Everyone please wish me luckkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!! Peace out****

Good morning Everyone! Today is the day that Dr. Liem's office will be sending my claim to the insurance company. I am very nervous about this. I am just hoping that I am "Approved" this first go around. I called United Health on Yesterday 07-10-03 just to see if I need an assigned PCP just in case that I am approved so that I can see them to get my blood work and other things done through them, they said I can just go to anyone that's networked through United Health...I was happy to hear that.. Well everyone please wish me luck, cause I am truly nervous.. Until the next update take care and please send your supports on my comments page Thanks.....ta ta*****

Until next time!!!!I have 11 days to go and i am counting down! :O)

My clothes are getting loose, My hubbie and everyone else is noticing the weight loss. And I have not had any back pain since I had this surgery. I am so thankful for that. I have to try to get my water, vitamins and exercise in on the regular, but so far I know i am doing good. Tata for now:O)
October 13, 2003 --1 month post op
Hello everyone out there in weight loss land! How's everyone doing? I of course am doing just fine.:O) I have not weighed myself since the last time I posted except on time and I think I have lost only 2-4 pounds since then. I am happy with the outcome, I just need to start my walking and vitamin intake on a regular basis. Though I do get my B-12 supplement in twice a week. I would like to wish my cousin luck who is getting ready to go through this process. She is currently waiting for her insurance cards to come through the mail. I would also like to wish everyone luck that is having surgery this month. I thank God for letting me reach my one month anniversary which was yesterday. I am so thankful...No
complicationss.....Well until next time everyone be blessed...:O)
October 21, 2003
Hey everyone how's it going? I am doing just fine. I just have to get on the ball with my walking and more exercise. I still have to get me some multivitamins because the vitamins I have is the Flintstone ones and they are just horrible. I am currently only taking the B-12 twice a week. I still havent gotten any type of protein powder or drink, I'm wondering if they have a protein pill you can take? If anyone reads this email me and let me know. When it comes to weight I am down about 30#s. I went to a support meeting last nite and it helped a little I thought when you had this surgery you would have to take protein for the rest of your life but you don't I see its mainly for the first year or so. And I also said to myself you would be surprised who has had this surgery. Well to everyone who is having surgery this month, May the lord be with you. And may you have an uneventful surgery. Until next time everyone be Blessed:O)

Nevertheless the Lord has been good to me and my family so I cannot complain. School will be out in 4 weeks so therefore I will be on maternity leave hopefully until October or the new year! Take care and be blessed! I promise to update before the baby comes! Take care and be blessed. (Ohh yeah I have only gained 6-8 pounds during this pregnancy) I am soo happy about that and the baby is healthy and on track! Take Care!!! :O)

"Sorry I havent been a good girl"!
I have been soooooooooooo busy since becoming a mommy for the sixth time. I must say that I am BLESSED! All is well! NO complications and I am holding steady at 132lbs......I am very happy with myself right now, or should I say that the breast do need to be done but not right now due to limited funding, but other than that, I cant complain shucks, I am healthy and thats what matters. The other children and hubby are great. I will update again and longer when I get the time, I just wanted everyone that visits my page to know that I am still alive. Take care and be blessed email me anytime.

Hello everyone! I know, I know, it has definately been a long time..I had a baby boy in July of 2005 and he is big and healthy. Da family is all and well and I am still complication free and I pray for a blessed year. I must admit that I am jumping on the band wagon with my vitamins because I have not been a good girl. I am currently saving to have my breast done. (Its really expensive) I hope everyone is well...And I will update at least once a month or as often as I can. I am currenlty weighing 142lbs sizes 5-7. I am no doubt happy...Hubbie is happie...And I couldnt ask for anything more. Everyone be blessed. I will be posting new pics within the month...So check back if you dare!!!
