Topic: Checking in again!!
Hi my Michigan friends!!
I wanted to come on here and let you all know I am doing GREAT still. Loving life and enjoying all my pretty clothes!!
I go to my first appointment this coming Monday in Flint for my tummy tuck and hopefully a boob job!! I'm soooooo excited. This doctor takes my insurance YAY!! My hubby's cousin had him and she liked him. I'm excited. She said that from the time of her first appointment to the day of her surgery it was only about a month!! So, heres to hopeing I don't have to wait a year or anything for my insurance to approve it.
Please keep me in your prayers and thoughts as my extra skin is rather depressing and affecting my love life (sorry if too much info ~ but I am finding it hard to be intimate with my hubby due to the extra skin and saggy boobies!!).
Well, take care you all!!
God Bless,
Tari
PS Oh, have any of you heard of or dealt with Dr. Abd Alghanen out of Flint????

Try adding Protien powder to your yogert. like vanilla w/vanilla pwdr it will increase your protein intake and help satify you. if you add a little splenda into it it will taste like cheese cake. Then try it with cottage cheese in a blender when your allowed to it is super delious too.

Topic: RE: Good Tuesday Morning!
Hey Ya'll...
Thanks for the warm thoughts Mary...I pop in from time to time, it has been crazy here at work. It seemed like the board was taking a break. I have been real disappointed in myself. I have gained almost 25 pounds since my surgeries last year for breast cancer. I am wondering if it could be the med they have me on. It seems like the weight has all gathered around my middle where I never had it before.
Will have to work on it soon..the weather needs to cooperate so I can get outside and walk .
Everyone take care....

Topic: RE: What's happening in Michigan today?
Hump day in MI. What's going on today? Many public schools start their spring breaks Friday, if you have kids in one of them what are you planning? Nothing planned for us, another spring break in wonderful West Michigan.

13.5 lb lost before surgery
I know it doesn't seem like it initially but this time really does fly by.
Before you know it you'll be eating small amounts of regular foods and feeling satisfied.
Good luck to you.

Topic: RE: Henry Ford Support groups..
talk to Renate Eberhard
they have a group on FB too and one on Yahoo.
I am not involved with those groups
Seems that they are more geared toward clickiness and I didn't feel very supported.
I did like Dr. Eshelmens group on the third Tues of the month better. Dr. E seems to keep the group focused better.
Take care. and best of luck on your journey!
