Hi Cheryl...Yes, Kaiser is covering it at 100% how is that. Stop by the Cali board sometime and visit me there. this board is kind of slow these days. talk to you soon, Missy~~~365/149/145~~~already 10lbs below goal!

Great Job everyone! Add my -154 to the total of 1311 and you get 1,465 pounds gone forever!!! Congrats - makes me wanna jump for joy! Cheryl

Panniculectomy and abdominoplasty on Wednesday~~~I am so Excited I don't even have time to get nervous. It is being done a a Kaiser Facility in Bellflower,CA by Dr. Jason Robert Taylor...I have heard thruogh many peeps that he is one of the BEST PS surgeons in the California Region...That is comforting to know. I have worked very hard to lose 216 lbs and now it is time to continue with my Wonderful journey with PS. I have ****d my butt everyday by exercising,, walking and geting in enough protein for my current weight.( 85 grams total) Kicking up your exercise routine every other week will give you another jump on WL and keep you from Plateauing. Just wanted to share, Have a great week, Missy~~~

Welcome back, dear Donna! Your residents will love having you come back. Yes, I know you will be so shocked at how many of them have declined. I just lost two from my assisted living floor to our skilled nursing unit. Good that you're eating again. You know, the body DOES need food to function. Why don't you ask Dr. Koren to refer you to a nutritionist. ...That might get you back on track even more. Maybe you could see the woman who led our Nutrition class prior to surgery. Love you, Mary

Thanks Diana, Yes we very proud of our son. He has one more year of high school but will give one weekend a month to the Army. Ron don't feel I need to see the Endocrinologist but my Doctor wants me so I'll go. It's better to get everything checked out. Ron said your eating and feeling better so why a Doctor. My PCP feels I'm going through the change of life. I want to rule out any under lining problems. I might be feeling good right now but you never know. Might be having a good spell and BOOM I crash again. I was having bad mood swings and that's when I stopped eating and then started sleeping ALL day. I refused to get out of bed some days. It got to the point I would stay in bed for three or four days. Ron would come home and demand that I get out of bed NOW and feed me. Weekends he would take me out and refuse to let me go home as he knew I would go to bed. It was awful Donna
