Topic: RE: OMG the type of surgery bashing....
I do understand where you are coming from. Only you can make the decision what surgery is best for you.

I originally had the lap band.  Had major complications with my esophagus and the band.  When I decided to revise to the bypass I posted frequently about my surgery. Never had any negative post then 2 days before my surgery I had people who had duodenal switch post that I needed to look into the DS surgery and I was going to fail with the RNY.  I was devastated.  I blocked those people and never looked back.  I made the best choice for me!!!

i only weighed  218 when I had the bypass and there was no way my insurance was going to approve me for the DS and my insurance doesn't cover the sleeve yet.

Thanks ladies but that crappy day had nothing to do with apprehension or anyhting liek that. It was an outside "cancer" and causes me to get pissy and aggressive when I should have stepped back and let the "cancer" destroy themself. Yes it was a person and after so long of putting up with crap I had enough and went through the roof. So yea it has gotten better but not much. It will though.

Today is my son's 24th birthday!  Can't believe he's that old?!  We are having a special dinner at our house for him this evening so I've been out shopping for supplies.  That's about it for today.

I will jump for you too!  I just got approved last week for my surgery and I was so excited when I got the call, however, I can see where some people could be scared or apprehensive at the same time...hope you feel better after a good night's sleep!

ASL= american sign language?  OMG so sorry about your stuff. Are you sure they got bought out by another company or is it the same company under another name and made to look like they got bought out? Yes it sounds like a conspiracy but you would be surprised at how those things go.   I do so hope you get all of your stuff and hopefully they can comp you some or all of your money back, that total (excuse my language here) BULL****

My agenda is grocery shopping- done.
Cleaning- uh yea sure. I am still not in a good mood so maybe getting more active will help, we will see.

Making "fried" green tomatoes tonight. They are actually baked but the hubby can not tell the difference. LOL. I am allowed a bit of breading until next week so I am gunna take this chance and run with it. Gunna do the green tomatoes and probably a grilled steak or maybe chicken.

Hope everyone has had a good start to their weekend.

Hi all,

Going to an ASL group at the library today.  I need to get out more.  Found out yesterday that the moving company lost their credibility from the DOT due to too many customer complaints.  They were bought out by another company.  Channell 11 is going to do a story on our situation.  Maybe we will get our stuff soon. 

What's on your agenda?
