I've only met with Dr. Harrington once (office visit) and attended 1 information group that he participated in. He is very professional and very nice. His office staff is great!!

Thursday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

Post-Op Frustration
on December 9, 2007 6:02 am

Ok so here I am not eating and not losing weight. I lost 15 pounds in the first 10 days and now nothing. What's the deal? I hardly eat because those nasty protein shakes fill me up so what's up with not losing?

My Day is Finally Coming

I'm so excited I can't sleep. After going back and fourth with Cigna and having my surgery rescheduled 2 times, I've finally gotten my approval. I'm going in at the butt crack of dawn on Tuesday for my RNY!! I just can't wait.

Well here I am all dressed up for the ball and no pumpkin in sight. I'm scheduled to have my surgery this Thursday, November 1st and still have not received my approval yet. Can a sista get an answer one way or the other?? It's really starting to drive me crazy. Jackie from my surgeons office all but guaranteed that I'd get approved on Friday but I'm getting to the point where that's not good enough. I know she's working as hard as she can on it but I'm getting really frustrated. Hopefully, she'll call this afternoon with some good news.
