    Hard Work Pays Off ♥️

    The first and last love is to love yourself! Never in a million years did I ever picture myself wearing such dress. I loved it and how I felt in it. Amazing feeling to experience. When your confident in each step, it shows and it attracts so many good things. One of the most memorable days of my life [emoji813]️

    Sleep Apnea and Anesthesia

    If you think about it, they're so many obese people like me with obstructive sleep apnea that have surgery. They see it all the time. As long as you have a good surgical team that you are confident in, you'll do great. That put me at ease real quick. When I went to the surgery room and got on the surgery table, they propped my upper body up and that when I first fell asleep they could quickly intubate me and get the show on the road. Looking back to two days ago, I had absolutely NOTHING to worry about because I trusted my team and expressed ALL of my fears and concerns. You'll do great. Be confident with the team you chose to perform life changing surgery on you. Good luck. You got this. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

    I would talk to your insurance company first before doing anything drastic. I gained a few lbs (harder than it sounds) to meet their criteria. Then, I found out I had to have a 3 year history of bmi over 35 with comorbidities or 40 without. Plus, I couldn't drop below 35 during the 4 month supervised diet or they'd deny me. So, I basically wasted time gaining, then had to go self pay and lose what I had just gained. Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Having hard time sleeping

    Nope. You didn't hurt anything. Next time you want to try foods, stick with the next foods on your list. Try a little oatmeal or yogurt....leave the pecans for a while down the road:)

    Yay, go us!! We can do it! I need to sit down and figure out what I can realistically pay off in a year, but I'm doing a big chunk at least, dammit! Thanks!! I'm feeling really stuck right now and old habits are creeping back because of stress of money and my sweet little fur baby is very sick and doesn't have long left. I find myself going to the gym less and less the last few months, just enough to get a reimbursement for my membership from work (10 sessions per month). I have on my schedule to go 4 times per week, I'd like to get back to that!

    We've been around since 2003. I've seen many members and groups come and go. Most are very supportive and I'm glad we've been a part of their WLS journey. There are always a few bad apples that try to ruin things for everyone. We banned a group of members a few months ago and I have to say the site has definitely become more supportive and taken on a friendlier tone. Please report any topic you suspect has been created by someone that's just trying to bait our members. We will investigate and take immediate action if warranted.

    It's already started.

    I've been married to my husband for 30 years. I'm not really worried about him having a problem with me being more independent. I did tell him I worry that if I want to go out and do stuff he wouldn't want to because we both enjoy our computer time. He says he's willing to go do anything I want to as long as we do it together. That says and means a lot to me. I'm glad he's in my life.
