out of them, if I don't have someone to pass them along to, back to Goodwill they go! It helps if you have a school with uniforms near the Goodwill you go to...they usually stay pretty stocked up on the basics. Rachel starts August 25th. When does Karah start?

      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?

      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.
