Do stretch marks go away? I've had them for about 5 years, some newer than others but my whole stomach is covered cause basically all my weight is in my tummy and boobs. Which brings me to the next question. I have DDD when you ladies lose weight do the boobs shrink? Or just become inflated flabby balloons...I really hope I won't have to wear a few bras to hold all the skin...

I don't have money for surgery i don't have money for surgery =\

I must have like 50 marks on my stomach.. Everywhere but my belly button...sucks that they never go away:(

The study doesn't work on my because I am nocturnal

So I have ADHD and cannot sleep at night with out meds.. I also have mood stabilizers so are you allowed to bring and take those during you hospital stay?

I mix it with fruit or peanut butter lol

The only way I can eat fish is smothered in ketchup or with rice >.< I'm going to be so miserable

i can't stand most fish but the kinds I do like I like with rice because it takes some of the fishy taste away

oh I didn't know about the sugar and mayo

They gave me two packets to fill and one was for the bariatric team to approve or deny me the other was to take to my first appointment if approved. I'm assuming its for them to see if my insurance even covers my surgery if I fell into all the requirement cause it asked for my insurance information and what kind of health issues I have. If anyone else or everyone else had to do this how long does it usually take for them to get back to you? On the paper it said applications are done in order of received and I filled mine out at the seminar but just curious.

This is kinda unrelated but did you get flabby skin? I'm 5'2" and 260 so we are kinda the same. Really sorry to hear you are having troubles now.

Yeah....I always over worry myself and am pessimistic, that way if things don't go right I don't feel as bad lol

I hate trick questions....they have a test to apply for walmart and I took it just to see if I could pass and I failed..twice...I'm not a people person but I did one with my own answers then one with what I thought was right...so the eval worries me because I'm actually on ssi for mental disorders...nothing psychotic but it still worries me lol

I'm afraid of the IUD cause I hear If you haven't had kids they have to inspect to see if its going to fit right but I don't want anything falling out or going through walls >.< I have never had kids so I chose the shot but I have been on it for years and If used for a long time it can cause bone density. So idk what to use now, I hated the ring and I can't remember pills lol

Thanks so much! I'm actually same hight but weigh a bit more so this give me a general idea..I'm sure ill have more tummy flab but hopefully since ill only be 21 age will be on my side! Are your boobs still droopy? Mine are DDD so I expect ill need a boob lift if I can afford it >.< you look great though! Congrats!

Congrats on all that weight lost btw! Great job

I totally get how you feel. If I have extra skin I will feel worse than being fat but at least you are getting healthy! Does your insurance not cover it period or did they not think you really needed it?

Well congratulations anyways!

Does your insurance cover the skin removal?

My doctor is on bored I saw her today and lucky me there is a seminar today and I'm all signed up for that..sadly my insurance requires to to lose 20-30 pounds so I'm going to struggle with that. Any one have suggestions besides listening to my dietitian?

Not really for me it's about being happy for the past year my bf and I have had sex maybe once not cause the sex is bad but because it doesn't make our relationship. He's just happy to be with me.

Yeah sex is not the most important thing in the world people lol

how long did it take you?

I recommend premier it's the only pre made shake ill drink 30 grams protine, 160 calories and 5 grams of carbs

I actually prefer bigger men. My bf is 6'3" 352 pounds
