Update..Still losing!!
on May 22, 2012 11:27 am

Heyy everyone,
  I just wanted to give a lil update on how im doing. Well I am down from 284lbs to 266lbs and im 3 wks post op!! Yaay me! I am loving my sleeve and am noticing that every week is not gonna b a 5 or 6lb loss week and its ok. I am happy to b losing anything at all bcuz if ut were not for my sleeve i'd b gaining or losing absolutely nothing! So Im happy.
  On another note I was recently struggling with eating too fast but i have now got that down pact. Also I am struggling with head hunger! b4 i thought this was crazy..how dont u know when ur really hungry? i thought. but it is really hard to control bcuz im used to eating any and everything i wanted to its a struggle to realize when im just being GREEDY! But all in all I am loving life, my clothes r getting baggier and Im still cute! LOL! PEACE!

My Surgery Date!!
on April 9, 2012 10:07 pm
Maryellen, thenurse at Dr. Castallanos' office, called me and said that.....drumroll please...... to say my date is April 30, 2012! I have my surgery date everyone!!!!!!! I am not so excited to say that its the day after my 35th birthday which means no drinking       :-{ and I love to drink especially on my bday! But its all worth it in the end! Im a lil nervous due to all the bad things i've heard, read, and saw on youtube... i know everyone is different but at the same time i must say im a lil worried that if something were to happen to me who would take care of my beautiful son! No worries its all gonna go well as long as I pray!

I hate waiting.....
on March 22, 2012 12:10 am

Ok so now we play the waiting game... I had my sleep study on 3/17.... got a call yesterday...all went well. So now I know for a fact that i dont have sleep apnea(which i already told them but anyway)....now we wait.. I have to wait 2 weeks to c the Dr. just so she can tell me the results. I mean cant they do that over the phone?? Save me some gas damn! Any way everything is now done and after i c the dr the nurse will submit my ppr wrk to the insurance company....then wait a lil longer for a surg date.... the nurse already told me that she would put me on the April surg list!!! YAAAYY ME!!!

            (i know this may have read a lil angry but im actually happy that its all over!!)

My Story

    Hey everyone my name is Nikki and I am hoping to have the Lapband surgery in a few months. I am currently weighing 293lbs and am extremely excited about having this surgery! I'm a new mom of the cutest 7 month old baby boy. I used to believe that surgery was a cop out because i was always able to go to the gym and drop the lbs i wanted to. But after i had my son the weight just wont come off and is now causing me health problems. I was never one to be unhappy with my weight because pre-baby i was anywhere between 234-245 which to most is really heavy but i was very happy with myself and the way i looked. Im expecting this surgery to assist me in a healthier, longer life for my son because he already can outrun me in his walker! LOL!
I'd really like to hear from people who have had the sleeve & lapband surgeries. I'd like to know any and all pros and cons of your surgery!!!!! only to give myself a heads up of what could happen.
