hope things come out ok and you can have surgery good luck to you

Wondering how you are doing... hope you are ok...

I am glad you are feeling better! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Welcome sweetie good luck to you

congrats hope you feel better soon

I was wondering if there was anyone out there who had gout before surgery and wondering if the surgery helped them with gout or did it just stay the same? Thank you in advance. Gout is a form of artritis that is really painful. Would be totally relieved if it went away I really hope it does.

I never thought of the high protein diet actually triggering an attack. That sucks lol I am very careful to watch what I eat so I don't have an attack. I hope the surgery helps both of us! and Good luck to you as well

Thank you for your post it has affected me more than you know Thanks for helping me realize that I am worthy of this new gift of life. That I should be doing this for myself and not just for my kids because I deserve it. You are right about everything that you said. I think each pound of fat was a layer that someone had to get through so they couldn't hurt me. Well no more hiding here I come world. I deserve this lets do this! You made me realize that I am a hero for standing up for me and for fighting for me. My parents don't want me to get this surgery but I deserve it ! I don't want to be the victime anymore. I want to be strong. Thank you for your post you are truely an inspiration to us all!

This scaqres me because I already have thinning hair due to my medication for gout. If my hair also falls out due to weight loss I could imagine I will be bald. I am already using the generic form of rogaine at walmart it is only $8 for a month supply, but I will check out these other products. Thanks for all the wonderful advice even though I didn't post this lol

Ah the suspence is killing me will wait for more of your story......

Congrats on your date!

thank you guys for all the wonerful information. I can't wait to have this surgery. I think it is going to help me so much! Congrats to you both on your weight loss!

Glad you're surgery went so well! Congrats and leslie good luck tommorow!

I hope you feel better sweetie!

thanks so much for the reply I was beginning to think that I was the only one on here with gout. I hope the surgery helps my gout and where do you get black tart cherry extract? Thanks again for the reply.

You were the first thing I checked on when I came home from school. I immediately went to my computer to check on you. I hope you are not in too much pain! Sending some love your way! I am glad that you are ok.

I will be thinking of you today and praying everything goes well for you! Goodluck sweetie!

Congrats! Doing the happy dance with you!

I know how you feel both my parents are against me having surgery. It sucks! They have both told me that I need to lose weight, but at the same time they are not supportive of the surgery! Niether one of them are obese so they don't know what it is like! I can't even find a bra that fits me lol. I can barely sit comfortable in a movie theatre seat or ride on a roller coaster with my kids! Just like the theme song "Parent's just don't understand" I am 34 and still seeking aproval from them I must be nuts! I guess we all just want support from our parents. I guess they will see when I look better and look healthier and I am able to live a longer life for my kids. So I totally understand how you feel!

I am glad everything went so well for you! Congrats!

Poor thing I hope you feel better soon! I will send some prayers your way

Good job! Keep up the good work:)

Congrats to you!

Congrats! You look incredible! keep up the good work!
