Topic: RE: As I see it.
I guess I'd better put a disclaimer on that:
We are not going to blow up the Aetna or any other building. I'm just frustrated at my insurance which will not do what it is supposed to do.
Ok, I'm going to bed now.
Topic: RE: Anybody heard from Beth G?
I just called her and talked to her husband. Beth was at work. She went to the ER yesterday. The doctor gave her some medicine. She's still in pain, but did go to work.
Her husband sounded SO supportive of her and loving. She's fighting her insurance company like me. It's crazy the way the insurance company's treat us.
I'm hoping we all get approved very soon.
Love,
Joni

Topic: As I see it.
Hi, Interest Group,
I have had some interaction now with most everyone in the group. Then when I had a few questions, people took the time to address them. In depth. Which I appreciate so much. Even Kim, before she left on vacation, took the time to respond.
Anyway, that got me to thinking about how nice everyone in this group is and I believe I know why everyone is so kind and willing to reach out to others.
People in this group were or are considered 'morbidly obese.' Because we were not able to just get by with our looks (like some of the skinny, self-absorbed women we meet), we have developed strength of character in areas that are so much more important.
Once WLS is over with, you guys are pure dynomite.
I love you people.
Jacquie

I love you honey -- keep your chin up!
Topic: RE: A couple of questions . . .
Hey Jacquie!! I don't know if we have officially met or not, but I am Linda. I had my surgery on May 6th of 2004. It has been the best thing for me. And guess what, I drink carbonated beverages. I also eat breads. In fact I cannot drink milk now cause it upsets my stomach and water nauseates me. I have no problem drinking the diet cokes. I don't drink the real cokes, but just the diet. Bread I eat mostly toasted, but I do eat pizza (I cooked homemade pizza tonight), I still have standwiches and all. I eat pasta. I haven't really found anything that I cannot eat. I can have milk in foods I cook. Some doctors do not want you drinking carbonated beverages. I think you have to do what is best for you. I started out at 250 pounds in a size 22. Now I weigh 130 pounds and where a size 4/6. I have figured out that for me I wanted to try everything and if it made me sick I would not eat it again or try it again later sometime. You have to do what is best for you. Good luck and I am here for ya....

PS--For breakfast I had some fried potatoes (I love them and just had to have some leftovers) and some coffee
LUnch--well didn't really have lunch...I snacked on some chips.
Supper--I had a slice and half of cheese pizza (extra thin) and then I had some cookie that my kids baked and decorated for my hubby today. I plan on eating again before bedtime. I feel like I eat all day long . I just don't eat that much of it.
